Answers wikis hadn't been supported in a long time. IIRC, the tons of small pages with senseless questions hampered overall SEO performance. And be honest, Questions was useful in the day, but improved search and forums/feeds and chat have replaced the need for it. That also has a notification feature so people actually know when it's answered. People who have a question just ask it on the main wiki.

I've briefly helped out a different language Answers wiki, and half of the questions were requests for popular YouTubers' home addresses (with every imaginable spelling mistake and tons of unimaginable ones). The other half of the questions could all be answered with "use google, it's faster". Nobody reads the questions, or answers, except a poor admin wasting their time cleaning it up months or years later.
