  • “Why does…” questions about everyday experiences

  • Explanations of how common systems work

  • Lifestyle insights and everyday habits

We do not publish:

  • Medical diagnoses or treatment plans

  • Legal, financial, or professional advice

  • Time-sensitive news or speculative content

3. Content Creation Process

All content on WhyAsked.com follows a structured editorial process:

  1. Topic Selection

  2. Research & Drafting
    Writers use general knowledge, widely accepted information, and publicly available educational resources to explain topics clearly.

  3. Neutral Language Review
    Content is reviewed to ensure it uses cautious, non-absolute language such as may, can, often, and in some cases.

  4. Editorial Review
    Articles are reviewed for clarity, tone, structure, and adherence to this policy before publication.
