Can I clear out part of "my answers"?

I'm fairly new to Yahoo Answers & can't find this in the help section. Once a question is resolved can I clear it from the "my answers" section & how is that done? I find the questions so interesting, but my answer list is already getting out of control. I would like to keep those that aren't resolved yet until I see what the best answer is. Thanks for any help.

Update:

I don't mean to take them out of the Yahoo data base, only to clear my own answer section in my profile. Thanks!

    Your list can't be cleared. What you should do is put any pending Q&A in the watchlist. You can delete from there when resolved.

    That's because you can't do that. You can only delete OPEN questions. Once in voting or resolved, questions and answers belong the to YA database and can't be removed by you.

    You can only delete open question or answers, if they have gone to the vote or resolved they cannot be removed.

    The questions and answers stay in yahoo archive available for searching and browsing. only yahoo can delete them.
