This Question-Answer section in ResearchGate is indeed quite valuable and helpful for the members.
My question is: How the Researchgate members can make it more potential for each other. My personal opinion is that the Questions and Answers both should be in simple, easy and understandable way since members from a variety of background read, reply and raise questions. Even the very technical and specialized aspects may also be tried to be presented as simple as possible.
The real purpose of this communication is to help others in understanding the aspects not clear/ or not known to others and hence, enhance the knowledge and awareness of each other.
The second thing that I feel important is that we should also recommend a question or an answer or answers of other members if we show our admiration in our answer.
Sometimes, a question or an answer is admired too much while answering, but it is not recommended or followed. If a certain Answer or a question is not liked by someone, opinion can be given without following or recommending that Answer or a question. My emphasis is to appreciate someone if his/ her Answer or Question is interesting, valuable and helpful.
Furthermore, while raising a question, a little more background for a question in certain questions might help others to Answer since people and especially our high level expert Research gate members are quite busy and it might be helpful for them if we give enough explanation of our question, explain what precisely we need to know, and write our own personal opinion to certain extent (if we know about that) to make easy for them to quickly reply. I mean, our purpose is always to acquire knowledge from others and provide knowledge to others instead of checking their knowledge as it is not an examination session. My view is that a question as more clear as possible may help the members to reply to the point and to the intended aspect.
What is your opinion about what I presented my personal views? You may mention your own views or may add other aspects that might help better for enhancing the communication benefits among the Researchgate members via QUESTION-ANSWER section.
Many regards.
Dear Zahir,
Your observations are commendable. Of course, all of us on this platform benefit immensely from the research-driven questions posed on this platform and we enjoy the great insights offered by professionals and even academic amateurs through their answers. If questions are rid of difficult terminologies and technicalities, I think it will aid researchers and scholars from different backgrounds to comprehend while adding their contributions.
Also, I am of the view that 'outsiders' of a particular research field can provide powerful insight, a different lens that scholars in the academic discipline may not have envisioned. I appreciate a multidisciplinary approach to issues of life and the pluralistic perspectives would offer the greatest solution to the challenges of life and provide a better world for humanity.
As an educationist and anthropologist, I am of the view that motivation is key to aiding people to give out their best. Therefore, if they are on the right path or not, their efforts must be appreciated and corrected if necessary. Based on this premise, I would humbly suggest that all views expressed by all learned colleagues be appreciated while accurate views recommended providing the right lens for all of us.
Let us keep our questions concise, let our answers be informative, detailed (if the need arises) and helpful. A little research aside from the personal experiences with the question could also add a flavor to our answers.
Thank you all scholars on this platform for your powerful opinions to change the world and make it a better place.

Dear Zahir Hussain,
You are absolutely right. I agree with you completely.
I suggest to ask and answer the questions in a simple way. I mean, in such a way that every researcher, professor or participant here could deal with the issue. Also, if you think the question could be beneficial to the majority of the participants because it is relevant, important, helpful, then it could be recommended, not only the question as such but any answer or answers as well.
Best of luck,
Litart
Dear Litart Litarature
I completely agree with you. Researchgate is a great facility for all members; and questions and answers beneficial for the majority of members could especially be recommended.
Many thanks for your valuable suggestions.

An improvement I would like is to return to the size of letter that existed before because the last months the letter size has disminussed. This is not an advantage.

Dear Dr. Zahir Hussain
My thought about getting an improvements in the questions-answers section is by dividing this section into sub-sections (five or six) according to the main topics.
I think this will decrease the time exerted in searching knowledge from a specific line of science.
Best wishes to all.
Dear Prof. Hussain,
I agree strongly with your personal views as well as the views of the colleagues, concerning the question. Saving time, efficiently, for both questioners and respondents, as pointed out by dear Dr. Al-Sherrawi, is a noticeable point.

Hi,Dear Dr. Zahir Hussain, I totally agree with you. Thanks for your very good question and your subtle and sound explanation and suggestions.

The best way for developing this issue is by asking and answer a question which is related to your or other's research work
