    Hello I had a look at your answers just now.

    I think your answers are very good. and you are certainly one of the better answerers here :-)))

    Your answers are clear and well written....

    You answer a question fully..and don't give 'dunno answers..

    You seem to answer on personal experience and prior knowledge, in subjects where you have a specialism.

    You don't answer any question, only those where you can actually help the asker:-))

    And you have a polite and sympathetic manner towards the questioner.

    All these are very good points.

    There is only one thing I can suggest to improve your 'performance' is to give more links.....

    For example you question on HIV..was an excellent answer but an authoritative link would have added to the answer.

    Askers like links, because it means that they can have a further search on the topic themselves, and it also gives something to back you up.....

    As for percentage..I think you are a relatively new user..and your percentage will increase when many of your questions come out of voting. (Unfortunately many people let their questions slide into voting)

    Keep up the good work, and good luck :-)

    You are the kind of user Yahoo answers needs..and I'm sure that many of the people you whose questions you answer appreciate your answers :-))))

    Source(s): Here is a blog on wriiting good answer..by Jane Furrows (One of the current leaders). This should give you some more suggestions!! http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-Ccq25xE5fr9Q60NkjJA... This answer by Draciron..is also very good on a simular topic to yours http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ar...
