Thanks Jer!, we need entries such as this

Please keep up the feedback on how to improve/tweak these. Either via PM or right here is fine too. I'm sure any wiki writer can benefit from it.

The entry is perfectly fine as it is Jer, but here goes some feedback as to how you (or any other member) could improve this article:

Info about his style & influences, discography, gear he uses, pictures of his albums, comments about his most famous albums/songs, formations of his bands, more pics, related GMC lessons (if any), etc. Stuff like that is always nice.

When inserting pictures it's sometimes nice to make them thumbnailed:

[[Image:Ronniejamesdio.jpg|thumb]]
That would make the picture appear thumbnailed on the right floating over the text, but very small.

[[Image:Ronniejamesdio.jpg|thumb|right|300px]]
That would make it thumbnailed on the right with a width of 300 pixels.

[[Image:Ronniejamesdio.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Dio]]
That is the same as before, with a title saying "Dio" at the bottom of the picture.

Also, when creating large articles we can easily create a nice floating index box, that is achieved by making titles along the article, in between "=" signs, like this:

=History=
ahaDJHSJDHJHSD
SDSBDKJASD
SDJASBDJSD

=Discography=
sjdjsnfdsf
sadsdsadsf
sdasdsdd

=Members=
sdsaasdsfsfd
dfsdfsdf
dfsdfsf

At least three titles are needed for the box to appear, if I remember correctly. You can make automatic subtitles in the index box by adding extra "==" symbols.

Again, the article was just fine!, try some new ideas in your next one if you wish, take it easy
