Hey there. Felt like this was a good place to flex my meaningless video game knowledge. Anything I should know? For example, if there a reason a page hasn't been made for Jack Thompson?
 
Yay for first impressions.

Welcome to Giant Bomb.  
 
Jack Thompson doesn't have a page here because only people credited with creating games have pages.

@Br3adfan: Hmm. I see. People-wise, game developers only? Explains why Yahtzee has an article and the James Rolfe doesn't?
 
EDIT: Peas confirmed my suspicions. Glad to have gotten that bit understood. On to editing crap.

I think the policy is that if credited in a game your allowed a page, which is why Jeff has a page since he was credited in a Guitar Hero game (though there are always pages for the Giant Bomb crew that get deleted and then put up again).
 
Things like concepts and objects also have pages which is why there is a hamburger page and a Jedi

Welcome to Giant Bomb! It's a website... about video games.
 
Have fun editing, but don't try to get addicted to it. I've said it before: You have me to thank for the gazebo page.

  Jeff is god around here, if you don't like that fact or don't like him, you might as well leave right now. got it? ok, lets move on.

Also when editing pages you must wait for them to be approved by a moderator, but once you earn 1,000 points you are able to submit changes to a page instantly
