Change of Infobox

I've noticed that the infobox on this page is not the YouTube personality infobox. Should that be changed? To me, it seems like it would make more sense and match other let's play channels. Just curious what everyone else thought. Claffeylp (talk) 19:28, 4 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

changes to format section?

it seems like the format section could be subdivided to describe the format of the main episodic series first and in more detail, and then under their own subheadings, info about the show formats for other series from the channel including game grumps vs, guest grumps, the 10 minute power hour, and stream train. Perhaps table flip can also be included, in alignment with the relevant discussion above. if this is done, it might be best to indicate the article scope as Game Grumps as a YouTube channel, instead of just the Game Grumps as a specific let's play series.

Primary Sources - Game Grumps

Since apparently EthanRossie2000 reverted my "Primary Sources" tag once again, I decided to add inline tags to the article itself as I assume I wasn't specific enough.

I added Original Research tags to the Format section, as there were statements which appear to imply a conclusion or synthesis without any actual source (like these sentences specifically: "Lengthier games often result in ongoing series... there are some special episodes with Hanson or Avidan on their own").
I also filled up many statements that seemed more factual in nature but didn't have a source with "Citation Needed" tags. The History section especially had plenty of these. I also proceeded to tag statements sourced to primary references appropriately, such as in the History and Philanthropy sections.
And finally, I added "Primary Sources" templates to both the Guest Grumps and Video Games sections, as those sections were almost entirely sourced to YouTube videos or Tweets.

Editors, please find reliable secondary sources for the problems I discussed in this article. Do not remove these templates until these issues are resolved. PantheonRadiance (talk) 20:52, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
