Refs
[edit]This page needs refs, even for the simple stuff we have here already. For example, is it true that Tom is more famous for the games than he is for being the creator of NG.com? We can use NG as a ref for anything which is not controversial, such as basic biographical details, but it would be nice to get some info about Tom which is ref'd from elsewhere.
Read wiki info on Biographies of Living people before working on this page. I am surprised it has not been imediately deleted, as it has no refs, but I am glad it hasn't.

Next Steps to build page
[edit]- Ah, somebody got some refs- thanks Not all NG refs either, nice.
- Nice little box of info, what else goes in it?
- Has the child got a name yet?
- Non-copyright photo anyone?
- Any other cat.s?
- more links?
- I will change the 'most famous for' section to state that he is most famous for creating NG in a few weeks, unless evidence is shown otherwise, since his name is plastered throughout NG and has been for more years than Behemoth has been in existance.

- I tried to pm Tom about his salary, actual birth name, religion and a picture we could use, but he hasn't responded. Unless we find a ref, it'll be difficult to fill the infobox past what we have now. No news on his son's name either. —LedgendGamer 00:28, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
Family
[edit]I'm fairly certain that him having a son was an April fools joke. I propose waiting until after today to add the section to this article. Also, i believe we maybe should merge this article with the main Newgrounds article for the mean time, until we can really flesh this out one.
- NO, this article is about Tom Fulp, not NG. His work for Behemoth indicates that info on him already goes beyond the NG page. We have waited long enough for this page. By having this page, we will encourage people to talk more about Tom. The only reason there is not more info here is that one must write biographies of living people carefully on Wiki and I insist on refs for everything- which is why you can see evidence of his family! If you wish to help, please do join in. As you can see we would like more about Tom, including, for example info on his TV appearances, which again are not about NG.
- Best Wishes,

EDIT: UNLESS i am misinformed. I have just learned of this today, as he just posted in the news section today about it. If anyone has any solid proof before April 1st of this, i'll be happy to eat my own words. ZoterX (talk) 09:19, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
- Why didn't you just look at when the information was added? Its all in the History of the article. Since your evidence for not believing the refs given was that his wife is called April, you don't seem to be exactly an expert on the subject. Looks like its time for some alphabeti spaghetti!
- Never mind, its all a bit of fun.

- Its just occured to me- Tom didn't marry April Fulp, she became A Fulp after her married her- anyone know what her maiden name was?
- IceDragon64 (talk) 21:41, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
- Is anyone up for merging this with the Newgrounds article, seeing as this is a stub? If not, you can get more information in his biography from newgrounds.com.
- Also, i apologize for the thinking it was an april fools thing, the entire BBS was saying it was, so i assumed, also, it was.

- Actually, a good chunk of the concrete information in here is already taken from his biography. It's difficult to extrapolate information from an autobiography (especially one written largely in point form) and make it into encyclopedia content. —LedgendGamer 07:30, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
Fixed the Problem
[edit]Redirected the page to Newgrounds. --Computer97 (talk)
visitors & joke edits
[edit]I noticed this showed up on the Article Feedback dashboard - a sign it's been read a lot more recently than normal. The last two days saw a lot of silly vandalism; added a 1-day semi-protection.
Update Photo
[edit]Is there no better suitable image that actually showcases Fulp's face? Yaevinnn (talk) 13:34, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
