Hm. Well, I didn't know I could contribute normally, but then again I feel like if I won't if I don't feel the responsibility of a role. I'm unsure now.

Haha you're same as me. I would like to contribute but on my own terms and not feel contrived to do it all the time. Just have the access and update what I want whenever I want.

Yes any user can add things to the database, though unless you're a GameDB Admin then most of your changes will go into a job queue for approval/rejection by Admins before they show up on the game pages.

You can always wait for the GameDB to go live and try your hands at making some contributions - if you take to it then we'll no doubt need more GameDB Admins further down the line (and the most active contributors tend to be invited to join the team anyway). If not, then at least you didn't go through the process of signing up only to not do anything.

Perfect, I'll wait 'til the GameDB is up. 

Just for the sake of clarification - I have a few quick questions

1) Is the GameDB somewhat linked to GameWise? I don't understand yet the role of Gamewise with this site. Is this like a Wiki?

2) How do I submit suggestions for changes in the database? Directly to GameDB admins?

3) Does the Database only include the main page of the game? (e.g. if I click on Wii Sports, it brings me to the Wii Sports game page with sales, the game overview which includes a banner and a short description). Do I submit changes only for this page?

4) What do you intend (all admins) to fix with the new GameDB? Format? Adjustments? New display?

Maybe they're not so quick questions after all lol
