If we honestly allowed pages for newbies, it's the only thing people would be doing. They would go off on the MB's to find thousands of newbies and all they would be doing is making hundreds of thousands of pages on some user who ONCE commented on that ONE topic. People would be taking advantage of this rule and would be making dozens of pages a minutes just to get edits.
