      Should I index resource submission forms, thank you, event pages, etc.? Doesn't Google consider this content too thin?

        You can no-index these pages usually, I wouldn't say that Google considers them thin content pages though as they can be found on any website on the web and they can probably guess that the page isn't relevant for the user anyway. Some pages like thank-you can be no-indexed but in the end, Google shouldn't even be able to visit them as they require you to fill in a form. Overall I would mostly look at the priority of this task, in the end, there is likely a 100+ other things that I would do first in my strategy over no-indexing pages that have low relevance.
