That seems to be the most practical approach, given the high volume of character tropes that spoil themselves just by being included in the list.
I made a sandbox of a more organized page. It is here.

Moved it to a better spelling: Sandbox.Codex Alera Characters.

I'm changing the entry on Fade/Araris to Araris/Fade- nearly all of the tropes listed apply to his actual persona rather than Fade, and that giant wall of spoilers is really annoying. It'd be a lot easier to write just covering up the parts about him faking brain-damage, and a lot more informative to someone who might actually want to read the series but hasn't yet.

I'm inclined to wonder if the Fade/Araris stuff should be spoilered or not. It's a tough call, in my opinion. On the one hand, the Araris/Fade thing is a significant plot twist. On the other, it's revealed at the end of book one and borders near You Should Know This Already territory from then on.
The page is one big violation of the spoiler policy. We can trim it down to comply, but before we go to that effort, what are opinions on just stripping out all spoilers wholesale and putting a warning at the top of the page?
