Violations of the Spoiler Policy

I've removed the spoilery sentence.

I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.

WMG.The Good Place, despite being a WMG page, and therefore a spoiler-off zone, contains numerous spoilers.

---

WMG.The Good Place has since been fixed, and spoilers removed, in accordance with site policy.

Late-Arrival Spoiler has some of its subpages neglect to follow the "all spoilers will be unmarked" label on the main page. LateArrivalSpoiler.Western Animation in particular has most of its examples littered with spoiler tags. Wanted to mention it here in case anyone wants to help get rid of these tags.

Characters.Legend Of The Seeker has a spoiler above the line under the Nicholas folder.

I'd just cut that and the "and".

Fanfic.Spongebob 2019 uses spoiler tags in the description.

I peeked at it, and I feel it would be fine if the line that's spoiler-tagged gets cut.

On Characters.Digimon V Tamer 01 there are several spoilers above the line on some of the character descriptions, and some tropes listed have been concealed.

There were so many spoiler tags on WMG.Blaz Blue that I couldn't get them all by the time edit lock expired.

You can still edit after lock goes, it's just risky.

Yeah, I know. Didn't help that I have a life outside the wiki.

I'll take care of the rest now, unless if someone beat me to it.

Edit: Done at last. I'm definitely going to use a text editor next time. It took three edit locks worth of time!

Should Win-Win Ending be a spoilers off page?

It's an ending trope, so nearly all the entries would need to be marked as spoilers anyway.

EDIT: Page changed, spoiler tags removed.

That makes sense to me.

This entry from WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes.Live Action TV hides a plot point from Chapter 8, but leaves plot points from following stories exposed:

• In The Mandalorian the titular protagonist has robophobia which does make his life difficult as he lives in a universe where droids are literally everywhere and are vital assets. Initially Mando won’t even let droids help fix his ship or take a ride on a Landspeeder driven by a usually harmless Astromech droid. The source of this droid aversion is well justified, as shown in a Flash Back Mando watched his parents and village get butchered by Battle Droids during the Clone Wars as a boy. Mando does seemly get over this fear after IG-11‘s Heroic Sacrifice in the finale of Season 1 although he’s still uneasy around killer droids as seen in Chapter 10 “The Passenger” where the Frog Lady uses the remains of Q9-0 to communicate and startles Mando badly.
  • Fittingly the final antagonists in Season 2 happen to be an army of Dark Troopers, specialised combat droids. One of whom almost kills Mando.
  • A crossover with The Book of Boba Fett has Mando help protect Mos Espa from the Pyke Syndicate and their army of Scorpeneck droids. When one prepares to crush Mando, he hopelessly cowers until his foundling, Grogu, topples the droid.

Would it make more sense to expose the Chapter 8 plot point, or to hide the later ones?

I want to request that Characters.Cooking Companions be made spoilers-off, due to the nature of the game. More of the page is spoilered out than not, including several character folders where every single entry is hidden. Digging around in ATT pointed me to this thread and I couldn't find anything on the Administrivia pages that gave an official place to make such a request, so is there any specific procedure to follow for this?

Not familiar with that game, but it seems to be one of those visual novels that mostly revolves around a big plot twist, which I agree makes it nearly impossible to so much as glance at the character sheet without being bombarded with Self Fulfilling Spoilers. So I would agree with making the page Spoilers Off.

Pretty much, yes. There was also a recent expansion that works as a prequel to put some things and characters into context, and everything about that is spoilered now.

YMMV.My Little Pony Make Your Mark

• One-Scene Wonder: Opaline, the then unnamed villainous alicorn, only appeared for a few seconds in the premier, but became its most talked about part due to the likely ramifications they'd have for the backstory and series going forward and speculation about their identity.
• Tainted by the Preview: Twilight's appearance at the end of the second chapter trailer has received some criticism for looking like her normal self, as opposed to her post-Time Skip Alicorn appearance in the series finale of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.

The latter I'm not sure about spoiling as it was in the trailer so it is not supposed to be a spoiler or so exposed that spoiling it is moot.

The former was a legit spoiler in the series premiere, but was also shown in said trailer. So is that the point we can un-spoil them? If not when (they seem poised to be the Big Bad so it's nigh-impossible to discuss the series without spoiling them)?

The spoiler tags appear to be broken for some reason.

Fixed. Thoughts about the content?

I assume Tainted by the Preview should be unspoiled, that the case? And what of One-Scene Wonder which by now is a Late-Arrival Spoiler?

I'm detecting a bit of Fan Myopia here. Sure, maybe everyone within the fandom jumped on this trailer as soon as it came out. Maybe everyone in the discord servers you hang out in is talking about it. If it's still a spoiler to people outside the fandom discovering the work for the first time, it still gets spoiler tags.

If it gets to the point where keeping one particular spoiler tagged would white out most of the page, then un-tag it and add a warning at the top of the page saying that anything revealed in the trailer will be unmarked.

... nah m8 trailers are promotional material available for free. anything revealed in a trailer is not a spoiler and should not be spoiler tagged.

Spider-Man: No Way Home has an obnoxiously long spoiler warning that makes me want to delete it,unless someone can make it shorter

New theme music also a box

Yeah, that's pretentious.

This page contains unmarked spoilers for Spider-Man Trilogy, The Amazing Spider-Man Series, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe until Spider-Man: Far From Home.

I like that.
