Something about having the fact that Jones from Gunnerkrigg Court being as old as the Earth (if not more) as the main trope page's image seems off to me, mainly because it's a spoiler. Is it fine, or would it be preferred to change it to something less spoiler-y? Including where it's more a more common-knowledge reveal like with Gandalf.

Keep current, I'm not familiar with the work so I don't get the spoiler

For context, this is revealed in chapter 40 of what is currently 91. While it's a reveal, I don't think it really changes much — you are already inclined to think something is off about Jones from the minute she appears. Keep Until Better Image Suggested pending another idea.

The current is fine.

Keep current. Finding out Jones is ancient doesn't really spoil something big. like Synchronicity said, it's a reveal but I would not really call it a spoiler.

Keep. Spoiler and reveal get conflated a lot.

I agree about it being more 'reveal' than 'spoiler'.

I'd be willing to consider other suggestions if someone has a concrete one to offer. Otherwise, keep.

Still voting keep, this suggestion is purely because the image of alternate timeline hippy love-advocate Apocalypse from X-Men is too fun to ignore.

That's enough consensus for keeping. Locking up; this one will be going on the "multiple threads" list.
