I can't believe you're still saying this. It is, of course, an example of exactly the kind of specious objections that still had to be addressed and added to the "controversy". A spoiler warning is a statement about content and as such, is exempt from the original research rules, in the same way that it's not original research to declare "this article is subject to BLP" (without a reliable source which says that the article is subject to Wikipiedia's BLP policy) or "this article may contain unverified claims" (without a reliable source which says that the article contains unverified claims). Or to use a recent example, *your own* claim that we should have quality warnings on Wikipedia. http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2008-October/095845.html Pray tell, how is a spoiler warning original research and a quality warning not? _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
