Talk:Split (Birds of Prey)

This show aired in 2002. There is no need for a spoiler tag.

 * Yes, there is a need. Heck, a show from the 1960s would still need a spoiler tag.. Illyria05 (Talk • Contributions) 14:10, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I believe the policy is that once the show has aired there is no need for a spoiler tag. Otherwise, every wiki article about a television show, movie, book, comic, etc. would have a spoiler tag. I really don't think it is necessary.

 * Yes, it is necessary. Many many people have not seen this show, so this would need a spoiler tag.. Illyria05 (Talk • Contributions) 13:14, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I was asked to come here and give a neutral third party opinion. I'm personally generally against spoiler warnings as I believe them to be just clutter, that people don't even make use of (a placebo to put it candidly). The present page (without a plot) does not need a spoiler warning, in my opinion - it seems more a teaser. WP:SPOILER states "Although Wikipedia strives first to inform and so may include spoilers, not all visitors will recognize this function, so some people will appreciate a spoiler notice" - the warning is a courtesy, not a right. I'd personally like to see spoiler warning usage toned down, but it won't happen :-(. Matthew 16:27, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
 * You're right, Matthew, I'm backing off :P, but the point being, that no matter when the episode aired, spoiler warnings can be added.. I'll remove it in the interest of peace :) .. Thanks everyone :) Illyria05 (Talk • Contributions) 16:58, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, they can. They're best utilized for episodes that have not aired or full plots in my opinion though. The thing that makes them so useless is the fact they're so overused. Matthew 17:10, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Okay, I see.. Thanks for your help :) Illyria05 (Talk • Contributions) 18:50, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
