Removing plot
Hi

Please do not remove "spoliers" from plots. The plot section is a complete record of the plot, or it is a partial plot in need of expansion - if the plot already contains "spoilers" the only reason for thier removal would be if they were fantasy and not in the film. Incorrect spoilers should be corrected, not removed. Please read this: Spoiler

You should not remove them just because you feel they shouldn't be in there. Chaosdruid (talk) 17:13, 11 April 2012 (UTC)


 * PS - If you are wondering why I am writing this, it is because you appear tohave done this on more than one article:, ,.


 * Hi, thank you for your interest in helping editors. Each of the edits mentioned follows this guideline: "Wikipedia should contain potentially 'spoiling' detail where it substantially enhances the reader's understanding of the work and its impact but be omitted when it merely ruins the experience of the work of fiction for our readers." (Italics mine) How_to_write_a_plot_summary


 * Please consider the context in which these edits were made. In the case of Leverage, the info removed was a plot point that did not need to be in the article introduction; moreover, a reader merely interested in a general description of the show would have the first season climax ruined by this unnecessary info. I edited the Lucy Griffiths page for the same reason. The Forces spéciales edit should simply have been summarized as "simplified plot".


 * Again, thanks for your help. ~ BlueJaeger (talk) 18:11, 11 April 2012 (UTC)


 * I do hope that you understand I am not intending to in any way condemn you - after all the Leverage edit was in 2009 and the Griffith edit 2 years ago. I was just making sure that it wasn't habit forming, which I am sure it was not, and to perhaps remind you of them and consider if there was any need for them to still be excluded - in other words were they only really spoilers because they were "current" at the time you removed them and having them in there now would not really be spoiling (as most fans and casual viewers will have seen them).
 * The Forces Speciale I saw as a little different, as the edits did seem to indeed be removing more than just spoilers.


 * Plot summaries are indeed a difficult balance, but remember that the recommended word count is far greater than what was there before you shortened it, and it was that which triggered my interest in the reduction. The link you sent is to an essay, rather than a guideline, and so is not something that can be said to be supported by consensus. The MoS guideline says that the plot summary length for a feature film "should be between 400 and 700 words" Manual of Style/Film.


 * Anyway, you have assured me that you are indeed keeping balance in mind and it was nice to communicate with you. Chaosdruid (talk) 05:08, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
