Just wait ... Jim'll come back and be all "IN EVERY THREAD FUCKOS. EVEN IF IT'S JUST WORD FROM AUNT ETHEL IN SPRINGFIELD."
"What have you people done to my proposal???"
River: I didn't think you'd come for me. Simon: Well, you're a dummy.

Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Discussion boards, warnerbros.com, fan sites, none of those would count. Interviews would not count, but ad copy, including quotes, would.
Just as quantifiable as "on air promo," and actually doesn't all that radically change the current policy or definition, as far as I can see.

That major casting spoilers (to the main cast only, not recurring or guest), which are being advertised by Fox, the WB or ME in press advertising or their official website, are no longer spoilers
I feel that a straightforward reading of these lines ("advertising" = advertisements; official websites != fansites) leaves little to no room for misunderstanding.
Guys, you don't even agree NOW what "officially published by the network or production company" means. AKA, it is NOT obvious.
If the website is a kosher source for information Lorne's head would NOT have been a spoiler.
Or is it a kosher source for major casting information but not minor casting information? THAT would prove tricky.

Well we have not done anything to it. Because it is Jim's proposal and we can only make suggestions. Writing a proposal under these circumstances is a little like having sex with an audience standing there shouting out helpful suggestions.

You don't know what Aunt Ethel looks like.

Lorne's head on a platter was not a change to the regular cast over the summer, and therefore WOULD have been a spoiler.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

The proposal is only about a) casting changes for b) regulars over c) the summer. (Well, the summer thing is an addition of Cindy's, but the first two are solid.) So because Lorne wasn't a regular at that time, and there was no casting change involved, it would still have been a spoiler.

If she's on top of Angel with Carrot Top, I don't need to.

When I said "on Angel" I meant the show.
Because Aunt Ethel with Carrot Top is much better than a threesome.

Oh sure, tell me that now.
