or (I'm hoping) (3) numerous spots on the WB promoting not just that episode but all of Angel
Well, maybe that is too much to ask for.
Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
(Also, that rumour is months old, and the likelihood of that being the title of 5.2 is slim to none.)

We created a short-cut for spoiler font, and it's pretty much the easiest thing in the world to white-font something.
We're not allowed to white font in NAFDA. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but it is against the policy.

I understand why some have an aversion to knowing episode titles, but writers?
Here's a hypothetical: Tim posts in the Angel thread that he's writing episode 7. Do we whitefont (or delete!) his post?
t edited because I can spell. really.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I always like to know the writer line-up. I don't see how this is spoilery, and I think that the argument that you'd know what the episode would be about, or even the tone by the writer, is weak.

Except CwDP. And Hush, in a promo that I remember. Which, therefore, are really the only episode titles we should *ever* be allowed to speak of.
Also, just for reference, OMWF.
And isn't Invisible Girl really called Out of Sight, Out of Mind (or vice-versa on Sight/Mind)?

There's no prohibition against mentioning the writers in the FAQ, only episode titles. It's not a spoiler, and mentioning the writers is not a broadening of current spoiler policy.

Yeah, I don't get the writer being spoilery connection either. Soon the fact that a writer is coming on board or leaving will be spoilery, and what's next...news about Bob the head make-up artist's contract dispute becomes relegated to whitefont?

All is well that ends in pizza.
And isn't Invisible Girl really called Out of Sight, Out of Mind (or vice-versa on Sight/Mind)?
Out of Mind, Out of Sight, yes. Except the WB or FoxTV decided on the more pedantic and spoilery Invisible Girl. The name is restored for the DVD and FX and Syndication.
