Or, alternately, just make the text the same as the spoiler definition in the FAQ:
[A spoiler is] Anything that hasn't been broadcast. So anything from the show and the preview trailers is okay, anything from TV Guide or anywhere else is a spoiler, including casting news, episode titles and plot twists. No white fonting.
Huh.
So, we have written down episode titles as spoilers, but we've, in practice, used them.
Yargh.
Brain blew up.
In practice, ep titles are considered spoilery unless Tim mentions them first. I think we've been consistent about that, at least.

Hmm. I don't think so, but I'd have to check and see in the archives.
Again: head hurty. I don't actually care much one way or the other, though.
Though I do have a random notion that perhaps we should have Angel Spoilers change to TV Spoilers when the show ends, just because of my sudden fear of having NOWHERE to discuss these things.

I was just going to say this. In practice, Tim, Joss et al have a pass on Spoilers--and let's face it, their never gonna give away the good stuff, anyway.

Gah. I am so embarrassed. Normally when I repost things Tim has said to my LiveJournal, I don't link back here. Just, you know, to be polite, because from lurking the right-hand threads I kinda got the impression that linking to the site was frowned upon (and someone correct me if I'm wrong).
OTOH, I am kinda pleased that 22 people came here from my LJ, 'cause only three people on my friends list had expressed interest in Wonderfalls. Plus, more readers for me!

Gah...like, all TV? Would we whitefont? Would there be rules to accomodate freakish people like me who want to be spoiled rotten for narrative television, but avoid reality spoilers like the plague?
In any case, I'd rather archive Angel Spoilers and start a new thread, for ease in archive searching.

Yeah, the rules will always be the kicker on that one.

People are concerned about linking to the site for various reasons from privacy to starfuckers, but mostly too much traffic. Linking 20 people from your LJ is not the type of thing people frown upon.
Yeah, not to worry xnera. People all over lj were linking to us this week.
