I had forgetten about SPAMEL, Dejo. Thanks for bringing it up again.
(With the Maple Leaf recalls, it's better to go canned. :eek
Idea
What if I set up 2 tiddlers for each entry: the first with a non-spoiler write up, and the second (linked at the bottom of the first) with spoilers. Then you only click on the Spoiler tiddler if you want to read it.
This would mean having twice the amount of content, and write-ups for books and events would have to be carefully worded and linked properly.
Can we use Wapitikev's Demonsong article for example: would you consider this entire entry to be a spoiler, because it reveals the entire plot? Would only the first two paragraphs would be allowed in the non-spoiler entry?
Idea
What if we kept spoilers (for one thing) out of unrelated tiddlers (for others). So there would be no information on say, Reborn, except in the actual Reborn entry. Then if I don't want spoilers for Reborn, I don't read that entry, and there won't be Reborn spoilers anywhere else. Would this satisfy your criteria, Dejo? (Honestly, I don't think search paramaters can be so finely tuned. I would like it if they were.)
Ok, those are some ideas to think about for now. I'll think it over, and I know that together we can work out a good solution.
