{{KrytenKoro|Okay.

Personally, I believe that storyline-spoilers should not be added without being marked with [[:Template:Spoiler]] and [[:Template:Spoilerend]] templates, and context of the information should also be properly understood (meaning that translations must be done by credible translators, and that full scenes are studied), so that the the summary is correct, and not just original research based on a snapshot of the game.

TALK -
Okay.

Now, we pretty much all agree that there needs to be some type of spoiler policy specific to BBS.

Now, there is currently discussion as to exactly what that details. As a preemptive measure, I've fully protected for three months Aqua, Terra, Ventus, Master Eraqus, Master Xehanort, Vanitas, Braig, Dilan, Even, Aeleus, Ienzo, Sai, Lea, Xehanort, Mickey, and Lingering Sentiment, though that was, again, purely preemptive, and those locks can be lessened, lengthened, or downgraded.

Personally, I believe that storyline-spoilers should not be added without being marked with Template:Spoiler and Template:Spoilerend templates, and context of the information should also be properly understood (meaning that translations must be done by credible translators, and that full scenes are studied), so that the the summary is correct, and not just original research based on a snapshot of the game. Item and name spoilers, though, I'm completely fine with, just like last time. While talk pages are not subject to the same strict level, it would still be considered trolling to just throw spoilers up there unless it is specifically part of suggestions for improving the page. This is an encyclopedia, not a forum or news site.

From what I understand (please correct me if I am wrong!):

  • DTN and Maggosh believe that story info should not be posted at all until the English release.
  • NV believes that no story info should be posted until the scenes in question are available on youtube.
