If a user has posted a spoiler, ask them for verification, kupo. A dedicated user will do all in their power to verify what info they wanted to input, kupo. If they could not, then act against them, but the articles must still be editable for other users who wish to maintain and keep the article according to the wiki's style, kupo. As a wiki dedicated to the series, kupo, we should always keep up with information, and this isn't possible when we lock it because a vocal group wants to keep themselves unspoiled, kupo. It's also pointless when the discussion page has all the possible spoilers they had wanted to avoid}} | If a user has posted a spoiler, ask them for verification, kupo.

{{Bluer|04:55, January 12, 2010 (UTC)|I have simple reasons, really, kupo. I want people to edit, to contribute as much as they could, kupo. Restrictions only bog down their potential, kupo. If I wanted to filter all the things written here, I might as well lock the entire wiki up, and people who want to contribute can just write me an email and I'll write it down for them, but of course I won't do that,}} | {{Bluer|04:55, January 12, 2010 (UTC)|I have simple reasons, really, kupo.

{{KrytenKoro|You seem to be acting like I want to keep people out, but I too want people to edit. But I also want to respect the wishes of the community, which is why I immediately asked for comment when said group asked me to protect the pages. While the clear consensus is to just use the spoiler policy we already had in place for ''Days'', the only discussion on the protection has been one "support", and one "against". As soon as there is actual discussion on it that shows it is the consensus, I will eagerly support unlocking the articles - I myself am a spoiler hound. | |||
As for asking users for verification, I have been. See [[Talk:Aqua's Keyblade]]. Specifically because we had gotten two different names, since people were confusing her default Keyblade with the final Keyblade (i.e., direct confirmation that the claimed name was unreliable). No verification was provided, and instead, the article was again moved to the unconfirmed name. (I will note that by now, I have searched youtube and found the correct name myself.) | |||
Furthermore, no one seems to be following or respecting the spoiler policy we already had in place, or even the temporary sitenotice that DTN asked me to post. (Example given below). In this case, the information was a mess (as predicted by the editors who asked me to lock the page), the information clearly shows no understanding of the script itself (as I predicted), and no spoiler template was posted. Furthermore, the information was added back after it had been reverted by another editor (which is within rights, as reversion policy supports removing badly written sections). As the edit had already been reverted, I'm not going to give the editor a warning, but I've not seen other editors giving warnings even in still present cases.}} | |||
