That makes sense, although I don't see any way around the spoiler issue...any way we slice it, we ''have'' to alert readers to the fact that there is a spoiler related to [[Michelle Stone]]. Adding related missions, with one having a spoiler tag attached, ''is'' a spoiler in and of itself, just as saying she has a "secret", or just as putting in a line about her being related to [[Karen]]. It seems to me that either we don't include any information about the link between Michelle and Karen (which I now realize is defeating our purpose, as [[User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] mentioned), or we necessarily add some content that contains spoiler information. It seems to me the best option might be one line, in the interest of not making it ''too'' obvious, but also not making it so readers ''can't'' find the info. Having said that, as much as I cringe at the thought, I think the best option is to just do what Gboyers did with the Michelle article, i.e. a simple line stating that Michelle is related to Karen (with the requisite spolier warning). Thoughts?

:I disagree; placing a spoiler "warning" next to a link to a mission does not seem (to me, anyway) obvious that the spoiler is related to Michelle. However, as long as we give the readers the option of learning the spoiler, without forcing them to, it's fine with me. --[[:w:c:gta:User:GuildKnight|GuildKnight]]<sup>[[:w:c:gta:User_talk:GuildKnight|Talk2me]]</sup> 22:41, 20 July 2008 (UTC) | |||
