:May I add my two cents' worth?  As Gboyers mentioned, we are ''not'' Wikipedia.  In fact, this is the very reason I "defected" from Wikipedia in the first place, i.e. the rules are far less draconian, and people are a lot more friendly (and usually not as anal).  But what really got me hooked on GTW is the fact that although we strive for ''encyclopedic'' content, it does ''not'' preclude us to cut-and-dry Wikipedia-style commentary on the games, where all things are aimed at the ''broadest'' audience possible.  We are here for ''gamers'' primarily.  That means our intitiatives should be geared toward assisting gamers in their gaming experiences, and should educate the general public as a ''secondary'' goal.  That having been said, if a major plot development is prominently displayed on a page that someone might inadvertently come across while researching a related part of the story, then it should be taken care of appropriately.  I think ''all'' of us need to step back and realize the issue here: a gamer had a plot development spolied for him/her because of this...therefore, we, as GTW editors, should remedy the situation.
