Forum:Infinite dragonflight leader

Forums: Village pump → Warcraft lore → Infinite dragonflight leader

Yeah, so the new book reveals the true leader if the Infinite Dragonflight. I would like to be reminded what are the rules on spoilers from new lore material? Ya' know, before I spoil it for everybody. --AhotahThunderhorn (talk) 03:44, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Someone correct me if im wrong but there was never a set-in-stone policy. I belive we do a two week period but let one of the admins confirm that. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Warthok (talk · contr).

Multiple exemples (like Bolvar's end, Stormrage book, even Anduin Lother) and a rejected policy have settled the followings:

Wowpedia is a spoiler zone, when someone comes here he knows what is going to happen

As a consequence of the previous, there shall not be any spoiler warning (template) in any article

A 2 week discretion is observed, giving time to read the books (or wait for it because I am a goddam european!)

I will try to write it properly (eventually)

Brashly you have attacked my policies, A'noob! But seriously, why was the older policy removed (not by A'noob) after Forum:Stormrage and spoilers... and then replaced just now?--SWM24 48 16:30, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

I'm assuming, based on the date, that it was removed due to the recall vote rejecting the same spoiler policy that A'noob just put back into place. StarNeptune (talk) 19:01, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Wait... yeah. The removal of it. That is what I meant. If I had taken the time to read what I linked properly, I would have realized that what I linked was not the discussion about not having a spoiler policy. Quite the opposite really. Yeah. Why put it back?--SWM24 48 19:09, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

As one of the people who voted to recall the policy, no spoilers should be added before the book is released - which it has been like now since the vote. This is why I deleted the information about the characters from the novel page. A'noob, if you want to put the policy back in, then put a vote for it. We already recalled it once, so it's only fair that you put up a vote to bring it back. --g0urra[T҂C] 19:15, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

So what does all this policy discussion ultimately come to? Is it okay for me to reveal the leader on not?AhotahThunderhorn (talk) 01:43, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

It is, as long as you provide the source in the book. --g0urra[T҂C] 01:45, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Similarly, someone should also restore Chromatus. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 07:07, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

I guess I missed the moment when the "2 week delay" was removed by vote, and thus added it thinking that we were lazy enough to forget its formulation into Policy articles.

I'll do a vote just to check
