Battlestar Wiki:Spoiler Policy

From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide

This page highlights the official spoiler policy of the Battlestar Wiki.

Overview

Quite simply, no special warnings will be provided for spoiler information.

The only warning is on our Main Page. Everything else is considered fair game.

Reasoning

The issue with giving spoiler warnings can be summed up into the following numbered list:

  1. Different people have watched different episodes: thus one man's spoiler is another man's already known information.
  2. The purpose of this wiki is to provide objective and insightful information regarding the series and related information.
  3. Spoiler-warnings require that information be split up into sections. For instance, anything dealing with Sharon Valerii would have to be segmented based on episodes, thus damaging the flow of the article text.

This site is an information resource. It is meant to be used to research ideas, events, people and places after watching an episode. Therefore, we believe that people are responsible enough to police themselves.
