If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
As a part of our continuing efforts to make sure people aren't spoiled about upcoming stories, we've put in place a "spoiler screen" that will appear on pages that are tagged {{spoiler}}, as well as all threads in the Howling.
This screen obscures the page until the user decides to proceed to the page. After this point, your browser will remember your choice until and unless you clear your cookies. When that happens, or when you switch browsers or computers, you'll again be challenged to proceed through to the spoilers.
This feature can most readily be seen on Series 7 (Doctor Who) or any of the non-administrative threads at the Howling.

Attempts to circumvent this feature will, of course, be frowned upon. Please don't remove {{spoiler}} from pages where it is legitimately applied. Please don't apply {{spoiler}} where it doesn't belong, either. Please read and understand how we define spoiler and why we think it's important to wait until a story is officially released before starting a page for it.
