And returning to the original issue under discussion, taking [[Ncuti Gatwa]] as an example case: if you've found yourself at that URL, the conspicuous non-existence of the page is rather less effective than the archetypical "Move along, nothing to see here," and the bit about his name being the top search here for months is indicative of the sad truth that we can't control the whole world; I myself have been spoiled for all sorts of things by seeing Google search suggestions, and I think eventually you just have to bow to reality, chuck a "Spoilers!" banner up top, and create the damn page.

:A: This is obviously unworkable. There are far too many pages for what you're proposing to be feasible. | |||
:B: DWM ''in particular'' isn't relevant, the question is whether DWM has the same level of status as a BBC press release. Saying that important DWM news will get picked up by mainstream press doesn't move the needle, because mainstream press coverage isn't the standard we're discussing here.
