Image De-Spoilering

I don't know if this is a problem in other galleries or a problem in general but in the MLP gallery, every single scene that is upload gets the spoiler tag even when it's not really a spoiler.

This was my fear when the spoiler tag was being introduced. But, since it was, I'm going to go ahead and move this to Meme Research.

Use this thread to link to images that you don't think should be spoilered, and hopefully a mod will review them.

Please don't embed the images.

Actually, given how the other image report thread is also in Site-Related, I'm just going to move it back to there.

Also it's not necessary to have a mod review them. Users with Scrapbooker powers can also undo spoilers. We don't have official guidelines on spoilers yet, so for now it's up to the userbase to show each other how to use them right.

I was thinking the other day that it could be great if the spoiler tags could be set to expire automatically after some time. Would that be doable?

I forgot about scrapbookers, heh. But yes, RM is correct.

Iamslow: We discussed this, but determined it to be too complicated to implement. So, it's up to the discretion of the uploaders/scrapbookers/mods.

Although it might be complicated to implement, we still did agree that it was a good solution to avoid spoilers that are no longer "spoilers" after a certain time period.

So yeah, just making a small addition to Opspe's post to show we do support that idea.

While not a complete fix for those who'd still like to benefit from the tag, how about a user preference to disable the tag's functionality and automatically show spoiler'd images as if they weren't tagged?

While we're on the topic of spoilers, might as well mark spoilerific content for mod attention (don't know how to mark them myself).

Any image or video in the When They Cry page that shows Hanyuu (purple haired girl with horns) at all or shows a psychotic Shion are all spoilers. The former's mere presence is a major spoiler for multiple reasons and the later spoils one of the earlier novels.

Can you list them here?

Can do.

As the author of the page, I can say with certainty that all the above are spoilers. The "Higurashi Nail Scene" video on the page (page 2) is also a spoiler as it lays the ground work for the scenario for the 2nd novel. On a side note the page needs editor help badly.

Done.

As I can see most of those pictures were uploaded by you. You can add the spoiler tag to your own images by clicking in the edit image button on the top of the page and then clicking in the spoiler box. Hope it helps.

As for the entry, this thread can help you.

A large portion of Smash Bros. images may not need spoiler tags anymore now that the fourth installment has no more new content and there's no word of another one coming out. The images of interest mainly pertain to the playable characters and game features. And then there's the fake leaks.

Here's the search results of the spoilered images. I have scrapbooker powers so I can remove them myself, but other users are welcome to help out.

Please direct reports and issues related to spoiler tags to the Image Cleaning Thread, in addition to the changing of NSFW status/tags and moving galleries. It simply isn't practical to split a nearly 4000 post-long thread into a secondary, unused one just because it seemed like a good idea 3 years ago.

The length of time for which content should be considered a "spoiler" has pretty much been discussed to every possible end thanks to Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, and other weekly-airing shows. If you're not sure, assume 2-4 weeks is as much as a spoiler tags need.

For even lazier types, just assume you're free to clear spoiler tags a month after something is released. For example, all release spoilers for Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild should be gone by April. If you're still unsure, feel free to contact myself or Jacob about your concerns.
