Absolutely. I've been looking through articles
using spoiler warning
template, and a stupidly high number of them have the template directly
below a section heading with the title "plot details" or the like. Using the
spoiler template is in these cases, *completely unnecessary* even if the
premise of warning people is valid in other situations.
Unfortunately I don't have time to seek out all such cases and immediately
fix them,
Find "what links here" from Template:Spoiler, open all articles
beginning with a letter and clear that letter out. Or ten or twenty.
Shouldn't take too long.
but I would suggest these more than any other uses of
the spoiler
template (or arguments about not using it ever) should be tackled
immediately. All that's necessary is to ensure the section heading gets the
message across as to what is contained within the section, something that
should already be the case. The spoiler warning is completely and utterly
redundant where used below such a section heading.
