Now, it is one thing for buffyfans and trekies to protect their secrets.
There's a weak case for books just published and episodes yet unscreened
in some parts of the world. After all perhaps someone searching us here
has just come from some fandom site where spoiler warnings are expected.
However, when this crap juvenile starts getting into our mainstream arts
coverage - and particularly historical works - we just look bloody
ridiculous.
Sounds like time for a removal of stupid spoiler tags. Could all
reading this please go to the above URL and get hacking?
I can't find anything in the Manual of Style about them. Is there
something lurking there?
