Wikipedia bears a superficial resemblance to some print
encyclopaedias. Any stronger statement is likely inaccurate. Do
encyclopaedias have list of pokemons? Do they have warnings that
material is not neutral? Do they change from day to day? Do they
contain phrases like "JOHN IS GAY HAHAHA"?
So, a belief that print encyclopaedia articles contain spoiler
warnings may be ill-founded. A belief that Wikipedia articles contain
spoiler warnings is more reasonable. Especially since it's true.
