How could the spoiler in the article ruin buffy's finale if I was 
notified of it?

Just saying.  I'll be refraining from doing a lot of book and movie 
articles with this change that I might have been willing to touch 
beforehand.

But I know that "Jeff Raymond likes tags" isn't any more of a reason 
than "Phil Sandifer dislikes tags," and I'm mighty disenfranchised by 
the wholesale removal of them at this point anyway, so...
