Spoilers in a 2E world

Given that the results of most APs are spoiled in the 2E Core Rulebook, the current lodestone of the entire system, what's the plan for dealing with that? Future books haven't helped this any. For example, if I want to make a page on the Stasian Technology, introduced in Guns & Gears, I'm kind of SOL unless I just want to flag the entire page as spoilers forever, regardless of how widespread that technology becomes.

Multiverse theory isn't apperied for that?--Laclale (talk) 06:13, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

At this point, I'm seeing some merit in trying something based on {{Collapsible}} or Extension:Spoilers—a way to mark specific passages as spoilers for specific adventures while leaving the rest of the article safe to read for people who intend to play the adventures in question. With the current system, a single word is sufficient for a whole article to be flagged as spoilers, with no way to distinguish what is spoilers and what is not (and as I've noticed, when a spoiler badge is added, it is there to remain forever), and as more and more adventures get released and subsequently canonised, it's only a matter of time until the only articles that new players can safely read are low-traffic and (relatively) unimportant ones (while the big ones are marked as spoilers for several APs at once). - HTD (talk) 11:12, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
