    And also mention what it spoils, not simply tag it as a spoiler. If I hadn’t come to the comments first, I would have assumed, based on the thumbnail, that it is a Voyager spoiler

      You would have assumed that it was a spoiler for a show that originally aired over two decades ago?

            I don’t think spoiler tags are required here. But if you decide to tag it anyways, I think you should mention what is being spoiled along with the tag.

            While I do think spoiler tags for anything in an episode less than a week old is probably just good manners, I have no intention of putting in place any sort of official policy requiring them. Rules are for Cardassians, and here on Risa we have little pictograms on our foreheads, not spoons.

            In my opinion, anyone seeing a spoiler tag should assume it’s for something recent. Nobody is going to use the tag for a 23 year old episode of VOY.
