I am all for short and simple content warnings (something similar to the banners that are used for marking pages for deletion or clean up) for pages with obvious triggering aspects. As a wiki I think we should try to do our best to make things as unproblematic as possible, but sometimes there is little we can do. The wiki is essentially an encyclopedia and picking and choosing what to include would defeat the purpose, so content warnings seem like a good way to go.

As for the Arachnids discussion, my main problem was that there is a whole episode of stills to choose from for the infobox image, and yet the one that was chosen to be the first thing a user sees when visiting the page is the most triggering shot of the lot. My issue was not so much "this triggering picture is included", but more "this picture is included despite there being other options that are not triggering", so my discussion of that topic may not be so relevant to this discussion.

As for whether or not we should have specific pages for slurs and discriminatory language, I'm not touching that one with a ten-foot pole. There are a lot of pages that I personally don't think are needed, but the wiki's current policy is that all nouns can be wikified as long as they have a valid source.
