User:SOTO/Forum Archive/The Panopticon/@comment-44988386-20200803134317/@comment-6032121-20200803221703 I think it would go against the spirit of T:SPOIL to allow spoilers in any old Panopticon thread. However, so long as the title itself doesn't mention any spoilerific info, it might be feasible to borrow a page from the Discuss playbook and introduce the option to create "spoiler threads" in the Panopticon with spoilers right in the title.

Let's say, for example, that we're in 2013 some time before The Name of the Doctor airs, and someone encountered the spoiler of the War Doctor's existence. Within the system I'm imagining, that someone could, weeks before the War Doctor's actual non-spoilered debut, have created a Panopticon thread called something like ""(SPOILERS) Necessary updates based on information from the end of Series 7""

on which to already put together a working model of an updated Template:Doctors, to compile a list of Time War-related pages which would need editing, etc. Hence allowing thorough coverage of the War Doctor practically overnight as soon as Day of the Doctor aired.
