For parts of the wiki where a vast majority of readers visit, the best course of action is to avoid writing or referring to spoiler-heavy material entirely, unless necessary, of course. A good example would be to avoid any final boss-related content on the front page's [[Template:Did you know|did you know]] section. | For parts of the wiki where a vast majority of readers visit, the best course of action is to avoid writing or referring to spoiler-heavy material entirely, unless necessary, of course.

Another point in which it would be ideal to decrease spoilers is when a certain game's page refers to spoilers in a different game. For instance, on the page for ''Pikmin 3'''s final boss, the [[Plasm Wraith]], there's not much point in avoiding spoilers, seeing that if the reader is reading this, they know they will receive all sorts of ''Pikmin 3'' spoilers. But the reader may not be willing to have their ''Pikmin'' or ''Pikmin 2'' experience spoiled, so information about major spoilers in those games should be minimized. | |||
