[edit] First header

Hi, anyone I'm new here, so I won't make any changes, (and my english s***) just make a remark: maybe the page can be marked with the "Spoiler" warning, I just read some things, which I didn't want to; and I don't know which is right, Sykes or Syke, but it's wrong the way it is Zaibolint 16:24, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

I am not sure about the spellings; I have not gotten that far into the series. He has a point though, and ironically it is about the Sykes thing. There is too much info there, namely about the stolen guitar, and the kidnapping. These things may or may not be needed for a proper character intro, but if they are there, then a spoiler warning of some sort will be needed. Emry 06:57, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spoilers

How do we want to handle spoilers?

I suggest we trim it up (aka take out the spoilers that are not an absolute must), and then move any spoilers that have to be there towards the bottom of the page and mark them as spoilers. For instance, in the description of Ryuusuke, the entire last sentence is unneeded. There is no requirement to tell people that he stole the guitar. It is not integral to the readers understanding of the character. It is however a plot element that some people would consider fairly major later in the series. The line “Getting all the big breaks, Belle Ame seemed destined for greatness, until BECK destroyed their ride to fame, at the cost of being blacklisted in the music industry.” is not needed either. In fact, this is the worst spoiler possible. It would be just fine on a page devoted to an eppisode guide or a synopsis of the serries, but it is not good for a character list.

The information on Sykes and John Lee Davis should be cleaned up a bit, but I think that the spoiler template should be added to the sections holding those two and the animals. The two guys are far enough into the serries that there is no way to include them without spoilers, but we need to play damage control there. As for the animals, because of the role they play, they need to be included but again are spoiler magnets. Emry 07:19, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
