Continuation of Forum:SH:Game Spoilers and Content Creators
The following Consensus Track thread is for the proposed revision of Wookieepedia:Spoilers; more specifically, how the spoiler policy dictates the treatment of review copies and street-broken copies of media, as well as (official) early access for a game's release.

Proposal One (Content creators)

Proposal one – Add the following sentence to the first paragraph of the Adding new information to articles section:
"Information divulged in content-creator-made reviews may not be added to articles."

Proposal Two (Early access)

Proposal two – Add a unique "Video games" bullet to the list within the same section, between the "Television series" and "Other material" bullet points:
"Information from video games can be added to articles as early as the start of their official early access periods, or upon the day of their standard release otherwise."
Accordingly, the words "video games" in the "Other material" bullet point should be removed and changed to a relevant, alternative media format, such as comics.
