I know we've talked about this before, but I'm not sure what value there is in achiving a spoiler once it has aired. We used to do the same with theories that were disproven or theories that were proven correct, and we quickly disbanded the practice. If the issue is preserving history, I'd much rather make the spoiler page into a redirect. I don't mind keeping episode spoiler pages around so much, though I wouldn't be sad to see them go, too. I'm mostly talking about pages like [[Spoiler:Zach]], [[Spoiler:Mr. Linderman]], and [[Spoiler:Noah's cell (NY)]]. There's just not much use for them.
