	****Here's where discussion pages get tricky, then. What is being discussed is, I believe, speculation. On the Help:Style page it mentions theories, fan creations, and spoilers very clearly as speculation. This was why I objected to my post being edited. I have no problem with edits, I just think that there needs to be a more uniform method of posting that, right now, is definitely not being adhered to. I'm not mad or trying to start a fight, just looking for some consistency. Thanks so much for your quick responses!

	*****I'm not thinking your picking a fight. I understand you need help (I did too once when i first came here). But yes, it is speculation. People's ideas are speculation. I'm not so sure if spoilers are speculation, as they are confirming things. So there wouldn't be speculative ideas about thinks people know are going to happen. But I would ask an admin. [[User:Ryangibsonstewart\|RGS]] is a great great help for this kind of stuff. Glad to help (sort of :/) :) --{{User:Catalyst/sig}} 18:46, 17 November 2009 (EST)		*****I'm not thinking your picking a fight. I understand you need help (I did too once when i first came here).

			****** To clarify a bit about spoilers and speculation: All spoilers are considered to be under the umbrella of "speculation". However, not all speculation is a spoiler. For instance, theories are not spoilers, and spoilers are not theories. Spoilers should only be on pages that are in the Spoiler namespace. Speculation and theories can go on any talk page, so long as they don't include spoilers. Hope that helps. I also updated [[Help:Spoilers]] because I couldn't find anything on there that specifically said that spoilers don't belong on the talk pages. If you think something else needs to be added or updated, just drop me a line on my talk page, and I'll see what I can do. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 01:09, 19 November 2009 (EST)
