== Capitalization ==
This may be too nit-picky but I'm pretty sure that the spoiler warning should be capitalized to say:
<div align="center">"Spoiler Warning: This article may contain major plot/ending details."</div>
{{spoilers}}
If it's supposed to be lowercase, so be it. However, there shouldn't be a period at the end if that is the case. Personally, it looks better with the capitalization in place.

Why does the word template in the final paragraph link to wikipedia? - unsigned comment from Luke2511 (talkcontribs)

It's apparently a hangover from when that Wikipedia article actually existed. I think it's due time for an update :D — THE TROM — 23:06, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

SOS (Save Our Spoiler-warnings!)

Someone has deleted all the spoiler warnings from articles containing major plot details! Are they trying to phase out the warnings altogether? If you want to join my Save Our Spoiler-warnings campaign, you can sign your name on my user page. Taromon777 10:33, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

Spoiler warnings are suppose to go to the main area of the spoiler, not the Characters.--ForceFire 10:37, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
But even the movie articles have had their spoiler warnings removed! Taromon777 11:35, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

Overlap

Bad news, the template is overlapping infoboxes. Example: BW005. Any way to fix this? Digifiend (talk) 14:37, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

What browser and screen resolution are you using (it should only occur in Chrome and on a lower resolution)? --SnorlaxMonster 14:43, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
Chrome, 1024x768. Unfortunately, it's the largest resolution my monitor can display. EP040_(unaired) is badly affected by this bug as well, looks like it affects more than just Spoiler Warnings. Digifiend (talk) 02:13, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
Could also be your screen resolution. Both pages look fine to me. Frozen Fennec 02:24, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
It's got to do with the weird way Chrome handles center alignment. Most browsers put it in the middle of the things on either side of it (so if there is an infobox, most browsers take that into account), but Chrome just puts it straight in the middle of the page. There really isn't that much we can do about the spoilers template, but I have fixed the EP040 (unreleased) issue (I'm a Chrome user too BTW, and EP040 (unaired) was really bad).

Capitalization

This may be too nit-picky but I'm pretty sure that the spoiler warning should be capitalized to say:


"Spoiler Warning: This article may contain major plot/ending details."


201
Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.
201


If it's supposed to be lowercase, so be it. However, there shouldn't be a period at the end if that is the case. Personally, it looks better with the capitalization in place. C.Wallace (Talk|Contribs) 15:19, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
