:::Great! The only question is how to handle pictures, i.e. if it is a good idea to put the images in each article, which means that most articles with pictures could act as spoilers. In this case it would be useful to put a general spoiler warning on the [[Main Page]]. Another alternative might be to put all images the user uncovers through gameplay (mainly mouse pictures) on one page and before each link to this page, we put a spoiler warning. The other (non-spoiler) images could of course be integrated in the related articles.

::::I'm up for the all-purpose spoiler warning on the Main Page, since the "mouseum" idea probably wouldn't work for people who only want to see the mice they've caught. How about a link on the silhouetted image pages, leading to the images of their revealed versions? ''"Spoiler: Go [here] to unveil this mouse."'', for example. Still, I'm definitely in favor of the Main Page warning. Leaving all of the articles with silhouettes doesn't sound very Wiki-like.

Hi all, I just noticed that uploads have been disabled on this wiki, which is a pity since it would be a great opportunity to show a picture of all the mice, traps, cheeses etc. on the respective page. Does anybody know more? --Mulleflupp 14:50, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey, I believe Joel has administrative powers over the Wiki.
He's off on tour at the moment, but I'll try and contact him to amend this.
All we'll need to do is address the viewers that they could potentially stumble upon spoilers because I know some players prefer to unlock the mice images through their hard work.

I'm up for the all-purpose spoiler warning on the Main Page, since the "mouseum" idea probably wouldn't work for people who only want to see the mice they've caught. How about a link on the silhouetted image pages, leading to the images of their revealed versions? "Spoiler: Go [here] to unveil this mouse.", for example. Still, I'm definitely in favor of the Main Page warning. Leaving all of the articles with silhouettes doesn't sound very Wiki-like.
