1. With the release of Iron Man 3 imminent, I was hoping someone would construct and highlight a message for editors similar to what was done for Amazing Spider-Man #700 back in November/December about spoilers. The film's been out in New Zealand for almost a week, will release in a number of European countries tomorrow, and throughout the rest of the world over the next few days. I think we can all agree it would be a terrible thing for the film to be spoiled for those who live in one of the countries it releases later (namely the United States), and for those who maybe don't see the film the moment it's released.

2. I've also noticed a trend of pages being created for movie characters well before they make their debut. This primarily comes from User:DaddlerTheDalek, although this has happened a lot in the past with other users. While I don't want to see the user reprimanded in any way, it does not help the wiki to have several pages more or less blank for over a year until the film releases, and the wiki does not need this extra clean-up. If it were up to me, none of these characters would get a page until they make their debut in any officially released material (barring advertisements), but I would like to see some sort of policy about this put in place and highlighted.
