in reply to Re^4: black tags
in thread black tags
Just for what's often is less than a line of text or code.
I would agree that "spoiler" tags for a line or two of text or code is reasonably appropriate given context.
While I maintain that "Spoiler" tags should NOT be used to mask didactic content, I have no qualms with their usage to mask a few lines of text or code so long as they're used appropriately in context.
As far as presentation is concerned, protracted or inappropriate use, including the obsfucation of entire <code> blocks or paragraphs (such as this example) are particularly distracting.
I'm really just concerned about their potential for abuse in this fashion. I'm sure all the monks in this thread are well intentioned, but Anonymous Monk often requires the assistance of the Janitors.
Actually, as unsightly as abused spoiler tags are, I had forgotten that Level 6: Friars can ask for consideration having only recently become a Level 5: Monk. Given this realization, I have no objections regarding the creation of spoiler tags.
