Survivor Wiki:Spoiler Policy

Survivor Wiki's Spoiler Policy states that leaking information about a current or future season will result in a wiki ban for at least the duration of the season.

What is a spoiler?
A spoiler is anything regarding a current or future season that has not yet been revealed by CBS, televised, seen in a promo, or seen in a deleted scene on CBS's website.

The following pieces of information were spoilers prior to the episodes airing or promos revealing the information in question:
 * "I heard that has a Final Two." (if posted before the promo for the finale revealed the Final Two)
 * "Colton is evacuated in episode 6 of ."
 * "Malcolm wins immunity next episode."
 * "Sucks says that Season 29 uses the Blood vs. Water twist."
 * "I heard that Cochran is returning for.

The following pieces of information are not spoilers:
 * "All three remaining Brains are switched to the same tribe, I saw it in the promo."
 * "The next immunity challenge is Battle Dig, CBS revealed it today."
 * "Episode 2 airs on September 27."

Tribe switches
A Tribe Switch (or any similar twist) ceases to be a spoiler once the twist has been revealed in a promo. In addition, if the promo shows the new tribes, that information ceases to be a spoiler as well.

Challenge/Tribal Council results
The results of challenges (including duels) and Tribal Councils are spoilers until the episode has aired regardless of whether CBS has revealed the results beforehand. So if a promo says that Aras loses the next duel and joins the jury, that information is a spoiler until it has actually aired.

Tribal Council results cannot be posted in the main namespace until the episode has finished airing on the East Coast. Under normal circumstances, this is at roughly 9:00 PM (Eastern Time) on Wednesday. The exception to this rule is if a Double Episode or Season Finale includes multiple Tribal Councils, in which case results can be posted as soon as they air.

If a contestant quits or is evacuated, the results can be posted as soon as it airs.

Spinoff wikis
All spoiler policies apply on Survivor Fanon Wiki, Survivor Answers Wiki, and Survivor ORG Wiki.
 * On Fanon Wiki, the policy also applies to events in fanon seasons that have not yet occurred or been revealed by the fanon author(s).
 * On ORG Wiki, the policy also applies to events in ongoing or future Survivor: Wikia seasons that have not yet occurred or been revealed by the hosts.

Survivor Wiki Facebook group
The Survivor Wiki Facebook group (as well as the groups for spinoff wikis, but not the groups for individual Survivor: Wikia seasons) falls under the jurisdiction of the wiki, and the Spoiler Policy applies there as well. On the Facebook group, information about the currently airing episode can be posted as soon as the event in question airs.

Survivor Polls and Survivor Simulations
The Survivor Polls and Survivor Simulations Facebook groups are spinoffs of the Survivor Wiki Facebook group, but are unaffiliated with the wiki itself. Therefore, no wiki bans will be assessed for posting spoilers on Polls or Simulations.
