We basically had such a rule informally in the past. Before the anime started, the wiki strictly followed the English scans in content. Back then, the wiki was more-or-less a 3-4 people effort and that's why this unwritten rule worked.

Then the anime happened, people started translating random chapters, new people came to the wiki and edited the pages and I gave up.

It should be avoided to add spoilers as long as the chapter hasn't been translated. But I sometimes break the rule myself, when I assume that if I don't add that now, someone else will likely add it later wrong (like my edit to Ryouta Ooshiba's page last week; the cause of death was spelled out in the report, but the cause of death is not so clear in the chapter itself and IS does not translate the report).

I also do not feel like strictly enforcing the rule, because it just means that I'll have to remove whatever was added first and then a few hours/one day later someone else will add it again to the page, probably rephrasing everything again instead of undoing my undo. (Spoiler pics are different, though; I will remove these if they are added to wiki pages.)

So I just trust that people think about it if they have to add these spoilers to the wiki page now or not.

But if the community decides that this rule should be strictly enforced, then so be it; but nobody should later complain about the enforcement of this rule.
