@JinxTheFunhouse: I thought the popups were seen only the first time you visit the site, but it seems they are really seen every time you visit a new page, so that's certainly an annoying behavior. Also, it seems they work only in specific pages and not in the entire Wiki. However, I think I can modify the script to fade the page instead of completely hide it, to appear in all pages and to be displayed only once.

Anything we do to the homepage will have very little effect. In any website, the visits from Google represent more than 95% of the total traffic, so few people will see that. We have a big red spoiler warning there and people is still getting spoiled. With this popups we could actually get rid of that banner and the ones placed at the top of each article.

@Sookey5: I know, that's the same thing I explained to that user. Not only this Wiki functions in that way, the entire Wikia network shares the same philosophy. But many people don't know that, so if we can warn them without worsening the user experience, I don't see why we shouldn't do it.
