Is reverting them good policy? What if the material added to the Orcent page wasn't character info but a listing of bars where the conversations could be found? My intuition is that the latter is more spoilery and less desirable, but it isn't really story related info. How much patron-only info can we allow to be implicitly allowable from any given explicit disclosure? You can answer this by asking yourself what part would be verifiable by someone who wasn't a patron. That the bar crawl exists is known from the announcement, but little else can be derived from it. The only argument in favor of the removal of the Dari and Uyae hareming would be that not making a blanket ban against all patron-only info on pages puts far more potential work on admins and editors in terms of figuring out which info falls under the exceptions and which does not. Rules that maximize reasonability are great in principle, but ones requiring enough interpretation that they increase the amount of work the admins and major editors have to do might be more trouble then they are worth. I suppose if anyone feels we've reached that point, they're welcome to speak up.
