Forum:Should spoilers be on the top of the front page?

I'd like to foster a discussion about the pros and cons of having spoilers on the front page. If there is a more appropriate place than the forums for discussion of this topic, I'm open to suggestions. (There was a discussion on the front page's "talk" page, but an Admin removed it...)

An image of the corpse of a certain deceased character was added to the top of the front page recently. This spoiler is/was: ​Many pages within this wiki are useful to people who are not caught up with the series. For instance, with a little care, one can read an episode page without spoiling anything that comes later. But having spoilers of this type on the top of the front page precludes this utility for the most part. If a news outlet did something like this, the public would eviscerate them.
 * ​fresh​ -- it was posted within minutes of the episode ending, as far as I know.
 * ​major​ -- it was a major character that died.
 * blatant​ -- it's a large image; you can't so much as glance at the front page without seeing it.

​Now, many, many pages wi ​thin this wiki simply must​ contain spoilers. But I'm not sure this applies to the front page. And honestly, I don't think it would be any great loss if we didn't have fresh, major, blatant spoilers in image form on the top of the front page. If you were to eliminate the one image in question, I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a single significant spoiler on the front page, and certainly not a blatant one.
