a question of spoiler etiquette on social bookmarking sites

[ratcreature]

I try to tag every fanfic I read on del.icio.us so that I can find it again. Now I'm reading some post-DH stuff and naturally my regular tagging (which includes names for all characters in a story for example) as well as the summary blurbs (which I've tried to be better about including in my links), would contain spoilers for DH. I know some people subscribe to del.icio.us feeds or just browse there, and it's not like I can spoiler cut. I'd really like to keep with my bookmarking and tagging routine, but I wonder whether I'm going to get lynched for having tags with spoilery character names. I could make all my post-DH bookmarks private, and unlock them later, but that negates the point of using a social bookmarking site, and I may forget about the unlocking, because I tag a lot of stuff, and even if I have a post-DH tag to find them all again, there's afaik no mass action for making bookmarks not private, so this course of action is somewhat inconvenient. So how should I handle spoilers on a social bookmarking site? What are you doing about your spoilery bookmarks?

I've been tagging all the DH bookmarks I am making with "deathlyhallows" and not really any more detail than that, so that they aren't spoilery for anyone flipping around. I figure that later, I can go in & change them, using the rename tag function. Anyway, you could do something like make a specific tag for a kind of discussion, so later you can change, um, "DHwwgraveyard" to "remus tonks death" or whatever.

The thing is, I tag mostly for fiction, and while I don't read that much HP compared to SGA or even SPN these days (in total since the beginning of July I tagged about a hundred stories I read for example), I tend to forget fiction details if I don't tag right away and would have to revisit every DH story to remind myself, and to use "code tags" seems a lot of effort, and I'm lazy. Also there's spoilery story summaries. For now I'm keeping my DH-related bookmarks, which aren't that many (yet) anyway, private, because to me it seems easier to just change one tickybox than to edit everything for a link.
