* The existence of the secret projects Brandon announced on March 1, 2022 is not considered a spoiler and may be mentioned freely on appropriate Coppermind pages.
* Any details about the projects are considered pre-release information and should not be mentioned outside of the pages about the books and a few auxiliary pages (e.g., the File page for a secret project's book cover will note as such).
* Secret project book pages will beare created under their actual titles, oncehowever those titlesthere are revealed. We will set upalso [[:Category:Spoiler redirects|spoiler redirects]] of the form "Secret Project <number>" to those pages. andThose willspoiler endeavorredirects toshould usebe those spoiler redirectsused anywhere else we refer to the secret projects are referred to on the Coppermind (e.g., the [[Bibliography]] page) and also function as a last check that you want to proceed before viewing a book's page.
* We cannot control search suggestions or search results for the Coppermind's own internal search. If the title of one of the secret projects starts with "Under" and you type "U" into the search bar, the title may appear as a search suggestion. And if you search for a word that appears somewhere on a secret project's book page, that page (its title and an excerpt of its content from around the matched search) will be included somewhere in the search results.
* Category pages like [[:Category: Books]] and some [[Special:SpecialPages|Special pages]] will include the titles of the books and some minor other details (e.g., if you find a book's entry on [[Special:LongPages|the list of pages by length]], it will also tell you how long, in bytes, the page currently is).
* Secret project book pages will be de-indexed from Google's search results. Google has sometimes been tricky about this in the past; if you notice such a page in Google search results, please let us know and we will do our best to get it fixed quickly.
* A preset has been added to the [[Special:TimeMachine|Time Machine]]'s drop-down menu to set it to before the secret projects were announced. Remember that the Time Machine has some limitations, which are discussed in the section below.
* The pop-up and site notice warnings now contain explicit reminders that pre-release material is allowed in and only in certain areas and we have added an editnotice to remind users of the spoiler policy rules when they are making edits.
* Logged-in users can enable a gadget in the "Recent Changes" section of [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets|the gadgets tab of their preferences]] that will hide edits to the book pages for the secret projects on [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent Changes]] and [[Special:RelatedChanges|Related Changes]].
