To remove spoilers from a description, especially a movie or TV summary, that might otherwise give away the ending or a plot twist to the unsuspecting reader. Can either be done by omitting spoiler content entirely, or by masking it on a web page in a way that the user has to click through or highlight text to read it.
You should spoilerize that movie review better, so people don't find out he was dead all along.

Internet slang: A unknown fact within a series (generally of a future event) that ruins the tension and mystery for newer fans.
What constitutes a spoiler is often debatable but a good rule for determining one is the "3 of 6 rule". The "six" are Who, What, Where, When, Why, and How. If a comment has atleast three of these six then it can generally be called a spoiler.
One of the only exceptions to the "3 of 6 rule" is "X dies" or "X is dead" as this is still considered a spoiler because the When or How is generally considered irrelevent when it comes to deaths.
"Vader, Luke" >This statement is WHO+WHO and thus doesnt convey a spoiler as no information is being revieled.
"Vader is Luke's Father" >This is WHO+WHO+WHAT, and thus fits the "3 of 6 rule" and is a spoiler.
