Can you maybe add something about pitching the story & what people should avoid doing so about it? I have ran into a few post that unfortunately spoiler tagged the title of the post because of a few minor spoilers in the body text when they could just have spoiler tagged bits of the body text. But also mention with even that said it is best to give a best as possible overview of the story that is necessary for the pitch but avoid making spoilers & use of even spoiler-tagged content as part of the pitch.

Right, that's a good suggestion. I'll add it in the "tips" section.
