At the time of writing, spoilers are inaccessible to keyboard-only users. This issue was reported on Meta Stack Exchange in October 2017. Solutions have also been suggested, including one that relies on more appropriate HTML elements than the blockquote element.
Using the current spoiler implemen...
Several SE sites, including Science Fiction & Fantasy SE, support the tag >! for spoilers. This markup hides the text following the spoiler tag unless the user hovers the mouse pointer over the spoiler area. Unfortunately, if you browse websites by keyboard (e.g. due to mobility impairment), the ...
Feel free to edit out the spoiler tags in my answer @Tsundoku. I put them in (and am leaving them there for now) because @DLosc's question had one, and I didn't want the answer to reveal what the question took some effort to conceal.
As I pointed out in October 2017, Spoilers are inaccessible to keyboard-only users. That question has two answers suggesting more accessible alternatives, including one that relies on native HTML elements (detail and summary) that fit the task much better than the blockquote element.
Since the ac...
I'm reading this older book called Poetic Meter and Poetic Form by Paul Fussell. In a chapter called "Metrical Variations", a part of a poem is cited as an example of overly regular metre. The poem is called "America for Me" (written by Henry Van Dyke) and these are the quoted lines:

data.stackexchange.com/scifi/query/1725311/… is a SEDE query for HNQ to which I gave an answer. column abh tells if my answer was before the question went HNQ. change the SEDE parameter networkuser to your network user ID to find with your answers instead of mine. I'm showing this on Sci Fi because I only have one of these on Lit.
I am looking for a children's mystery novel set in South Africa, of which I remember several details. I should say up front that the novel I am looking for is not Phyllis Whitney's "Secret of the Tiger's Eye", despite some similarities.
I remember the following details. (It is possible that I'v...
"title and tags in AmE" - hmm, @Mithical, source for that? Tags yes, because we need to choose one style or another for a unique tag name, but I thought titles are like body text, OP's choice?
I don't remember anyone trying to change my titles to AmE before, but if they did, I'd be rolling back in a hurry ;-)
@verbose I've removed the spoiler tag from the question; feel free to do the same to your answer. (It's not that much of a spoiler anyway, compared to some other things from the same book!)
@Randal'Thor I spent a non-negligible amount of time trying to decide whether to use "fishing rod" (as I would write it) or "fishing-rod" (as Dickens wrote it) in the title of my recent question.
Try reading Shakespeare's history plays in the order in which they were probably written: Henry VI, Part 2; Henry VI, Part 3; Henry VI, Part 1; Richard III; Richard II; King John; Henry IV, Part 1; Henry IV, Part 2; Henry V.
Most people find those plays confusing enough when read in the order of the historical events ... I remember reading the Henriads with a bookmark on the genealogical trees at the book of some editions, to avoid confusion.
In the car I was lonely and scared. I let out a couple of dry sobs. On
either side of the freeway, the lights of new industrial parks were flicking
on. I wound the window down and punched the radio button. Cat Empire:
‘Nights Like These’. Once I had overheard a spiteful girl dismiss that band
