Didn't they have an April Fool last year, about Encyclopedia Britannica sending in armed guards to take over Wikipedia? (Wouldn't that have been a good idea?)

IMO, the best April Fool they had was 2004, when they remade [[Wikipedia]] as a country page. "The largest city is the capital, En, but recent growth means that most people now live outside of the capital, mostly in the other large cities of De, Ja, and Fr. The population is quite young with typically a leftist political slant."

The best April Fool's joke, was the time when I added some complete nonsense in March, and Ed Poor was like, "I think its an early April Fools joke."

QUOTE(Lir @ Thu 23rd March 2006, 6:14pm)  The best April Fool's joke, was the time when I added some complete nonsense in March, and Ed Poor was like, "I think its an early April Fools joke." Lots of people are adding complete nonsense in March, and in every month.  My 100th post on this forum. I'm the first non-full-time contributor to get there (i.e. excluding the staff, blissyu2 and Golbez). |
