Alien Spidy

 * ... that extraterrestrial spiders have only six legs?
 * Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Barney Berlinger
 * Comment: This is quite obviously an April Fools hook. I can create a regular one if need be, but this came to mind immediately, so I ran with it.

 * Symbol question.svg Date and length OK, hook citation checks out. The hook is fun and I see no objection to using it outside 1 April. A fully-cited and clearly-written, nice article. Just two points: (1) The word "grapple" has a disambig link; IMO it doesn't need a link at all, really. (2) No QPQ yet, though you have had more than 5 successful DYK noms. So if you could please remove the disambig link, and either do a QPQ review or explain why you don't need to, then this nom is good to go. --Storye book (talk) 07:09, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * I should add that the article contains a non-free image, but the rationale and image licence check out OK.--Storye book (talk) 07:46, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Storye book: I've delinked grapple. As for the QPQ, it is Template:Did you know nominations/Barney Berlinger (as has been noted above this entire time ).  S ven M anguard   Wha?  18:54, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Oh, I'm so sorry, don't know how I missed it. Had to giggle about that. Thanks for your patience! And thanks for the delink. All is well.
