Template talk:April fools

Comments
Wow, I am the first to write to this talk page. I haven't tried using an tag, but thought it would be interesting to have a way to mark a part of an article such that it was only visible on april fools day. Is that what the tag does? I guess not. For that matter, one could have a tag that allowed part of an article to only be visible on a selected day, or range of days. Gah4 (talk) 01:19, 2 August 2016 (UTC)


 * I was actually expecting kind of the opposite behavior, that past April 1st (modulo local timezones...), the associated text would remain, but the tag would only then become visible, as per April Fools' Day public joke tradition.  Otherwise the template seems rather pointless other than to spoil jokes.  As for April Fools' jokes in articles per se, note the policies in Rules for Fools.  --Dan Harkless (talk) 15:25, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
