=Wikipedia:April Fools/April Fools' Day 1947=

Wikipedia finally resumes its slight buffoonery after recovering from a severe budget cut and the rationing of paper for the war effort. The last time we act like hooligans was in 1929. Jokes sympathetic to fascism and communism are banned from publication.

Articles for deletion

 * Communism and Socialism were nominated for deletion per WP:AUTOCRACY and un-American.
 * The Soviet Union was later nominated for deletion for similar reasons.
 * Interestingly, Capitalism was nominated for deletion on the Soviet Wikipedia per WP:GREED and WP:DEMOCRACY.
 * Due to the restricted nature of the Soviet Wikipedia, joke nominations that are critical of communism and Stalinism were not only removed, but the nominators were allegedly sent to the gulag.
 * The result was cold.
 * Earth was nominated for deletion again...
