Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Log/2017 April 1

Without a good reason?
In what sense is reverting horseplay that is screwing up good faith AFD submissions so that they wind up not getting recorded here where they belong not a good reason for not restoring the proper state of this page? If there's a consensus somewhere that I missed to interfere with the proper operation of this page for the sake of a gag, please point it out. Largoplazo (talk) 02:48, 1 April 2017 (UTC) OK, that answers that. I'm curious, though, whether the people contributing to the consensus also settled on arrangements for cleaning up the damage afterwards (since what characterizes a good joke is that no harm is done; I wouldn't have said a thing if Twinkle had operated properly and hadn't produced error messages).

 * WP:FOOLS says The AfD log on April 1 is to be split into a section for joke nominations and a section for serious nominations.. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 02:51, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Look at WP:Rules for Fools as it allows joke nominations on April 1. Also look at the deletion logs of April 1 of other years such as WP:Articles for deletion/Log/2016 April 1 which has the same sort of nominations. -KAP03(Talk &bull;&#32;Contributions &bull;&#32;Email) 02:53, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
 * - Nominations like this are always left here (they're just split up in to 2 sections), Don't worry hopefully an admin will come along and delete all of this childish shite. – Davey 2010 Talk 03:05, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
 * In this case, I'd say it was definitely disruptive to mess up the pre-existing formatting of the page. I believe Twinkle relies on the proper formatting (the "Add new entries to the TOP of the following list" comment, specifically) to be there, so fixing that fixed Twinkle. Hopefully we all learn from this; I'm rewording WP:FOOLS to try to remove any misunderstanding. ansh 666 04:37, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
