Main page DYK
I hope this is suitable? Durova Charge! 17:48, 28 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I've never been involved at DYK, but I'm sure others will tweak it if needed. Can you link to DYK somewhere?  Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 17:49, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

I have a couple ideas for DYKs (new articles):


 * Genetically-modified glow-in-the-dark animals
 * Regrettably, my article on Glo-cats is in its most nascent phases
 * Glowing pigs have also been developed
 * The apparation of the Virgin Mary on a piece of toast
 * This was a massively covered news event in 2004
 * This topic might be a bit too offensive, but I would love do an article about it

 * Hmmmmmm.... this indigestible, sprawling article is actually very good starting material. I would love to do a fork of this article and give it a more humorous title, such as Apparition of deities in foodstuffs :-) --The Fat Man Who Never Came Back (talk) 21:04, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

2009 April Fool's Day FA

 * < Copied from User talk:SandyGeorgia, to save for next year>

This article is awesome! Nishkid64 (Make articles, not wikidrama) 19:07, 24 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Nonsense, someone needs to get Vampire pumpkins and watermelons onto the main page... – iride  scent  19:09, 24 June 2008 (UTC)


 * (ec) So get on it now, and get it FAd in advance :-) I can assure you I won't have the energy next year to do what we did this year, and you'll have to deal with The Fat Man, who has his eye on that maggot cheese article. Next year, we should put out the April Fools' Dispatch early, and encourage multiple FA submissions so we have multiple choices to present to Raul.  (Iridescent, are you trying to put Moni out of work in the Edit summary dep't?) Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 19:12, 24 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm just pleased to have an edit summary that isn't "Re: your comments on Huggle" or "Re: Your comments on Keeper's talk page" for once... – iride  scent  19:20, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Anyone up for getting April Fool's Day featured? giggy (O) 23:25, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
 * This is my idea for April Fool's Day featured article. I was stunned it had an article. --Moni3 (talk) 20:15, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I like Hurricane Katrina (1981). It'll confuse the heck out of people when they hear Hurricane Katrina hit Cuba during the 1981 season. I don't know why I have this page on my watchlist, but this thread caught my eye. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone  20:30, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I'll be working on Dancing mania over the summer (per Nishkid's suggestion). · AndonicO  Engage. 22:22, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
