Overall: This is the best hook I've ever seen since I began doing DYK reviews here. Ritchie333, do you mind if I nom this as a hook for WP:DYKAPRIL? Pinging The C of E as the chief of staff of DYKAPRIL 😂. Regards, Jeromi Mikhael ( marhata) 13:39, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

  • @ Jeromi Mikhael: You really don't have to ask my permission to place any hooks in DYK, you can just do it! As much as I'd love to, I hold no official role on April Fools for DYK, I am merely a zealous advocate that for one day, we can have a little fun on the front page. Besides, it's only about a week before the day that you get the scrutiny and arguments about inclusion. But for me, the more the merrier. The C of E God Save the Queen!

  • You could see that I put a laughing emoji after the "chief of staff" mention. Regards, Jeromi Mikhael ( marhata) 13:47, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
I was personally considering 7 January - the first anniversary of his death - but April Fools works for me too. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:48, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
I'd be fine with that. We should always respect the nominator's wishes @ Jeromi Mikhael:. The C of E God Save the Queen! ( talk) 15:23, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
