==Instructions== | |||
* When April Fool's Day begins: | |||
*# Upload all relevant articles, images, and wiki changes. | |||
*# Update the front page so that it somehow shows the joke. Featured article, News, etc. | |||
*# Tweet about it, and post it on Facebook. | |||
* To finish the joke: | |||
*# Move all created articles to subpages under [[Pikipedia:{{BASEPAGENAME}}]], with redirects. | |||
*# For each made-up article: | |||
*## Add a <nowiki>{{DISPLAYTITLE:}}</nowiki> tag to the top that sets the page title, as to remove the "Pikipedia:April Fool's Day/" part. | |||
*## Add an {{tem|afd}} template above everything in the page. | |||
*## Make sure it is not categorized (except for [[:Category:April Fool's Day]]). If you want, replace existing maintenance templates with calls to {{tem|box}}. | |||
*## If there is a possibility that users can stumble into this page while searching for something similar, place a [[:Category:Disambiguation link templates|disambiguation template]]. | |||
*## Check [[Special:WhatLinksHere|what links to the old page name]], and make all links point directly to the new page's location. This includes other April Fool's Day articles as well. | |||
*# Create sections on [[Pikipedia:{{BASEPAGENAME}}]] explaining this year's jokes. | |||
*# Update [[Template:News]] to mention the fact that we made a joke, and link to [[Pikipedia:{{BASEPAGENAME}}]]'s respective section. | |||

* Things to keep in mind: | |||

Okay we can change the logo on Midnight on April first and make it a Bulborb, then 24 hours later, revert it.
