Revision as of 00:59, 3 April 2010
For the last few years, many changes have been made to the wiki on April Fools' Day. This page hopes to document the changes throughout the years. For 2006, there's the obvious WikkiTikkiTavi styling, and the redesigned Main Page, on 2007 CAPTCHA for everybody (sysops too) and the fake message saying the wiki had been shut down, for 2008 the jumbled text on all the pages, and for 2009 the Homestar Runner-related ads. But what about the rest of the hi-larious pranks that happened? This page hopes to document them as well.
Contents |
April Fools' 2006
Main
- Main Page changed to WikkiTikkiTavi Main Page.
- Monobook skin changed to tavistyle. As a side effect of the changes that were made, the other skins in the list stopped functioning correctly.
- Mass public outcry
- HRWiki:A History modified to reflect the downgrade
- There was sufficient demand after April 1 that the TaviStyle skin was made a permanent choice in the user preferences. As of April 2, 2008, 43 users have the option selected in their preferences, about a third of whom have visited the wiki within the last year.
Related
- Fanstuff Wiki put up a fake "You have new messages" banner on the main page. All of the tab titles were changed. Users who wished to complain were directed to their own talk page. The sidebar and some of the other messages were also modified.

- Jay
- User page was altered to be near-identical to the user page of JoeyDay.
- Changed his sig to randomly display a different user name, all but one of which were parodies of other users on the wiki. They were all designed to look like a plain blue link, but only one of them linked anywhere: the "no loafing" in "Hamster Loafer... I said no loafing!!!".

April Fools' 2010
Main

- The wiki's official name was changed to the Dumb Animal Characters Wiki, with the main page and logo edited to reflect the change.
- If you tried to change your signature, the system would automatically change it instead to a random nickname from the list below, which came from one of the Strong Bad Emails or the Nicknames page (bold entries were chosen by the system at some point during the day):
Baron von Flexmypecs, Clever Dan, Cornbread, Crapface, Dead Guy Perez, DJ Dumpy Dump, Doodieman, Dumbname, Dumpface, Dumpus, Elizagerth, Genghis Khan't, Helvetica, Meatball Face Butt, Miss America, Miss July, Mr. Nobody, Mr. Prancy-time, Mr. Smarty-Spots, Ol' Bone Legged, Ol' Butt Patterson, Ol' Dumps, Prancibald, Rondleman, Rotting-Dragonsmith, Sir Dumpenheimer, Strong Mad's Girlfriend, That Freakin' Marshmallow, That Stupid Wheelchair Kid, The Dapper Swindler, The Elephant Man, The Human Grate-On-My-Nerves, The Human Wedgie, The King of the Dregs, The Over-Achiever Bandit, The Queen of Pay-Per-View, This Little Weirdo, Valerie, Weird Snake Joe, Wiggidy-wiener, Worldwide Starlet
- Signatures were in the form: Clever Dan (Talk). The colors were chosen at random from a list that included yellow and white.
- If you tried to change your signature a second time, you were presented with a fake edit conflict preventing it. (This was for system performance reasons more than to be funny, so that ideally each signature template would not be edited more than once during the day.)
- If you tried to change your preferences would result in a message of "Meh, your preferences are probably fine and you shouldn't change them" to prevent you from pointing to a different signature page in your preferences.
- Everyone except developers lost the rights to create pages or move subpages, to avoid the creation of alternate signature pages. (This had the side effect of preventing uploads.)

- The forum was changed to the H. Star Forum: A companion to the Dumb Animal Characters Wiki. Names and descriptions of the various subforums were tweaked, and H. Star was shown as seen in Xeriouxly Forxe.
Users
- Bad Bad Guy
- Inspired by the sight of his signature automatically becoming "Worldwide Starlet," revised User Page intro to include Valspeak.
- User:Jay
- Changed user page to a false Strong Bad Email transcript called "election day. Most of the links on the "election day" page were misleading (for instance, "Strong Bad" in the cast list led to "Strong Mad", and a Wikipedia link reading "G.I. Joe" instead linked to "Kim Possible".) For reference, "election day" was previously written as a failed attempt at an April Fools Day gag in 2007.
- Shine Sprite
- Replaced every character on his user page with a "?", to make it appear as though he was using a font that the user viewing did not have installed on his computer.
- Religious Corn
- Changed all character quotes to Homsar quotes.
- RickTommy
- That'sBupkis
- All userpage content turned into MediaWiki Syntax, and signature linked to random page.

- ColdReactive
- Complete Overhaul of Userpage, signature, navigation and abandoned a personal image purposely for the holiday. The theme used for this was based on a popular Bullet Hell game called Touhou as indicated by an image provided on the page.
- StrongAwesome74
- Attempted to break sig so all following text would appear white, but failed.
- YK
- Replaced his userpage with the entirety of the Cheese page.

Do I still have too much time on my hands?"

Decoded from hex ASCII, this is "Ba lbhe? Gung'f vg? Ba lbhe cvyr bs frperg Nmgrp tbyq? Be ba lbhe pne cubar? Ohg naljnl, lrf. RAHFL", after ROT13, that gives "On your? That's it? On your pile of secret Aztec gold? Or on your car phone? But anyway, yes.

Which is Braille for "Huh? I Definately said "on my hands" at the end there... anyway, that was fun, let's not do it again. (Incidentally, what are the chances of this ending up on your baleeted nonsense page?) --phlip TC" – if you can't read it (if you don't have the appropriate font) you can see it here. Venusy couldn't read it, so that's where the conversation ended.

The "XL ProTime VHS/VCR Player" is the brand of Videocassette recorder that appears in various toons and was first seen in Strong Bad Email 12:00. The mechanical issues such as tracking problems, visible vertical rainbow, and the ubiquitous blinking 12:00 are a running joke. It is usually seen on top of the Telebision. 86.147.22.231 16:23, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
