[edit]

As a note for next year, please refer to the discussions on 2011's April Fool's ITN, discussions seem to indicate that many users consider that 'serious' news cannot be completely frown out from ITN due to the time-sensitivity for posting them, it resulted that only one April Fool's item got posted. Discussion of this could be appropriate at WT:ITN. Cenarium (talk) 22:30, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No April Fool's ITN item was posted in 2012. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:08, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
