Oh this is something else. Can we have it for April Fools day? Or would you rather run now? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:42, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
- April Fool's Day is many months away. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 14:15, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
- And waiting is still within policy. So you want this run now? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:25, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
- In September there was said to be a serious drought. I don't know if that persists, but I would prefer to run the hook now as it may be less relevant in April. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:20, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
