Post Midnight Edits edit
- Post Midnight Edits should be kept in, as it seems to be over and there are only a few, and this page is for the purposes of documenting the edit war. JustAnotherWikiUser0816 (talk) 00:44, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
- Agreed. There really aren't that many of them, and the final entry of the permanent title should put a stop to future changes. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 01:00, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
- I'm just upset that I got warned for reverting the deletion because that user using the IP was sick of the war. JustAnotherWikiUser0816 (talk) 02:25, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

An apology edit
I looked through the page history again, and I think I started this edit war. I was the person who changed "General Jerryfoolery" to "General Tomfoolery". At the time I thought it was funny because there had been some minor edit-warring on that subject the past couple years. I had no idea how bad it would get. I’m so sorry, guys. —pythoncoder (talk | contribs) 15:13, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
- Don’t worry about it. This wasn’t really an edit war, but rather a fun community event masquerading as an edit war. Sure it got a bit chaotic, but it occurred on a page dedicated to documenting April Fools Day pranks. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 18:34, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
