Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a popular Wikipedia page every day.

With 275,564 views on Wednesday, 1 April 2020 our article of the day is April Fools' Day.

April Fools' Day or April Fool's Day (sometimes called All Fools' Day) is an annual custom on April 1 consisting of practical jokes and hoaxes. Jokesters often expose their actions by shouting "April fools" at the recipient. Mass media can be involved in these pranks, which may be revealed as such the following day. The day is not a public holiday in any country except Odessa in Ukraine, where the first of April is an official city holiday. The custom of setting aside a day for playing harmless pranks upon one's neighbor has been relatively common in the world historically.

This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:05 UTC on Thursday, 2 April 2020.
