Araki Fabulous Willy[edit]

  • Alt1:... that a homosexual couple were criticized for owning a Fabulous Willy whilst at the Crufts dog show in 2007? – I know... but I had to throw it in here. I couldn't help it. Miyagawa (talk) 19:48, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Fine by me, although I can probably make it smuttier... Alt2:... that in 2007, a homosexual couple were criticized for owning a Fabulous Willy? Miyagawa (talk) 18:20, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
  • We're getting into dangerous territory, but this will probably make people go WTF on April 1st. Great for the fish day! Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:45, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Hook: Love it! (For April fools, of course...) I have a bit of a refinement. How about Alt3:... that in 2007, a homosexual couple were criticized for owning a hairy Fabulous Willy? (just look at the fur on him!)
Article: Long enough, new enough. Neutral. Am adding an image with a FUR. Spotchecks are fine.
Summary: Good to go for April Fools after feedback from Miyagawa. Crisco 1492 (talk) 07:51, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
Sounds good, the addition of hairy makes it even funnier. :) Miyagawa (talk) 12:09, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

But is there actually any suggestion that the owners were criticized for owning the dog? Their homosexuality might have drawn criticism, their dog ownership did not. Kevin McE (talk) 23:18, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

  • In that case I suggest Alt4: ... that in 2007, the owners of a hairy Fabulous Willy were criticised for being homosexual? - flips it around so that it's not worded to say they were criticised for owning the dog. Miyagawa (talk) 09:31, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
