Prof: Alan Turing Decoded
- ... that Turing wrote Prof: Alan Turing Decoded 60 years after he died?
- ALT1:... that Alan Turing's nephew, Dermot Turing, wrote the biography Prof: Alan Turing Decoded ?
- Reviewed: Primary One Admission System
- Comment: First hook is a bit more "April Fools'"-y, but still factual (the ambiguous "he" refers to Alan, not Dermot). If it's not funny enough, the alt should work for a non-April 1 hook.

- Lua error: expandTemplate: template "y" does not exist.
- (By the way, the two inline citations at the end of the "Synopsis" section are meant to be the references for the entire section, mainly because I haven't actually read the book in question.) — Bilorv (talk) 10:35, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
Hi, I came by to promote ALT0, but the article doesn't give any date for Alan Turing's death so I can't tell if the hook is accurate. Yoninah (talk) 20:00, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
- Template:Ping: try The British Library for example. Plenty of sources in Alan Turing would do, as would the book Prof: Alan Turing Decoded itself. He died on 7 June 1954 and the book was published on 15 September 2015. Just to double check, this is being added to the April Fools' Day prep area, right? — Bilorv (talk) 20:47, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

- Template:Ping I've added a couple of sentences about Alan Turing under "History", including birth and death years in parentheses. — Bilorv (talk) 22:34, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
