A fact from Walter White (Tennessee politician) appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 24 March 2023 (
check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Walter White was a member of the prosecution for the
Scopes trial in 1925 despite not passing the
bar until 1944?
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,
the article's talk page or
Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
date, length, close paraphrase check ok. Both original hook and ALT1 are sourced in article. QPQ still pending. But I'm not sure I get the April Fool's point completly.

Scopes trial in 1925, despite not passing the
bar until 1944?"
