A fact from Hahn/Cock appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 2 August 2013 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that a giant blue cock standing 4.7 metres (15 ft) high has been erected in Trafalgar Square?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2013/August.

The current (2017) location of the sculpture

Please note that there are TWO copies of this sculpture. Do not keep changing the location. The one in Minneapolis is not the original that was first displayed in Trafalgar Square. That one moved to Washington, DC. The second copy is now in the sculpture garden of the Walker Art Center. StarryGrandma (talk) 23:01, 26 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

no analogous double meaning of the German word

hahn in German has the same double meaning as "cock" in English

I'm not aware of any such double meaning of the German word... and a quick internet search has not brought any such evidence either. The only 'source' seems to be "France 24", which does not quite strike me to be a particularly reliable source for German double entendres. So if someone has a reliable source that the German word is by Germans understood to mean "penis" (or that artist Fritsch mis-believed the German word to have a sexual double meaning), please reintroduce it into the article (and kindly let me know)... but else, I'm afraid, we'll leave the double meaning to the English word, which the artist has understood well enough... --Ibn Battuta (talk) 21:08, 30 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
