سانچہ:Did you know/Queue/3

Next update

NOTE: Since on average about 50% of hooks on the suggestions page are U.S. related, it is usually appropriate to have roughly half the hooks in any given update on U.S. topics. Thanks.

Hooks

From Wikipedia's newest articles: Book of Leinster سانچہ:*mp... that Áed Ua Crimthainn, abbot of Terryglass, Ireland, was the compiler and principal scribe of the Book of Leinster, a Middle Irish illuminated manuscript (pictured)? سانچہ:*mp... that even though they were five points ahead of 1.
