  • @Buidhe:I think the hook stripped out because I added formatting, so just now I put it back without formatting, and cut it down to one hook. If you want formatting I can send a version with that. Oh-Fortuna! (talk) 16:30, 1 May 2025 (UTC)
    • There's a ton of great DYK material in the article, I'm quite sure we can do better than that. Something about being invited to Bhutan, belonging to a Catholic religious order while helping Muslim and Christian women, etc. (t · c) buidhe 04:33, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

      • Shorter is better when it comes to hookiness. I see this is your first DYK so if you don't mind let me propose an alt. Also, please remember to boldface and link the article in question.
