A fact from Loy (spade) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 11 June 2011 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the loy is an early Irish spade used for manual ploughing prior to and during the Irish Potato Famine?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2011/June.

Wikipedia

Recent Irish Times article claims that the loy is the root of the, now mostly Northern, Irish slag "dig/kick with the other foot"/"what foot does he kick with". Think that might warrant a mention?
