 * Hooks seems to be covered by this: "Jews constitute about 80% of all immigrants from the former Soviet states." but I am not 100% sure. I left a note to the nominator. — ΛΧΣ  21™  10:49, 27 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is. What's the problem with that? That seems to be the most interesting sentence of the article, so I decided to make it the hook.-- Ե րևանցի ասելիք կա՞  14:09, 27 October 2012 (UTC)
 * There is no problem. I just needed to verify thet it truly was it, because the wording on the article leads to confusion when compared to the hook (but it's a personal opinion). So, it is Symbol confirmed.svg Good to go for me. — ΛΧΣ  21™  18:45, 27 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Symbol possible vote.svg People from Soviet states are different from Russian speakers. If that is your reference it doesn't defend your hook. Secretlondon (talk) 21:24, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Where did I say that they are the same? Instead of saying "most Russian-speakers in the United States are Jewish immigrants from Russia, Ukraine and Belarus", the hook says "the former Soviet Union". What's the problem with that? -- Ե րևանցի ասելիք կա՞  00:32, 2 November 2012 (UTC)
