Apologies if this is common knowledge
Pretty much everything on this thread is common knowledge 🙂 I have a spoke bent into a coat hanger shape at the other end, even easier to manipulate the nipple into place than just using a straight spoke.
I use a cotton bud with one bud cut off. It jams into the nipple and allows you to make the first couple of turns before being simply pulled out.
