  • Comment: Her life is a lot more interesting than this hook implies. Yoninah (talk) 02:34, 2 November 2015 (UTC) I agree Victuallers (talk) 18:20, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
  • (alt1)... that the German socialist refugee Mary Saran stayed in England where she wrote about "winning the peace" and "re-making Germany"?
  • (alt2)... that the German refugee Mary Saran had a marriage of convenience to help her stay in Britain?
Length and age is fine although there maybe better hooks. Lots of refs and many in German. Its neutral. If we can find a hook then this will be ready to go Victuallers (talk) 18:20, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
  • I like ALT2. Yoninah (talk) 18:50, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

ALT2 onky So see above. @Yoninah: will confirm that the hook fact is inline for the hook he likes and its sourced. Lots of German sources but I spotted no close paraphrasing on the en:sources I looked at. Victuallers (talk) 19:24, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

  • Thanks, @Victuallers: for the alts. ALT2 hook ref verified and cited inline. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 19:51, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
