I am not a stickler for a day of so difference, although I can't speak for the senior mods. Date, size, refs, copyvio spotcheck, QPQ, are good. I do have concerns over the hook. The article does not mention Poland anywhere. Frankly, the lead and article suggest that they escaped from Germany, then France. Unless this is clarified in the article, the hook should be adjusted to Germany and France. And it probably should mention the Holocaust or WWII for context; the reader may be confused otherwise. Please ping me if any replies are made here. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:45, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
@Piotrus: 'facepalm' complete goof on my part, it was extremely late when i wrote this hook and I had just written about someone who had fled germany and poland - fixed lol Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 03:47, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- @Generalissima: Then we are good, although I still think the hook could be better of mentioning WWII or The Holocaust for context. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:20, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
