 * Symbol confirmed.svg What a life! Based on excellent sources. Thank you for a wealth of reading when following the chapters! I like the ALT better because it mentions the languages in the "literary" context. - Just wondering if any reason could be drawn from the sources for why she moved to Isreal. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:16, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
 * comment: I just finished reviewing it too, but Gerda beat me to the post. What a fabulous article. Thank you SusunW (talk) 21:05, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Sorry, Susun! Sometimes I make an initial post when I start a review but not this time ;) (Same thing happened to me before, btw.) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:12, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
 * thanks for the review. I think her aliyah to Israel has to do with the fact that she married an Israeli-born husband, though I didn't find that explicitly in the sources. Yoninah (talk) 21:21, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Love: a good reason ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:24, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
