 * No problem. I would have done the bolding myself, but some folks get tetchy when you meddle with their nominations.Georgejdorner (talk) 16:50, 14 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Symbol voting keep.svg Well its long enough and it has enough refs. I read the hook as if he played these roles in Germany. I like your alt below. Translations seem good but I don't think you can bathe in dilute hydrogen. I'm having difficulty accessing newspapers.com so I will have to AGF some of the refs. The image is sadly only fair use and I might suggest that you choose one of him in Nazi uniform. QPQ done.Victuallers (talk) 20:33, 17 January 2016 (UTC)


 * (alt1) ... that Lionel Royce, who fled Europe due to the Nazi persecution of Jews, ironically became well known in American films for playing a Nazi?
