Freddie Sessler edit

- ALT1:... that Freddie Sessler was "almost a father" to Keith Richards?
- ALT2:... that Freddie Sessler claimed to have been a millionaire eight times and broke eight times?

- Alt3 ... that Freddie Sessler escaped the Nazis and claimed to have made a fortune selling lightbulbs to the Empire State Building? Not sure he really escaped from a camp. One of his sons doubted it. Philafrenzy (talk) 22:12, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
New, long enough, within policy (checked the entire text against its sources for close paraphrasing, it's neutral enough, and facts are all cited inline). QPQ met. As for the hooks, it's not clear the main one is true, as pointed out by Philafrenzy. ALT2 isn't the best, as it's just something he claimed; ALT1 works but isn't of the most general interest possible with this article. So I'd suggest using ALT3 (or perhaps changing the main hook to "escaped the Nazis"). —innotata 20:23, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
