Created by Crisco 1492 (talk). Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 663 past nominations.

— Chris Woodrich (talk) 20:45, 7 June 2024 (UTC).[reply]

New enough and long enough: yes.
Policy-compliant: yes. Well-written, covers the subject well, reliably sourced, no issues with the text or the image licenses. The sources are almost entirely in Dutch, but Earwig finds no problems in English-language sources.
QPQ: done.
Hook: It tells a compelling story, and the actual words of his speech are clearly sourced.
Other comments: Thank you for an interesting article on a person whose story is important to tell. I made a few minor copyedits to the page. This hook is almost good to go. Before I clear it, I want to check about some of the blue-linking on the page. I think some of the links in the lead section are linked again lower on the page, so I'd like to have the nominator have a chance to check the page once more for (1) any overlinking, and (2) whether there might be any new links to add. I'm not seeing any other issues. --Tryptofish (talk) 22:52, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Tryptofish. Per WP:DL, links may be duplicated in different sections where necessary to establish context. For example, today's FA, The Spider (magazine), links competing publications and the author in the lede and on first mention in the text. As for other links, I didn't see any that seemed to be contextually relevant and likely to have an article. Blauw doesn't have an article even in Dutch. The sugar station might warrant an article at some point, given how big it seems to have been, but I'd have to see how much is available about it. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 23:05, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OK, then, it's good to go. --Tryptofish (talk) 23:07, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
