- ... that four old tower mills in the Netherlands are the Buitenmolen, the Grafelijke Korenmolen, the Torenmolen van Gronsveld and the Zwaan?
- ALT1:... that the Buitenmolen, the Grafelijke Korenmolen, the Torenmolen van Gronsveld and the Zwaan are the oldest tower mills in the Netherlands?
- Comment: These four are the only windmills in the Netherlands conforming to the dutch definition of torenmolen (tower mill), however the English definition is more broad and includes all brick or stone windmills. The alternative hook could be confusing to Dutch readers.

Articles are all new (when nominated), long enough and with NPOV and plenty of inline citations. The references are all in Dutch but seem to agree (using an online translator). The first hook should probably read .... that four oldest tower mills in the Netherlands..... would this be correct? Hughesdarren (talk) 09:57, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
AGFing on the foreign language references, which seem to check out. Otherwise, a nice set of articles, approving ALT1, as I think it can be assumed that on the english WP we will use the english definition.--Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 16:41, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
