Nominator has not edited Wikipedia since the day this was nominated, and therefore has not addressed the significant issues raised as part of the review and despite the talk-page pings. Closing as unsuccessful.

... that Paul Schaap is an unrecognised Dutch whistleblower?

I'm not really comfortable with this. The hook says "is an unrecognised whistleblower", but the lead says "He became well known as a whistleblower" and the body says "The judge handeling the whistleblower case of Schaap, concluded that Schaap couldn't get the status of a whistleblower." which is backed by the source. So calling him a whistleblower, unrecognised or not, is not actually correct. I am also concerned about the rule that says "Articles and hooks that focus unduly on negative aspects of living individuals or promote one side of an ongoing dispute should be avoided."

The nominator has not edited since the day of the nomination and has been unable to respond to the initial review or to subsequent pings. Considering the article issues and how the nominator appears unlikely to return, it is with regret that the nomination is now marked for closure.
