Good to go. --SupernovaExplosion ^Talk 00:42, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

I am not sure if we can specify "Holland" in the hook or in the article. The ref uses "Netherlands" and "Dutch", which could also refer to places like Zeeland and Friesland. --PFHLai (talk) 16:32, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

I have changed both the article and the hook to Netherlands. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:12, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
