Janny Knol

[edit]

I recently created the page Janny Knol, the chief of the Dutch police. Could someone help me integrate/add it into the Wikiproject. Also, if you know more, please help edit. Thanks. Alexander vee (talk) 01:17, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We could probably use the help of someone who can read the source in question in its original language to resolve a minor ambiguity in the article. Just Step Sideways from this world ..... today 21:41, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

19th century Dutch language poetry: Request for input at the reference desk

[edit]

Someone has asked a question at the Humanities reference desk, where some of you might like to weigh in. The question is at Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Humanities#List_of_the_most_important_19th_c._poems_in_the_Dutch_language. Many thanks in advance! ---Sluzzelin talk 16:17, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Women in Green's October 2024 edit-a-thon

[edit]

Hello WikiProject Netherlands:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2024!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2024, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!

Dutch capitalization again once more

[edit]

I have already talked about this but every time the conversation stalls. I made the following hatnote template (for the moment at User:ReyHahn/dutch):

To be added to articles that have Dutch names (from the Netherlands) to specify that a certain Dutch name should be in uppercase. Such a template could be specially important in science articles were Dutch names are often used without the first name. Do you agree with the template? ReyHahn (talk) 15:47, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is complicated. The first letter is capitalized unless a given name, initial, title of nobility, or other family name (e.g., in the married name of women) precedes it, see Dutch name#tussenvoegsels, With that, I would agree with the hatnote.

Just to be clear with titles of nobility. It is capitalized in Mr. De Haas but not in Baron de Haas (or any nobility title)?--ReyHahn (talk) 09:18, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
