Adèle van der Pluijm-Vrede

Created by Crispulop (talk). Self nominated at 13:19, 30 May 2013 (UTC).

  • Symbol question.svg Long and new enough, propererly sourced (to a large degree online sources in English), interesting hook. I think an update on the prime minister issue (Ivar Asjes)is desirable. (The last paragraph uses court records as a source, which I think may be somewhat questionable for an issue regarding living persons, but I don't think it's a major issue since there is also secondary sources for the court claim.) So, I think the article is basically good to go when the prime minister issue has been addressed. Iselilja (talk) 06:51, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
  • Thank you for reviewing! I updated the article with the installing of Ivar Asjes' government. I agree with you that the use of court information as source is not great. However, it was the only (credible) information that I could find on how the legal proceedings against Van der Pluijm-Vrede finished. If I let the source out it makes her case look much worse. Which doesn't correspond to the current and actual situation. Leaving the whole section on the legal issues out is not an option either because an article should both mention the positive and the negative issues associated with a person. To me, this seemed the best thing to do.
I might have an alternative hook which could be more interesting by providing a bigger contrast, I hope you could review that as well.
ALT1: ... that the acting Governor of the Caribbean island of Curaçao, Adèle van der Pluijm-Vrede signed the Act of Abdication of Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands?

  • Symbol confirmed.svg Thank you. Then I think the article is good to go with hook ALT1 (allthough I didn't have any issue with the first hook either). Regards, Iselilja (talk) 15:39, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
