Reason	This is the oldest publication of the Dutch National Anthem, Het Wilhelmus, as featured in the documentary series "De Gouden Eeuw" by the Dutch public television broadcaster NTR. I couldn't find an online version of it so I ordered a scan from the library. It arrived today by mail on a CD --Vera (talk) 13:46, 9 February 2013 (UTC) -- Vera (talk)
Review (criteria)	Support Nice and very valuable. Added in the french WP. Furthermore, I love the melody of this anthem. Did you know that it is the most ancient national anthem in the world (1574) ? To be sung next end of April...--Jebulon (talk) 16:37, 10 February 2013 (UTC)  Info :If you look the first letter of each verse (in red in this version), you will read the acrostic "WILLEM VAN NASSOV". Funny, isn't it ? --Jebulon (talk) 16:57, 10 February 2013 (UTC) I did know that, but it's nice to see your enthusiasm :) --Vera (talk) 12:30, 14 February 2013 (UTC) Of course my comments were not for you, as I was sure a dutch lady like you knows obviously that ! :) --Jebulon (talk) 16:09, 14 February 2013 (UTC) Result: 1 support, 0 oppose => promoted.
