Agnes Denes[edit]

I added an internal link to Agnes Denes. Cound someone find local documentation, or expand on this? Pustelnik (talk) 15:16, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Holland[edit]

Is "Dutch Water Line" an existing term in English? Considering this is one of the three Water Lines in The Netherlands defending Friesland, Holland and Sealand, it's a bit curious to see this one called "Dutch". Mysha (talk)

renaming to Hollandic Waterline[edit]

The page was moved to Hollandic waterline in May 2013. However, the foundation maintaining the line names it Dutch waterline on its own homepage [1]. Also Google searches show that Dutch waterline is much more common. I propose to move it back to the original name (Dutch water line). Arnoutf (talk) 08:10, 29 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Concur, moved. Rosguill^talk 03:30, 1 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Waterline or Water Line?[edit]

Both are used in the article and both appear in lots of books in Google Scholar. Personally I prefer "Waterline" as it aligns with the Dutch spelling, but I'm open to arguments either way...Facts707 (talk)
