Talk:Integration law for new immigrants to the Netherlands

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Wording, style and neutrality

The article is too personal. It is based on too many personal feelings, certainly POV. To help the case of immigrants in Holland, it is better to write the criticism in a NPOV manner with good references, --C6H12O6 14:34, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

The article voices popular criticisms and complaints that, if I remember it well, have also been voiced in Dutch media. I admit that the article may not be neutral, but I do not think it is based merely on personal feelings. Andries 06:22, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

I have removed the term "assimilation" from the article, because I think it makes a POV charicature of the law. Please only re-insert the term with citations to reputable sources. I think the article makes a lot of criticism of the law, but it does not attempt to give an explanation of why this law came into existence. There are quite a lot of foreigners here who lived more than 10 years in the Netherlands, but cannot find a job, partially because they never bothered to learn Dutch.

I propose the title Integration law for new immigrants to the Netherlands. Andries 07:59, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

People are not helped to integrate but forced to do so. High fines are given when you do not cooperate. Andries (talk) 09:02, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
