Article was previously submitted for AfC and declined. It was then moved by the author into mainspace. Based on the sources, I see run-off-the-mill coverage, coverage about the company and a bunch of primary sources. Might be worth looking into potential viable Dutch sources, but the current reference pool doesn't look like a pass of WP:GNG. nearlyevil665 09:41, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Hello! I created this article and submitted for AfC, it was correctly declined last week due to a lack of sufficient sources. I added lots of sources to the draft, I then saw that I could now use my account to move the draft to mainspace so I moved it over.
I do believe the subject meets the criteria cited at [[1]], so I vote **oppose/keep**.
On Wikipedia, the general inclusion threshold is whether the subject is notable enough for at least two people to have written something substantive (more than just a mention) about that subject that has been published in a reliable source.
They are the focus of regular mainstream press coverage in the Netherlands and beyond, including: - 2021 in depth interview[[2]] in the major Dutch newspaper Trouw. - 2018 article about the subject on Bloomberg News[[3]]. - 2018 article about the subject on Business Insider [[4]] - 2015 article about the subject in Dutch publication Quote [[5]]
If I add these sources to the article do you think this would be enough to meet GNG?
Many thanks for your time.

I also note that the subject is listed 10th on List_of_Dutch_by_net_worth, and if no article existed would be the only entry without one. I don't know if that is relevant or not to the discussion!
