I've once heard that the settling of Flevoland was also an "experiment", as officials could select who could move in. Can anyone tell me if this is true? DodgeK 00:50, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
Yes, what does Flevolands Volkslied mean in English? Moriori 01:54, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
The following posts occurred on the reference desk. I have cut and pasted them here in case they are useful for developing the article. Please do not edit between the horizontal rules as that is a verbatim quote. -- SGBailey ( talk) 16:06, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
I have several questions about Flevoland that our article doesn't answer (or doesn't answer well). Flevoland appears to be in three bits Nordostpolder, Eastern flevoland and southern flevoland. Nordostpolder is the island to the top right in the map image. Presummably the other two areas form the other larger southern island. Is that the case? Why are they named separately? Where is the border between them? Then there is the history. Our pages flevoland and zuiderzee and the offical http://provincie.flevoland.nl/welcome_in_flevoland/about_flevoland/history_of/ skimp on details. In particular, when (year? or full date?) was it decided to create these islands? When did construction of the islands start (presumably building the walls and draining the middles)? When was the island construction deemd 'complete'? If that is too ambiguous to answer, when did the first dwelling get built/inhabited? And lastly how was the remains of the salt from the salt water sea managed - didn't it leave the ground 'toxic'? -- SGBailey ( talk) 22:20, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
There are actually seven pumping stations, while the article mentions only three or four. See this page (in Dutch) on the website of Waterschap Zuiderzeeland. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.53.205.91 ( talk) 19:03, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
