Under geography ( https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=North_Brabant&action=edit§ion=2) there are 2 images that are showing underneath the tex and ruining the lay-out. I think they should both be under the sidebar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Binsento ( talk • contribs) 10:57, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
Based on the WikiProject Countries, I made the following template for the Dutch provinces. Any comments are welcome. Don't pay to much attention to the text, it's just taken from the current article. Jeronimo
P.S. I don't expect there to be many full articles as for the country pages, and I therefore have use the normal WikiHeadings.
I like it, but I am a little concerned that these administrative subdivision tables and headings look way too similar to the country tables and headings. In my opinion the format of the page should be different enough for a regular Wikipedia reader to know instantly if they have landed at an article on a country or a subdivision of a country. In short the format itself should give the primary piece of info in these cases: Is it a nation, or a part of a nation? Different fill colors might do the trick... Other ideas?-- mav
Major point: Take a look at WikiProject French departements. It would be good to have a similar outlook, we could then set a common standard that could also be used for other province-like entities (Belgian provinces, British counties, Italian regions...)
Minor points: The first part of 'History' should not be under this header. Should we put it above the first header, or get it under a header as 'General'. Also, I doubt whether much will be said about some of the subjects - only 'History' and 'Municipalities' seem to be sure bets to contain information for each province. Would it be better to leave the empty ones out or to keep them in? Andre Engels
I think the French departments table is a bit too limited -- there isn't a place for flags and seals for example. One of my original thoughts for the country tables was to use different fill colors for each continent the nation was located in. But then horror overtook me when I tried to figure out what colors are associated with which continents - that could have been ugly.
However, simply having a different fill color for admin subdivs would be one thing that could set those tables apart from country tables. We could possibly have all countries with the current gray fill and then have a multitude of colors for the subdivs with different colors for subdivs located in different geographic areas within a country (or just have one color for all subdivs). Jeronimo's idea of having an obvious "Province of" heading in the table would also be a great idea. Now the questions are; what color(s) and where to place the heading? -- mav
Since Jeronimo asked, I think it's an excellent idea, and certainly one that won't take as long as the other administrative subdivisions projects (though the eventual municipalities project will be ;)), and I'm willing to help. I'm not entirely convinced of the need of colours though. I'm the one that originally added the gray background colour and it was to distinguish between the background and flags/arms with white running to the edge. Gray is not very frequently used in flags and such. If you were to pick colours for different countries, you'd need to make sure not too many of the flags of the provinces/departments/etc. contain that colour. I would say that the current title should make it clear enough. Scipius 17:33 Sep 29, 2002 (UTC)
Talk from former /Temp page:
What shall we choose as the English name for the Commissaris van de Koningin? "Commissioner to the Queen" certainly is a very good name, but very literal. This page from the BuZa calls it "Queen's Commissioner", but I myself would like to suggest perhaps "Royal commissioner", though it may be too general a name. Then again, it would save us the trouble of changing all the references when the next King arrives. ;) Just a thought, I quite like CttQ actually. Scipius 18:57 Sep 30, 2002 (UTC)
How come there's no South Brabant, the natural opposite in name of North Brabant? -- Menchi 10:03, 29 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Though possibly ranging into the somewhat insignificant, it can be said that the culture and general mentality in Brabant, more specifically the area identified as "beneat the rivers", that area which has mostly remained catholic due to the fact that it was not part of the Union of Utrecht is quite different when compared to the rest of the country, if only due to the fact that the religion is entirely different. Generally, southern Dutch people, especially in more rural areas, are identified as "Burgundians", which is basically a name given to people with a relatively lavish lifestyle. This can be justified by the fact that the Duchy of Brabant was part of the House of Burgundy. -- 213.84.161.16 21:51, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
Changed "Antwerp" in the History section to "Antwerpen", which is the Dutch(/Flemish) name of Antwerp. Since Brussels and Louvain were also mentioned by their Dutch names, I believe this is fair. I of course included the English name within paranthesis as was already done with Brussels and Louvain. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dapperedavid ( talk • contribs) 19:19, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
Hello, I apologize in advance for not creating an account for this suggestion.
The correct recipe for brabants worstenbrood doesn't use ground beef, but a 50/50 mix of ground beef and ground pork.

I have noticed that the flag of North Brabant is really similar to the flag of the Croatian Kingdom. Considering its adaptation, the flag itself has some esteemed typos in similarity to the Croatian one.
