  • Looks good to me: most of the work was done on the 6th and 7th of September, the article is very long and well-cited, and the hook is interesting to a broad audience as a general critique of colonialism by a governor of a former colony. Psiĥedelisto (talk) 08:37, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote ALT0, but I'm wondering why you're not using the whole quote both here and in the article?
  • ALT0a: ... that according to Johannes Latuharhary, the Dutch education system in Ambon, Maluku, was designed to create "scribes and clerks, soldiers and sailors"? Yoninah (talk) 01:40, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
@Yoninah: Good point - that full quote is on a different page from what I cited - probably missed it. ALT0 should be used and I've updated the article with the longer quote. Juxlos (talk) 22:16, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
  • I should cut down on editing past 11PM. But yeah, 0a. Juxlos (talk) 23:23, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
