Hi all!

Looks like we are really going to make it: the islands of the Dutch
Carribean are joining Wiki Loves Monuments 2017!

Wikipedia on the Dutch Carribean
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_Caribbean>:

*The Dutch Caribbean refers to territories, colonies, and countries, both
former and current, of the Dutch Empire
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_Empire> and the Kingdom of the
Netherlands <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_the_Netherlands> that
are located in the Lesser Antilles
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lesser_Antilles> archipelago of the
Caribbean Sea <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caribbean_Sea>.*


* Current territories comprise the islands of Aruba
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aruba>, CuraƧao
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cura%C3%A7ao>, Sint Maarten
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sint_Maarten>, Bonaire
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonaire>, Sint Eustatius
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sint_Eustatius>, and Saba
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saba>. The contemporary term is sometimes
also used for the Caribbean Netherlands, an entity since 2010 consisting of
the three islands of Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, which are special
municipalities of the Netherlands
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caribbean_Netherlands#Administration>.*
The Dutch team is supporting the Dutch Carribean in collecting the lists
needed for the competition and facilitating the juryprocess.
Are you a resident of the islands, do you want to join the team and help?
Let me know!

Cheers,
Ciell
