:Rex Germanus, I don't think the description of the Dutch as "a Germanic people" is ideologically inspired, I just think it's dubious. When you claim to use it as a scientific term, you should provide sources for that. I don't consider a Teleac article (not annotated) as a very authoritative one.

::The teleac article isn't used for the Germanic claim /fact, but the Frankish ancestry, and Teleac, may be expected to be the unbiased and educative of all Dutch broadcasters.[[User:Rex Germanus|Rex]] 13:51, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
:::Okay, I was mixing those two things up, but they certainly are related. I still think the claims of Frankish heritage, being Germanic etc. are rather vague and too much of a popular generalization. The fact that Teleac is an unbiased and educative broadcast company doesn't necessarily make it a scientifically accurate source. On the other hand, if you or someone else can demonstrate that both claims are supported by mainstream science, I am completely at peace with it. But I have some doubt
