Article is new enough and long enough, with sources throughout. AGF on the Dutch language sources. The 1996 and 2016 medals are sourced in the lead, though the 1996 appearance is not mentioned in the body as it should be. This is not a DYK requirement though. Article appears to be written neutrally, and QPQ is done. Please promote for the Paralympics. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:23, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
