I think the biggest problem is that a certain group of Dutch moderators take decisions for example to block someone for a long time, without being interested in the opinion of the community. Something there is some admin power abuse done by that specific group of moderators. Now the case is that

The Dutch Wikipedia is not paradise. But you give the impression that there is a group of admins on the Dutch Wikipedia who are behaving strongly against the wishes of the community. And that those are now also controlling those new chapters.
This is highly incorrect.
The Dutch Wikipedia is probably the only Wikipedia who has such easy and extensive procedures who makes it nearly impossible for a group of sysops to behave strongly against the wishes of the community.
There is a de-sysop procedure who every user can start against a sysop. And this lead to vote of confidence where the sysop needs at least 75% in favor to stay sysop.
Besides this is there also the reconfirmation procedure. *Every* sysop needs to be re-confirmed every year. When there is objection made against a sysop that sysop needs to survive a vote where the need also to get 75% in favor.
Currently on the Dutch Wikipedia the 2th round of the re-confirmation procedure of the 2th quarter the year is active.
Those are the sysops where there was made objections against in the 1th round. The include "Oscar" and "Galwaygirl" who are key-members of the board of those new Dutch Wikimedia chapters.
You can see in this vote the have large support from the community; http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Regelingen_rond_moderatoren/Bevestigi...
