Editing PlaceNL

r/PlaceNL is the primary community of Dutch users in r/place. The r/PlaceNL community has made a lot of recognisable artworks in past events, including the [[De Nachtwacht Painting]], the [[Zeven Provinciën Painting]], the [[Starry Night Painting]] and more. During an r/place event, the Dutch community can often be found constructing their flag at the top of the canvas. The [https://2023.place-atlas.stefanocoding.me/ 2023] event differs from past events in that the Dutch flag was not at the top of the final canvas. This can be attributed to the fact that the [[Canvas Expansions|canvas expanded]] upwards some days after the start of the event, and that a full-scale move to the new top was deemed not possible nor required by the community.

Starting within the broader r/thenetherlands subreddit during the 2017 event, the group split off into a seperate entity and grew in size during the 2022 and 2023 events, with the r/PlaceNL Discord server passing 10,000 members near the end of the 2023 r/place. The most recognisable work made by the community found in all events they have participated in is the Dutch flag, with an added strip of orange, usually on top. This is in reference to the popular Dutch song "Oranje boven" (Orange on top), which is in itself a reference to the relationship of the Dutch royals with the country.
