Why does it say in the head of the article He is from Wallonia, the French-speaking region of Belgium.? It is irrelevant! He is Belgian. As his name and birthplace suggest he is a Wallon and was born in the Wallon speaking region of Liege which belongs to the French speaking community of Belgium. He speaks Wallon and French indeed and also Flemish. He is a Belgian not French. It doesn't say in the profiles of cyclists from Flanders they are Flemish . So Tom Boonen is a Flemish cyclist, Jan Raas a Zeelandic cyclist, Levi Heimans a North Hollandic cyclist, Servias Knaven a Limburgic cyclist??? Are you really going to implement all that?

You honestly don't have a clue about Belgium do you? First of all Belgium is a FEDERAL state, so making a comparison with the Netherlands is just plain stupid. He doesn't speak Wallon as that is not a language, but more like a dialect(s). He speaks French and Dutch, but his Dutch is far from perfect(although it is way better then most Walloons). He's a French speaking Belgian from the Région Wallonne which has its own Parliament(although the organisation is far worse then in the Flemmish Community). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.119.21.162 (talk) 16:16, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
