    The article is Dutch and people from the Netherlands can read it perfectly fine.

    Flemish is a dialect of Dutch. The official written language in Belgium is Dutch (but with a few tiny changes). Flemish is mostly only spoken. Or written in a more casual setting. In Belgian articles you’ll see Flemish when people are being quoted, or when a common dialect word is used (which gets italicized).
