• - Length, Date, QPQ, and Earwigs check. However, from one of the sources, the newspaper is described as "accommodated to annexation" which is not clear considering the article and hook state that the paper was opposed to the overthrow of the former Kingdom which from my understanding was done to help facilitate annexation. Also, the image has no information about its date of publication or author. Being that this individual lived past 1923 (died in 1935) it is entirely possible that the image was published after 1923 and that the photographer lived beyond 1947 which means that the image might still be covered by copyright.

• Remove image from hook. I believe the photograph dates to the early 1900s or the 19th century given the age of Nāwahī in the photograph compared to her photograph in the 1890s group photograph and it is in the same style as the one made of her husband also from the Hawaii State Archives who died in 1896. I will look into it a bit more.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 23:18, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
• @Mifter Public: Add some sources and tweaked the sentence a bit. The date was also wrong in retrospect. I believe the "accommodated to annexation" refers to the newspaper's stance post 1898, but it was founded to promote Hawaiian independence and protest annexations since that was the overarching political stance of the Republic of Hawaii government. Also it is written that way because of the way the opposition article is titled. I suggest ALT1.

• ALT1...that Emma Nāwahī co-founded the Hawaiian language newspaper Ke Aloha Aina with her husband Joseph Nāwahī to oppose the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands to the United States?

• @Mifter Public:...@Mifter:...let me know what else I can do. Thanks.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 05:32, 18 May 2017 (UTC)

New review needed.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 22:36, 24 May 2017 (UTC)

• ALT1 hook ref verified and cited inline. However, I would write the hook this way, and reduce all the overlinking:
• ALT1a: ... that Joseph and Emma Nāwahī co-founded the Hawaiian-language newspaper Ke Aloha Aina to oppose the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands to the United States?
• Also, I tagged a huge chunk of copied text that has no citation attached. Yoninah (talk) 20:23, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

Added missing reference and I'm good with the new hook.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 23:48, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

• Thank you. ALT1a good to go. If you can determine the licensing on her portrait image before this is promoted, it would enhance this hook. Yoninah (talk) 10:26, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
