  • Adding three ALTs below. — Maile (talk) 14:14, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
NOTE: ALT2, if approved, could probably be good as a quirky slot hook. — Maile (talk) 15:48, 19 February 2020 (UTC)

  • This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline but I am only approving ALT1, as the other two hooks are not interesting to the general reader. The article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:23, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this, and do not find ALT1 hooky at all. Most of the hooks read like resume points. I realize there's little to work with in the article, but maybe one really short point could be used as a hook? Pinging nominator and Maile. Yoninah (talk) 18:10, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
@Yoninah: Did a bit of editing to the article:
Note: Liliuokalani died in 1917, so that part of the hook shouldn't have to be sourced. It's unclear if this claim was filed at the end of 1904 when the newspaper published his genealogy, or the beginning of 1905 when he showed his claim papers to others.

  • Thank you, ALT5 is great! Cwmhiraeth, could you review ALT5? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 23:39, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
  • The easy way to find where this is stated in the source: Scroll down the page until on the right-hand side you see the heading "Ladies Auxiliary Elects Officials". Look to the column on the left, and the paragraph right below that point that begins, "The most important document ..." ends with the wording above that I put in quotes. — Maile (talk) 23:52, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
