5x expanded by KAVEBEAR (talk). Self-nominated at 23:12, 31 January 2017 (UTC).

  • This substantial article is a five-fold expansion and is new enough and long enough. The image is in the public domain, the article is neutral and appears to be free of copyvios. I cannot find mention of the Antiques Roadshow in the article. If you want to include it in the hook you will need to mention it in the article with a citation.

  • It doesn't say he was the first Native Hawaiian to paint in the Western style either, as far as I can see. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:07, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
  • Thank you. All the elements of the hook are now included in the article and I recommend ALT1 as having the subject of the article near the beginning of the hook. As the hook is about a painting, it would be nice to include the image when promoted. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:44, 16 February 2017 (UTC).
