[edit]
  • ...that Hawaiian vocalist Juliana Walanika, a favorite of Queen Liliuokalani, modernized Hawaiian music during the latter part of the 19th century?

  • New enough and long enough, well cited, neutrally written, no copyvio found, hook is okay and is cited to respectable online sources. QPQ done. Good to go. Moonraker (talk) 11:44, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but the hook seems a little vague. Perhaps you could say what she did to modernize it? Yoninah (talk) 00:00, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
  • Wouldnt it be hookier if it was vague. The sources doesn't specify. It only says that the queen sent her different parts of the islands to perform modern versions of old meles and chants and her style became the standard for modern Hawaiian music.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 05:51, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
  • @KAVEBEAR: somehow that seems like a better hook:
  • ALT1: ... that Hawaiian vocalist Juliana Walanika's updated versions of old meles and chants became the standard for modern Hawaiian music? Yoninah (talk) 11:40, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
  • I can float with the that.–KAVEBEAR (talk) 13:42, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
  • Thank you. I added some links here and in the article. Calling on new reviewer to approve ALT1. Yoninah (talk) 21:29, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
