Failed verification on Daniel Dole

You put the following wikitext in the Daniel Dole article.

Dole is known to have held [[white supremacist]] beliefs which are reflected in his writing and the writings of early students at Punahou School.<ref>{{cite thesis |last=Schulz |first=Joy |date=2011 |title=Empire of the Young: Missionary Children in Hawai'i and the Birth of U.S. Colonialism in the Pacific, 1820-1898 |type=Dissertation |publisher=University of Nebraska |url=https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1035&context=historydiss |access-date=10 June 2020}}</ref> References to [[race science]] and [[degeneration theory]] can be found in many early writings created by and about Punahou School;<ref>{{cite book |last1=Whitney |first1=Henry Martyn |title=Catalogue of the Teachers and Pupils of Punahou School and Oahu College, for Twenty-five Years, Ending 1866 |date=1866 |page=42 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=siEBAAAAYAAJ&dq=daniel+dole+hawaiian+extinct+punahou&source=gbs_navlinks_s}}</ref>{{Additional citation needed|date=June 2020|reason=Other examples would strengthen this section}} the extent of Dole's influence on said writings is not entirely clear.

I reverted your edits because they were vague allegations that failed verification in both sources. If you are going to try to add this again, be prepared to use quotes & specific page numbers for each of those quotes. To allege someone is white supremacist without solid citations violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy.
