Both hooks are good; ALT1 is verified to an online source, assuming good faith for ALT0 source. Both are acceptable but ALT0 is probably the more appealing of of the two. No major close paraphrasing done, a QPQ was provided, the article was long enough and new enough. My only concern is that the part that goes "Her mother was part-French, part-Hawaiian and a descendant of ali‘i (chiefs) from Maui and Hawai‘i Island. Her father was a British..." seems to be a close paraphrase of one of the sources. Once this is resolved this will be good to go. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:33, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Narutolovehinata5: Thanks for the review. I rewrote it. SL93 (talk) 04:54, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
- I wanted to verify ALT0 online so I found this. SL93 (talk) 04:57, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
Should be okay now. I can't see the Google Book link as it gives me an error so I'll assume good faith for that, but I've verified ALT0's source. Both are good to go and either can be promoted by the promoter, but my preference remains ALT0. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 11:55, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
