A fact from Julia Alapai appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 1 December 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Hawaiian chiefess Julia Alapai died right before the French invasion of Honolulu by Admiral Tromelin in 1849, prompting her husband Keoni Ana and King Kamehameha III to return to the capital?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2012/December. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Julia Alapai.

Portrait of the chiefess, by an unknown artist, in the parlor at Hānaiakamalama.

Help getting a better quality image for this article will be appreciated.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 00:35, 1 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

I contest the removal of the image because I do see an encyclopedic value in an image of a historical figure no matter how poor it may be. The only problem I see is the quality but it certainly gives the reader an incentive to visit the museum and take a better image. If you disagree, we can discuss this further or choose the route of RfC. I have little time for any long winded arguments on Wikipedia with school and classes. --KAVEBEAR (talk) 03:57, 28 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

That is one of the worst file I have ever seen on Wikipedia. Seriously. It adds no EV. I have begun a discussion on the project talk page to get a project level opinion before I take any other steps.--Mark Miller (talk) 04:21, 28 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

Per Image use policy and the comment at the Graphics lab when this was created, I am removing this image again and posting what was stated about the image at the image lab request:

" Done This isn't a poor quality image, this is a grease spot. At what point do you decide an image is just so bad the article is simply better off without it? – JBarta (talk) 03:31, 28 March 2012 (UTC)"[1]

Her obituary says she was 35 making her born in 1813 or 1814 not 1802 as Kekoolani claims.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 20:25, 31 May 2014 (UTC)Reply
