@KAVEBEAR: New enough and long enough. QPQ present. Hook is interesting and backed by multiple sources, except the 1910 Pacific Commercial Advertiser article doesn't mention her being a lady-in-waiting to Queen Emma, just Queen Kapi'olani. As a topic expert, can you advise? This is the only issue I see with this article right now. Raymie (t • c) 07:06, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
- Further note, the DYK nomination isn't *quite* at the right title. @Amakuru: or someone else knowledgeable, does this need to be moved to match? Raymie (t • c) 07:06, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Raymie: Don't known what you mean by quite at the right title. Source for Queen Emma: "The deceased was a lady in waiting to the Queen during reign of Kamehameha V and when Kalakaua was elected King she was in the court of the Dowager Queen, Emma. [1]" KAVEBEAR (talk) 07:37, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
