1. Well-written:
	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.	Thorough copyedit needed: who were also his first-cousins by virtue of his mothers other marriages. -> mother's the intervention Naeʻole who escape with the child -> intervention of Naeʻole, who escaped the subsequent civil war between his cousins Keeaumoku Nui and Kalaninuiamamao ~~that followed~~: redundant When a niece of his Kekuʻiapoiwa -> his niece, Kekuʻiapoiwa (redundant) Since this is an English encyclopaedia, Hawaii should be Hawaii, not Hawaiʻi (Hawaiian language spelling). Both spellings used. his relations with Maui was friendly -> were

I made corrections. Can I nominate article again?--Miha (talk) 17:45, 27 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, now I can only wait. I asked User:KAVEBEAR and he said that this article maybe is not as good as article about one queen of Madagascar. But I would like to try nominate it.--Miha (talk) 17:53, 27 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article suffers greatly from a few problems tha even I seem to make on occasion and Kavebear has pointed this out...page numbers for the references. I have been attempting to locate the few references where the page number did transpose correctly with the reference tool I use, but there are a few too many here for the size of the article. After two years since this GA review, I would think there would have been some expansion by now. Seems a little short to be considered GA if it doesn't even qualify as a C article yet. Still start class.--Mark Miller (talk) 04:03, 12 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
