NPOV?

[edit]
I would like to remove the following:
   "In practice, Hawaii gave enormous support to the United States, which demonstrated its value as a naval base in wartime and won widespread American approval for its non-neutral behavior"
It sounds like puffery. Objections?Cutelyaware (talk) 07:31, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No objections, I was about to add some sources for other parts and I thought the same thing. ZSaskia (talk) 02:17, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Objection: Keep this simple noncontroversial and important fact. It is not the opinion of a Wiki editor-- it is the consensus of scholars. quoting from Ralph S. Kuykendall, Hawaii: a history, from Polynesian kingdom to American State (1961) pp 188-189 When the Spanish American War broke out: "The Hawaiian government threw aside its neutrality and did all it could to aid the Americans....Honolulu became a mid-ocean stopver for the United States troops that were sent across the Pacific to follow up Dewey's victory. The American soldiers were enthusiastically welcomed and given a taste of Hawaiian hospitality." Rjensen (talk) 02:51, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect July 4 1894 and has thus listed it for discussion. This discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 November 13#July 4 1894 until a consensus is reached, and readers of this page are welcome to contribute to the discussion.
