?????? "Helped saved The queen of Rimatara Island in French Polynesia issued a royal declaration roughly 100 years ago that locals claim saved the last naturally occurring population of the lorikeet. The decree thwarted lorikeets from being caught and removed from Rimitara. Queen Rongomatane of Atiu in the Cook Islands escorted 27 of the birds on the passage back to her island."

Discussion

Prose Suggestions

Please note that all of these are suggestions, and can be implemented or ignored at your discretion.

Lede

Suggest expanding lede as possible, possibly with the context of the annexation (mentioning that neighboring King Teuruarii IV of Rurutu had his kingdom annexed in an attempt at colonial centralization); should also definitely mention her death and internment in the lede. -- Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 19:30, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Early life

Should include a source talking about Tamaeva herself being Protestant as it's mentioned in the infobox but not the body. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 19:34, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's not going to exist. There are already scant sources on her to begin with. She was present at the consecration of a Protestant church and the island was converted by LMS missionaries. KAVEBEAR (talk) 20:14, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rule as regent

Her father died in 1865. It is assumed that a brother or a male relative succeeded to the throne as Tamaeva III followed by his daughter Queen Tamaeva IV Not super clear if this means it was a brother/relative of Tamaeva II or Tamaeva V, or if the daughter (Tamaeva IV) is the daughter of II or III so I'd suggest Her father died in 1865, succeeded by Tamaeva III, who is presumed to be a brother or male relative of Tamaeva II/V; Tamaeva III was himself succeeded by Queen Tamaeva, daughter of Tamaeva II/III.
Heimataura served as regent for the teenage Tamaeva IV. Foreign travelers including French Protestant missionary Frédéric Vernier of the Paris Evangelical Missionary Society recorded the existence of an adolescent queen and a queen regent in 1892. this and the lack of dates seem to imply that the precise chronology of succession is unknown, would sources allow a sentence explaining that this is so?
The French version of the story was that the queen... for NPOV reasons I think the wording needs to be changed, suggest The French sources state that the queen..., unless this is only the statement of the French government, and not French sources documenting along national lines; if its a matter of the French government I'd suggest The French Government claimed that the queen...
