I'll take this one, it looks interesting. Comments:

Lots of red links here. Not a demand on my part, but I suggest that either they are cut down or, hopefully, they turn blue in the near future.
In January 1944,The Honolulu Advertiser reported that she was "being urged" to run for Territorial Senate as a Republican Link Republican.
Aside from her victory, any information on her campaign worthy of inclusion? How many votes she got?
No need to repeatedly write "David Y. K. Akana" after his first mention in the body of the article.
Is it known where she was buried?

Indy beetle, thank you so much for pinking up this review!

I've removed the redlinks which might not be notable, and if I have time in the near future I'll work on making at least a stub for each of the remaining ones.
Linked Republican as suggested
Added some information about her campaign, including number of votes
Trimmed instances of "David Y. K. Akana" to "Senator Akana" after first mention in body
I haven't been able to find a source for where she was buried, but I'll keep trying!

Source spotchecks:

"Mrs. Thelma Akana Announces Her Candidacy For Senate From Oahu". Honolulu Star-Bulletin. - All good here
"Succeeds Husband". Hawaii Tribune-Herald. - Good
Hill, Virginia Bennett (November 8, 1944). "Two Oahu Senate Seats Go To GOP". Hawaii Tribune-Herald. - Good

The sources seem to check out and, noting my satisfaction with the responses posted above, I'm passing the article. Good work. -Indy beetle (talk) 02:54, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
