  • @KAVEBEAR: So far, so good. In ALT2, though, you spelled "assembly" wrong. Otherwise, it's interesting that someone was president during two kings' elections. A monarchy and presidency is not very common, so they're interesting. epicgenius - (talk) 17:12, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
  • This is all good, except: do you want readers to know that he is specifically the president of Hawaii's Legislative assembly during this time, or do you want to keep this as an element of surprise? epicgenius - (talk) 17:23, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
  • @Epicgenius: I wanted to keep it simply president for an element of surprise especially if the hook can be on the main page on Election Day. KAVEBEAR (talk) 18:01, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
  • Then the first hook (that Paul Nahaolelua (pictured) was president during the elections of two Kings of Hawaii) is good to go. It's the most interesting and concise. epicgenius - (talk) 18:19, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
