Na Lani ʻEhā

(
)
  • ... that the Hawaiian Music Hall of Fame honors Na Lani ʻEhā as progenitors of 19th and 20th century Hawaiian music? Source: 2 "Were it not for the dynamic cultural leadership and personal contributions of Na Lani ʻEhā (The Royal Four) in encouraging and supporting aspiring composers, singers, instrumentalists, dancers, chanters and poets, Hawai'i's significant musical contributions to the world might never have happened."

  • Interesting hook, but the word "progenitor" never appears in the source. I'll review the rest of the article once this is addressed. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Thanks ♥) 20:22, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
  • Generally speaking, we try to avoid plagiarism, and be a little original in our phrasing. From the online Dictionary.com, 1 one of the many varied definitions of "progenitor" is "a person or thing that first indicates a direction, originates something, or serves as a model; predecessor; precursor:" I believe that is what the source is saying in different words, "the dynamic cultural leadership and personal contributions." who, as role models, saved Hawaiian music so it could flourish as it does today. — Maile (talk) 20:47, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
  • Interesting hook, long enough, new enough, well cited, neutral, no copyvio issues, QPQ done... good to go. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Thanks ♥) 21:52, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but I don't see 19th and 20th century Hawaiian music explicitly referenced in the description of the Hall of Fame, just Hawaiian music. Yoninah (talk) 19:13, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
  • How about just a simple fix? Stating exactly what is stated in the article. See ALT hook. KAVEBEAR (talk) 06:57, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
  • Great idea! Restoring tick for ALT1 per Nice4What's review. Yoninah (talk) 10:47, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
