Unfortunately, I am going to have to quick fail this article as it evidently does not meet the WP:GAC.


 * For one, the lead does not provide a summary of the subject and ideally, should be much longer to draw the reader into reading the rest of the article.
 * While there is an appropriate section for references, some do not appear to pass WP:RS; like this and this.
 * No consistant ref date format: 2009-12-23, then October 27, 1997
 * No source for "Although there is some debate as to the precise year of his birth, Hawaiian legends claimed that a great king would one day unite the islands, and that the sign of his birth would be a comet." Therefore the heading 'Legendary birth' becomes questionable.
 * One dead link and a dab link
 * Prose is generally unorganised and poor; "Kamehameha's dreams included far more than the island of Hawaiiʻi", dreams of what?
 * Image description is far too long.
 * Honors could easily be expanded instead of the lazy bullet pointing.

Therefore, I would suggest you take this to WP:PR before deciding to renominate. This is an interesting article but needs more work and better sourcing. Lemonade51 (talk) 17:24, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
