Option 5

 * Article title: ʻUlu maika, also known as olohu:
 * Article Evaluation
 * - Article does not exist
 * - A traditional sport that takes in the Hawaiian equivalent of olympics and does not have an article
 * - Only mentioned in passing in one sentence in the traditional Hawaiian games page and part of the amazing race season 20 as one of the challenges
 * - I feel this topic is interesting and important, as ʻUlu maika stones are traditionally found by archaeologists and are present in museums, and the sport has a lot of coverage by said museums and other books:
