Please consider adding new material or moving this material to WikiTravel - Marshman 17:52, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

sounds like an advertisement

yeah sounds like an advertisement

yeah, someone fix this please

yeah, what the !@#$% is the point of this article? Maunakea 05:19, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Added Historical Info

Please critique, discuss if you feel the desire. Just making the article not sound like an advertisement. Maunakea 06:06, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Your contributions are much more encyclopedic than the POV-filled suggestions of sites to see (although some citations might be nice--I see you did ask for people to put "citation needed" marks, so I assume you have some sources; that's not a big concern of mine). Perhaps rather than deleting the article as I indicated I might suggest below, we could make the article more along the lines of what you've contributed--a history of the tourism and statistics.

I wonder, though, if that might not be better-placed in the main Hawai'i article--this may not warrant its own article.

In any case, thanks for your contributions--by saying the article was POV, etc., I was in no way referring to your contributions. cluth 19:51, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Not encyclopedic and POV: VfD?

As mentioned about, this article seems like it could (and should) be copied into Wikitravel and removed from here. It's not encyclopedic and filled with POV.

Only problem with copying to WT is the licensing (WP uses GFDL; WT uses CC). I haven't yet read WT's Hawai'i page, but I would suspect that most of what's here is there, too.

Perhaps the original contributors can go to WT and post their contributions there (thereby relicensing them in the CC license.

Any thoughts? I'm eternally busy, but if I manage to come back here and not find any discussion after several weeks or so, I may attempt to go through the history and contact the major contributors about relicensing their contributions in CC and/or posting them over on Wikitravel. I may then put up a Vote for Deletion here. (I've never done that before, so I'm not entirely sure how that process works, but I'll look into it.) cluth 19:44, 31 may 2020

Kauaʻi section disproportionately large

The Kauaʻi island section is over half of the article. Why is this section so huge, in comparison to the other islands, where there is more tourism? Vchao (talk) 16:12, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

that was my impression too. Can someone answer on that? 171.66.53.67 (talk) 19:40, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Not only is it large, it's written like an advertisement. Plenty of POV and weasel word problems abound. This section can do with a lot of clean up. Gh5046 (talk) 21:43, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

The entire article is laced with poor writing. I cleaned up this section a little bit. I don't have the gumption to attack the "activities" section, which can probably just be removed. Gh5046 (talk) 22:03, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

I removed the 'tour guide' type information from the article, which was about half of the article. My edit is here. gh5046 (talk) 00:26, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Tourists per year number is way off

In the second paragraph it is stated “In 2017 alone, according to state government data, there were over 887.6 million visitors to the Hawaiian Islands” that number is way off 2601:405:4401:82F0:30:96A5:10D9:E4E0 (talk) 00:43, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
