I noticed this quickly on the GAN since I frequently travel from this station during my holidays here. Will be great to see this getting that circle, so I'll review it. GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

Infobox

• Caption reads "Exit A of Holland Village MRT station". Repetitive: consider changing it to "Exit A of the station". GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  •  Done
• Suggest changing map caption to "Location of the station within Singapore", or anything similar. GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  •  Done

History

• The lead and the body are like a mother and a fetus. They are connected, but not chained. Thus, all abbreviations explained in the lead must be re-explained back (i.e. "CCL" to "Circle line (CCL)). GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  •  Done
• I suggest linking Boring (earth) within "bored", as many may confuse it with boredom. GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  •  Done
• "The station opened on 8 October 2011 as part of the CCL extension to HarbourFront station." First, suggest linking HarbourFront MRT station. Second, that's a whole lot of refs there. GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  •  Done Removed one ref.
• Link Land Transport Authority? GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  •  Done

Station details

• Is this the Hugh Holland referred to? GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  •  Done
• In the subsection's case, it would be better to put the station names in quotations, as they are options in a poll. GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  •  Done
• Link Anglo-Chinese School (International) Singapore? GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  •  Done
• "The station serves the Circle line"-- if you apply my point on History, "Circle line" would just have to be abbreviated, as it's already explained. GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
  •  Done

I did one edit by myself per WP:SOFIXIT. In addition to the issues above, the references also aren't layouted well (i.e. the Website parameter doesn't display the correct name well). I am unable to do these per restricted time on WP, so if you can do it, please do so. GeraldWL 09:43, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

ZKang123, do you mind addressing my concerns here? GeraldWL 14:44, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Oh sorry, I didnt realise you made a review. I thought you only started reviewing. Sorry, was a bit busy. Yeah will look through.--ZKang123 (talk) 23:31, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

ZKang123, sorry for the long wait! Will elect this as GA-- can you add alt texts on the images as a finishing? GeraldWL 06:29, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

What are alt text? Arent captions enough?--ZKang123 (talk) 06:31, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

ZKang123, see WP:ALTTEXT. They're texts that screen readers use to help the blind understand what's conveyed. You don't need to get specific-- for example if there's a chocolate-color bottle, just write "A bottle of chocolate color at a table." GeraldWL 06:39, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Ok I added "|alt=refer to caption"--ZKang123 (talk) 06:45, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

ZKang123, putting this to GA now. See you've added some MRT articles as GAN; I'll probably review it when I have time. For now I'm focusing on updating Sriwijaya Air Flight 182. Hang in there! GeraldWL 06:49, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Thanks very much for this review!--ZKang123 (talk) 06:51, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
