Hello. I will review this. — The Most Comfortable Chair 03:55, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@The Most Comfortable Chair Heyoo, are you gonna review this? ZKang123 (talk) 04:07, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies for the delay; I will complete the review by the end of this week. — The Most Comfortable Chair 06:31, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@The Most Comfortable Chair: have you gotten too comfortable in your chair? I can take over the review if you'd like :) Kingoflettuce (talk) 23:03, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm assuming Mr Chair will come back to this but just a quick comment from me: you'd probably want to change some of the refs to show that the journo's last name is Toh, not Wei Kingoflettuce (talk) 23:06, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Life has been a little too much lately, but I sure do have my comfortable chair at the end of the day. You made my day with that, Kingoflettuce. :) — The Most Comfortable Chair 08:39, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

[edit]
  • "Near the station Tagore MRT Station." — I am not sure I understand what this means.
    • Must be some foamer or vandal... Removed it since it's not yet in official records.

History

[edit]
  • It is somewhat moot to have "Thomson–East Coast line" as a sub-section header since it encompasses all of "History".
  • Is it possible to link "bored tunnel" to an relevant article?
  • "Cranes and heavy machinery have to be carefully installed," → "Cranes and heavy machinery had to be carefully installed,"
  • "The government agency gave regular updates on the construction works to residents and shopkeepers in the area." — I am not sure if this fact needs to be included in the article. Since that much would be expected with pretty much any major project, I see little encyclopediac value to it.

Station details

[edit]
  • The header could just be "Details" since mentioning "Station" is a little redundant.
  • "Thomson–East Coast line (TEL)" → "TEL" — Since it has already been abbreviated in the preceding section.
  • "Being part of the TEL, the station is operated by SMRT Trains. Train frequencies on the TEL range from 5 to 9 minutes." — I would suggest you merge these sentence to avoid too many short sentences in one paragraph.
  • Since it is not mentioned elsewhere in the prose, it should be mentioned that Springleaf MRT station is a "Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station" in this section.

References

[edit]
  • Use "publisher" instead of "website" for "LTA" and "Leighton Asia" throughout.
  • Reference 1 and 2 — Should only have "Public Poll for Thomson Line Station Names" and "Thomson Line Station Names Finalised" in the title, respectively.
  • About the point Kingoflettuce noticed — I am unfamiliar with naming traditions from this region. I found this article, which suggests his last name to be "Ting Wei" instead of "Wei". Thoughts, ZKang123?

That should do it. Thank you for your patience and I regret the delay. The article is concise and well-written. It should pass — The Most Comfortable Chair 08:39, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
