• Hello, I have decided to take on this GAN review. This is my first GAN review. I cannot guarantee that this will be finished quickly, but it will be a priority for me on Wikipedia (so long as I have time for this website). starship.paint (talk / cont) 12:01, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
• @ZKang123: - please see my first round of comments below. starship.paint (talk / cont) 14:02, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

Lede

• Lede should mention that the station was announced in 1996. starship
  • Done.
• Consider adding the companies that constructed the station to the lede. starship
  • Truthfully I rather not, because unless the companies did something very outstanding or very bad with the project, they aren't worthy to be included.

Infobox

• Please, to the best of your ability, source everything in the infobox. starship

Images

• We have an image of the NEL platform but do not show File:Little India MRT Station DTL.jpg. Please find somewhere to insert this photo. starship
  • There's already a photo of the DTL platforms at the DTL artwork section Woven Field. Usually for the history I would prioritise having an image of the construction site.

History

• In preliminary studies for the North East line (NEL) in 1986, it was planned for the line to serve - who is "it"? Who planned? starship
  • I just reworded the sentence in another manner.
• The line was not considered financially viable in 1989 - considered by who? starship
  • Government of Singapore
• It was initially planned to close Buffalo Lane - when? starship
  • Source did not say.
• the Moulmein Tekka Residents' Committee raised concerns of road congestion - when? starship
  • Source did not say.
• a metal decking was constructed to keep the road open - when? starship
  • Source did not say.
• frontal segmental jacking method - is there any wikilink for this that can explain what this is? starship
  • No
• open-face tunnelling method - is there any wikilink for this that can explain what this is? starship
  • No
• required protection against settlement - any explanation, elaboration or wikilink for this? starship
  • Ground settlement
• manually mined - any explanation, elaboration or wikilink for this? starship
  • It's just... manually mined?
• Potential content to be added - any relation to the 2013 Little India riot? For example, this article says a rioter continued his streak of creating chaos and unrest by inciting others to help carry a small metal rack and ram it against a side wall of the Little India MRT station. starship
  • Probably too trivial to be included.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:17, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

Details

• Any way to include the nearby Farrer Park Field? starship
  • Well it's not stated in source. So no.
