Comments

• "underground Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) station on the Thomson–East Coast line (TEL)." where in the world?
• "construction of ... construction" repetitive.
• "TSL would merge with the ERL to form the TEL." normally need to give the full titles once again, the first time after the lead.
• "consists of 6 stations " six.
• "Noise barriers were installed to minimise noise pollution," just "Barriers were..." to avoid repeating "noise"
• "Reducing carbon emissions," In order to reduce carbon emissions during construction... (or does it continue to reduce carbon emissions now?)
• "11188" bit too precise and probably needs a comma after the first 11.
• "at Caldecott station on 30 " overlinked.
• LTA sources, are they "LTA" or "lta.gov.sg"?

• ... that Singapore's Upper Thomson MRT station is decorated with 88 long-tailed macaques? Source: [1]

• Reviewed: Ontario Highway 29

Improved to Good Article status by ZKang123 (talk). Self-nominated at 02:20, 13 October 2021 (UTC).

• Nominated within seven days after passing GA, sourced, neutral and without copyright issues. QPQ done. The hook is short and interesting, but possibly inaccurate. The sources say "88 animals - long-tailed macaques and a dog" and "88 artworks of animals - primarily long-tailed macaques", so it seems there are fewer than 88 macaques. Could this be clarified or reworded? I also added a link to crab-eating macaque; feel free to remove it if it's wrong or you don't like it. Ffranc (talk) 13:53, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

Hmm then what about:

• ALT1:... that Singapore's Upper Thomson MRT station is decorated with 88 animal figures, most of which are long-tailed macaques? another source
