Happy to review the article. AM

Lead section/infobox

 * Unlink Singapore (MOS:OL).
 * The citation in this section is not needed, as the information is not controversial.
 * The coordinates in the infobox can imo be removed, as they are already inline at the top of the article.
 * Uninvolved comment, but if the coords were moved out of the infobox, then the map at the bottom of the infobox may no longer work. I would recommend combining the coord templates if that is the issue. Epicgenius (talk) 15:26, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that, see my edit for this article, which shows it can work. please discuss my edit if you wish. Amitchell125 (talk) 17:24, 11 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Apart from the first one, the references in the infobox are not needed, as the information is not controversial.
 * Not all the information in the infobox is included in the main text of the article, for instance, the station’s previous names.
 * Apologies, you need to check the lead section as well. Amitchell125 (talk) 13:23, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Rectified. ZKang123 (talk) 12:01, 16 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Link embassies (Diplomatic mission); Napier Road (in the infobox). As for the previous names, I find it difficult to include in the body, because the name is still retained and not very significant tbh. But I opt to keep it in the infobox and have it cited accordingly. Had rectified the other comments ZKang123 (talk) 02:09, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

History

 * Presumably, Sinohydro Corporation Ltd. Can be linked to Sinohydro.
 * This small article has 7 images, which is excessive. As the construction site is not discussed in the text, I would remove the three images of the station’s construction, as being purely decorative. They are all to be found in the Common category for the topic.
 * It also appears to cause MOS:SANDWICH issues in Vector 2022. : 3 F4U (they/it) 01:02, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The station – this is the beginning of the text proper, and so the full name of the station should be given here.
 * Thomson line – consider amending this to ‘the then-planned Thomson Line’ (or something similar), so that readers are immediately aware that the line is no longer known by that name.
 * Link Transport Minister (Ministry of Transport (Singapore)); S. Iswaran.
 * With restrictions imposed – the nature of these restrictions may not be apparent to all readers, and so should be explained here.
 * Pushed – ‘extended’.
 * Addressed above comments ZKang123 (talk) 02:11, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Description

 * Link gingers; orchids; legumes; botanical artists (Botanical illustration).
 * I wouldn’t use the exit images (see my comment about images above).
 * Train frequencies on the TEL range from 5 to 6 minutes This sentence could be amended to improve the prose, e.g. to something like ‘Trains on the TEL run approximately every 5 minutes’.
 * The curvilinear ceiling at the columnless upper platform is inspired by a folding leaf - ‘The curved ceiling above the column-less upper platform was inspired by a folding leaf’?
 * is fully designed – ‘was fully designed’.
 * depicts a tapestry of various species of plants - tapestry is incorrect, I would consider simplifying to something like ‘depicts various species of plants’.
 * the de Alwis brothers – name William de Alwis (linked) and his brother George.

On hold
I'm putting the article on hold for a week until 19 July to allow time for the issues raised to be addressed. Regards, Amitchell125 (talk) 14:06, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Already addressed the above comments ZKang123 (talk) 02:13, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
 * A couple of points that are still outstanding (marked with ❌), otherwise we are sorted. Amitchell125 (talk) 14:02, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
