Chinatown MRT station

 * Nominator(s): ZKang123 (talk) 02:47, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

Following the successful nomination of Dhoby Ghaut MRT station, using what I have learnt from that FAC review, I am now nominating this page for FA. This is about a Singapore MRT station in the Chinese ethnic enclave of Chinatown. It has a pretty interesting construction history, due to its location in a built-up area. And the artworks adorned in the station are rather vivid and suited for the station. ZKang123 (talk) 02:47, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Is the hatnote necessary? "MRT station" is quite clear in the title, and Chinatown, Singapore is linked in the second sentence.
 * Removed.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Link ethnic enclave
 * Done.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Might as well provide the DTL station opening date, since the NEL one is mentioned.
 * Done.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Arterial roads like New Bridge Road, Eu Tong Sen Street and connecting streets had to be rerouted – are connecting streets part of the arterial roads?
 * Added a comma so it becomes "Eu Tong Sen Street, and connecting streets". The connecting streets are the alleys and streets branching off the arterial roads.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * The rerouted roads and the construction barriers erected had impacted the foot traffic of the area – tense is off, no need "had". "impacted" is vague – I assume "reduced" works better?
 * Actually more of inconveniencing pedestrians who have to use longer alternative routes to get to their desired destinations around the construction site. Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * In addition, any businesses in the area were affected by the noise and construction dust. – remove "any". Are the sources more descriptive than just "affected"? Was it just patronage that took a hit?
 * Yes. Reduced. Also their goods and merchandise were dirtied by the dust.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * During the Lunar New Year in 2001, a temporary bridge was constructed – any reason in particular that this was done during CNY? Was it simply a coincidence, in which case it would be much clearer to state the month, or was it done in anticipation of increased foot traffic during CNY?
 * It isn't specified, but it's likely due to the increased foot traffic.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * The Land Transport Authority (LTA) engaged with the local community through press releases, discussions and community events – corporate puffery, can be removed.
 * Shortened to just "Through engagements with the local community, the Land Transport Authority...--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Would suggest "Following engagements" instead, to provide the logical flow that the measures were introduced as a result of the feedback given by the public. ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 09:37, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 10:55, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
 * The sentences Prior to the construction, the utilities at the site had to be diverted at a cost of S$7 million (US$4.7 million). This was to ensure that the utilities were not damaged during the station's construction. and To prevent disruption to the power and water supply and telecommunications during the manoeuvre, the utilities had to be cautiously protected or substituted. essentially state the same thing.
 * Reword and removed.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * the construction had resulted in a few cave-ins at the site – no need "had"
 * Done.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Did all the cave-ins occur in 1999? The text doesn't really make this clear.
 * Yes. Added "that year".--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * a two cm (0.79 in) depression – is this width or depth?
 * Depth. But already doesn't a depression imply it's a depth?--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Following the discovery of the cracks on the road – this is the first time cracks are mentioned? Are these linked to the depression found on 2 December, or found during the later inspection of pipes/cables under the road, or a separate discovery?
 * Reworded to have cracks mentioned earlier.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * cement mixture was pumped into the ground – think just "cement" will do
 * Done.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * when he announced → "where he announced" (date's already mentioned, plus emphasis should be on location since that's the significant bit)
 * Done.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * being constructed near the foundations of the State Courts and a HDB block – mentioned already, unnecessary
 * Removed. Done.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * disrupted lives is very vague.
 * Reword to say disrupted businesses.--ZKang123 (talk)
 * Check if you're spelling tunnelling with one or two Ls.
 * Double Ls. Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * In addition, this station site allows closer links to shopping centres and busy pedestrian areas – "closer" as compared to other undiscussed sites...? Just say "closely linked to shopping centres [etc.]" and remove "In addition".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Chinatown station is served by the North East (NEL) and Downtown (DTL) lines – no need to reintroduce abbreviations
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * The NEL station is a designated as Civil Defence (CD) shelter – something's wrong here
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 09:47, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * As Pagoda Street is on a low-lying area, vulnerable to flooding, → "As Pagoda Street is in a low-lying area vulnerable to flooding,"

 * "As the name suggests" - is this needed?
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 03:36, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * "...resulted in pedestrians have to take longer routes around..." - have is wrong tense, should be having
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 03:36, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
 * "tarnished" and "patronage" seem unnecessary complex, not a biggie tho
 * Hmm, "tarnished" seem more professional than 'dirtied'. --ZKang123 (talk) 03:36, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

All pictures are properly licensed, have descriptive alt text and adequately illustrate the article's subject and aspects related to it. I will analyze image placement later. MSG17 (talk) 15:21, 24 October 2021 (UTC)

Comments from Epicgenius
I will leave some comments later. – Epicgenius (talk) 14:05, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi Epicgenius, any idea as to when? Gog the Mild (talk) 12:57, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I forgot about this. I'll get to it today. – Epicgenius (talk) 13:44, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Lead:
 * Situated at the junction of Eu Tong Sen Street, New Bridge Road and Upper Cross Street, the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, Masjid Jamae (Chulia), Chinatown Point and People's Park Complex. - There is a dangling modifier. I would suggest changing the highlighted text to "the station is near several landmarks, including"
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * First announced as People's Park MRT station in March 1996, was one of the most challenging projects on the line. - A similar dangling modifier exists here. I would replace the entire second half of the sentence with something like "the North East line station was one of the most challenging projects undertaken during that line's construction".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * In March 2007, it was announced that would interchange with the Downtown line - Wouldn't the NEL, not the station itself, be the one interchanging with the DTL?
 * Fixed. Changed to the line interchanging with the DTL at this station.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * On a side note, shouldn't the NEL and DTL abbreviations appear in the lead? They're also mentioned in the body.
 * Hmm, initially because someone in that Dhoby Ghaut review suggested not to abbreviate the terms in the lead, but probably that was because the lead was rather short. Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * as part of the line's Stage 1 - I suggest "as part of Stage 1 of the line"
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * of the entrances has glass structures - If there are only two entrances, then you should say "Either" rather than "Each".
 * Actually six. But these two entrances are rather uniquely designed. Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * North East Line station:
 * Before the article even mentions that the NEL station contract was awarded, I would give a little background similar to the DBG article. Such as Plans were made in 1986 for a new line from Outram Park station via Chinatown to Punggol station in the northeast. These were finalised as the North East line (NEL) in January 1996. This is the penultimate station toward Outram Park, so this could be relevant here, unless I'm wrong and Chinatown was announced later.
 * Chinatown station was only announced much later among the 16 stations revealed in March 1996. So I don't find it relevant to mention the NEL plans prior to the station's announcement. It was not stated (explicitly) that the line would serve Chinatown when the line was being planned.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The station was first announced as People's Park station - The LTA announced it?
 * Actually Transport Minister Mah Bow Tan. Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The bus stops had to be shifted accordingly as well - I would strike the indicated portion of the sentence as it's redundant.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The rerouted roads and the construction barriers erected resulted in pedestrians having to take longer routes around the construction site to their desired destinations - I would rephrase this sentence, as "erected resulted" seems strange grammatically. For instance, "As a result of the rerouted roads and the construction barriers, pedestrians had to take longer routes around the construction site to their desired destinations."
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * During the Lunar New Year in 2001, a temporary bridge was constructed to connect the two sides of Pagoda Street so that the pedestrians could walk over the entrance work site - Was this specifically for the Lunar New Year or did it just happen coincidentally? Also, I would remove "that the" in "so that the pedestrians...." as it's also redundant.
 * More likely planned, but like what I said to a similar comment earlier, the source did not state that explicitly. Removed the redundant words.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Prior to the construction, the utilities at the site had to be diverted at a cost of S$7 million (US$7 million in 2020). This was to ensure that the utilities were not damaged during the station's construction - I suggest combining these sentences, e.g. "Prior to the works, the utilities at the site had to be diverted at a cost of S$7 million (US$7 million in 2020) so the utilities would not be damaged during the station's construction."
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The utilities had to be cautiously protected or substituted - I think "cautiously protected" is a bit redundant since one wouldn't say that someone was haphazardly protecting something.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * but this would risk damaging the canal, causing the site to flood - Was this discovered after the original plans?
 * More likely when exploring ways to deal with the canal, not when it was being constructed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Going with this alternative, became one of the largest in Singapore. - I think this is also a dangling modifier. Who went with this alternative, the LTA?
 * Yes the LTA.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:19, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * a bridge built in 1995 that connects New Bridge Road to Eu Tong Sen Street, as it is a social and cultural landmark. - Since Garden Bridge is previously mentioned, I would move this bit upward.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:54, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * the construction resulted in a few cave-ins at the site. - I suggest "there were a few cave-ins at the site during construction".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:54, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * resulting in its closure along with the neighbouring streets. - Similarly, I suggest "and it was closed along with neighbouring streets".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:54, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * building structures - Here I'd just say "buildings" or "structures" but not both. Unless you mean superstructures specifically?
 * Fixed by removing structures.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:54, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * two cm (0.79 in) - This should be adjective form, e.g. "two-centimetre"
 * Fixed. Removed abbr=on--ZKang123 (talk) 02:54, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * In light of the station's opening, the surrounding shopping complexes People's Park Complex and the OG Shopping Centre underwent renovations and redevelopment. - "In light of" could be replaced with a better phrase. If these renovations happened at the same time, you might say "In conjunction with the station's opening"; if they happened beforehand, "Prior to the station's opening"; and if they happened afterward, "Following the station's opening".
 * Fixed to "in conjunction".--ZKang123 (talk) 02:54, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * With the opening of the station on 20 June 2003 along with the other NEL stations, it was expected that the station would bring further development to the area with more investments and crowds. - "Stations" is excessively repeated here. In the DBG article, you say, "With the NEL commencing services on 20 June 2003". Given that Chinatown was part of that section, I think you can say something like "With the NEL commencing services on 20 June 2003, it was expected that the station would bring further development to the area with more investments and crowds."
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:54, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * More later. – Epicgenius (talk) 14:20, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Downtown line station and further plans (2007–2013):
 * In subsequent, the Chinatown branch was scrapped. - There should be a comma between the two highlighted words.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * was later revised to be the first stage of the Downtown line (DTL) in 2007 - I would remove "later" as a specific date is then mentioned in the sentence.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The 7 metres (23 ft) wide and 3.5 metres (11 ft) - If this is using Convert then the parameter on should be added, i.e. "7-metre-wide"
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * marked the beginning of the DTL construction with a ceremony at this station - I suggest flipping the two portions of this phrase, so "held a ceremony at this station to mark the beginning of the DTL's construction" (also, "DTL's" is possessive since it's referring to the DTL's construction).
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * then Minister of Transport - This should be "then-Minister of Transport" with a hyphen after "then".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * across the original river, which was drained and filled with soil - You mean the original riverbed?
 * Actually, after diverting the river to a temporary canal, they filled up part of the original river for removing the debris and allow safe tunneling underneath the river. see page 52 of source. Further clairified.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * the LTA had to maintain adequate hydraulic flows to keep the water clean - Since keeping the river free of pollution is already mentioned, this part of the sentence is unnecessary.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Station details:
 * The NEL site was chosen here - "Here" is unnecessary as it's already implied you're talking about this location.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The station serves public amenities include - "Include" should be "including".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The unusually long length is to allow the station to connect to various surrounding places of interest - "Long length" feels redundant, but just saying "length" may not be enough on the other hand. How about: "The station is unusually long, allowing connections to various surrounding places of interest".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * wheelchair accessible - A hyphen should be inserted here, i.e. "wheelchair-accessible"
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * causing the barrier to rise and act as a gate against the overflow - This is probably not what you mean, but if something acts as a gate, it would let things in. Rather, the barrier rises to prevent overflow.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * allow viewing - You can just say "allow views".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 00:34, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The Phoenix's-Eye Domain:
 * a public art showcase which integrates artworks into the MRT network. - I think this can be condensed to just "a showcase of public artwork on the MRT network" or something like that.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * "Couplet" could be linked.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The colourful mural - Any hints as to the general colour scheme (reds/yellows, blues/greens, grayscale, etc)?
 * Hmm not really in the sources.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * while the mural a visual realisation of the poem - Generally, "is to be" is only used for something that will happen in the future. Perhaps this should instead say "...while the mural is supposed to be a visual realisation of the poem".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Tan wished to capture the enduring and noble spirit of the ancestors, who help build modern day Singapore in the artwork - First, "modern-day" seems to be hyphenated. Second, if the artwork depicts the ancestors' spirits building Singapore, then the sentence should say something like "...who are depicted in the artwork as helping build modern-day Singapore".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * the phoenix is shown in full glory, - This should likely be "the phoenix is shown in its full glory".
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Drawing out the work by hand, Tan directly applied oil and acrylic paints onto the canvas - I would move "directly" to after "paints", i.e. "Tan applied oil and acrylic paints directly onto the canvas"
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Reproducing this colour treatment, however, was difficult during the mural's production in the United Kingdom. - The fact that the mural was fabricated in the UK should probably be mentioned earlier in the sentence, or even earlier in the section.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * seven colour process - "seven-colour" should be hyphenated.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The adjacent characters in each of the verses are matched in meaning. - I don't quite get what this means. Do you mean adjacent characters within the same verse (e.g. the first and second characters are matched in meaning) or do you mean the corresponding character position in either of the verses (e.g. the first character in both verses are matched to each other in meaning)?
 * Not sure. Need to check with the source.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The calligraphy was first written in ink on rice paper, - The comma after this is redundant.
 * Fixed.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:49, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * More later. – Epicgenius (talk) 14:51, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Flying Colours:
 * The DTL station features Flying Colours by Cheo Chai Hiang displayed across the DTL concourse level - This can be condensed into something like "The DTL concourse level features Flying Colours by Cheo Chai Hiang".
 * changes slightly - This should probably be "which changes slightly" as it follows a comma.
 * The tilt of the clothes lines - The angle of the clothes lines?
 * These are all the comments I have. Overall, I think this is pretty comprehensive. – Epicgenius (talk) 03:38, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Fixed above.-- ZKang123 (talk) 03:43, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Support - All of the concerns I've mentioned have been addressed. – Epicgenius (talk) 03:56, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

{{hidden/FC|headerstyle=background:powderblue;|contentstyle=border:1px powderblue solid; padding:10px;|header=Resolved comments from  Gerald WL  10:31, 24 November 2021 (UTC)|content======Lead and infobox=====
 * "The station features two artworks as part of the Art-in-Transit programme." I'd say "the MRT network's Art-in-Transit programme" since not everyone is familiar with the programme.
 * No infobox complaints.

History

 * "The station was first announced" --> "Chinatown station was first announced".
 * "the 16 other North East line"-- Link to the line article.
 * "in June 1997 at S$141.5 million (US$141 million in 2020)"-- link S$ and US$.
 * "Arterial roads like New Bridge Road, Eu Tong Sen Street, and connecting streets had to be rerouted"-- Link New Bridge Road, Eu Tong Sen Street.
 * At note A, link New Bridge Road.
 * At the Garden Bridge, I'd write "(pictured in 2018)" after "The Garden Bridge", since that photo wasn't taken when it was underpinned. Initially I was confused that the picture does not show any underpin etc.
 * "Several I-beams, a compressor and a small machine"-- Link I-beams.
 * Link People's Park Complex and Majestic Theatre, Singapore.
 * "On 26 April 2005, Today reported"-- link Today (Singapore newspaper).
 * "from Milennia station (now Promenade)." Since the link is the Promenade station, I think it would make more sense if you link it at the Promenade text instead of Milennia station.
 * Link Cross Street, Upper Cross Street and Gammon Construction.
 * Link Chinatown Point and Yue Hwa Building.

Station

 * Remove links to Chinatown Point, The Majestic, and People Park Complex, assuming my points 8 and 12 at the section above is done.

Artwork

 * "The station showcases two artworks as part of the MRT network's Art-in-Transit programme – a showcase of public artworks on the MRT network." I think this would be better placed on top of the Phoenix Eye's subheading as a standalone paragraph, since this sentence covers both artworks and not just one.
 * "regarded to be the five core values of man"-- Shouldn't the "of man" be part of the link too?
 * "victorious strong men in classical Greek style"-- link Classical Greece
 * Link Birmingham.
 * I think the Flying Colours image should be placed after the subheading, not before the subheading.

Overall I like the article, comprehensive yet to-your-face. I'd also like the Exit C and artworks images to be slightly larger as the images have lots of elements that makes it blurry when at a small size. If my comments are all resolved, I'll support this FAC.  Gerald WL  08:24, 24 November 2021 (UTC)}}

Source review by the guy above – passed

 * There's a bit of inconsistency with the author stuff here. For example, in Ref 4 it's "Leong Chan Teik" but in ref 42 it's "Sim, Royston"-- last name, then first. Per consistency with other articles the latter should be used throughout.
 * Ref 1, 2: Link to Singapore Land Authority
 * All SBST refs: Remove "– SBSTransit" in title and move "SBSTransit" to publisher, link
 * All Straits refs: Link The Straits Times, add Singapore Press Holdings to publisher
 * All LTA refs: Remove "LTA", add Land Transport Authority to publisher
 * All Business Times refs: Link Business Times (Singapore), remove the "The", add Singapore Press Holdings to publisher
 * All Today and Todayonline refs: Link Today (Singapore newspaper), add Mediacorp as publisher
 * Ref 30, 39, 41: remove website, add Ministry of Transport to publisher
 * Ref 46: remove website, add Arup Group to publisher
 * Ref 47: remove website, add Singapore Civil Defence Force to publisher
 * Bibliography 1: link Singapore Press Holdings to publisher
 * Biblio 2, 3: Link LTA

Overall all the sources are reliable and have all the parameters necessary, at least per that source rev essay. I also dislike the essay for being anti publishers for newspaper citations, since there are high quality FAs that have them. I also don't think we should take it seriously since it's an essay, but it is still a fine one. Jeez, why am I suddenly reviewing an essay bruh. Anyways, there's your review!

 * Thanks a lot for the source review! Addressed above points. ZKang123 (talk) 13:26, 24 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Neat! One last thing I just noticed before passing: at the quote at ref 24, are the "(joining)" and "(Chinatown)" not from the source and like an alteration to make the quote clearer? If so it should use square brackets "[joining]" and "[Chinatown]" per MOS:B&P: "Square brackets are used to indicate editorial replacements and insertions within quotations".
