- File review
- File:EW27 Boon Lay MRT station exterior 20210120 171612.jpg
(but consider adding {{FoP-Singapore}} at Commons) - File:Boon Lay MRT 2.JPG (same)
- File:JS8 Boon Lay MRT construction site 18 May 2024.jpg (same)
- Lead and infobox
- Seems fine
- History
- "The station, then named Jurong West, was included in the early plans of the MRT network in May 1982" The reference is a dead link
- "...and would have been built as part of Phase II of the initial MRT system." Both references talk about Boon Lay, not Jurong West. Was the station renamed that early on? Was the Jurong West name ever considered seriously?
- References 4, 5 and 6 are dead links, too. But I'm not sure if that's really so, or if the page itself is denying me access. Just in case, re-check all references from NewspaperSG
- S$ and US$ may sound confusing for newcomers. It may be better to say "Singapore dollar" and "United States dollar".
- Reference 17 is a press release from the government of Singapore, and thus a primary source. We don't really need it, as we have 2 other references for the same sentences.
- For me, there's nothing wrong with the added government press release reference. I like to use a combination of primary and secondary sources to support claims.--13:08, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Boon Lay Extension
- Seems fine
- Jurong Region line
- "The contract for the design and construction of Boon Lay JRL station and associated viaducts was awarded to..." I'm not sure if "awarded" is a neutral word. It implies that the recipient "deserves" what he got.
- Reference 32 mentions areas that may now be reached, and the number of commuters it expects to serve. Sounds like the article should mention this.
- Station details
- Seems fine
- Article is stable
- No problems noticed
I suspect that Newspaper SG treats me as a spam or bot for trying to access so many links in such a short time, so I would be willing to treat it as if it was an offline source and AGF on its contents. Just double-check the links, and confirm that there are no mistakes and that the references link to the pages they are meant to. Cambalachero (talk) 17:33, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Cambalachero: There was some 503 error or something yesterday... now the articles should be accessible. I didn't include web archive links because they just don't work; there's a copyright wall. I think S$ and US$ is intuitive, but I will wikilink them if they haven't been. Awarded is the typical term used. I usually leave more details about what the JRL serves on the line page than on the station page itself. I will address the other issues soon.--ZKang123 (talk) 07:41, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
