• Lead is a little brief. Doing... Apparently someone has removed a part of the lead into the history, which caused the repated point (The idea of linking...), so I moved it back to the lead.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:09, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
  •  Done
• Where is street address referenced? Done
• Where is operated by SMRT referenced?  Done
• Indeed, there seems to be no explanation as to what SMRT means?

SMRT means 'Singapore Mass Rapid Transit' corporation, though it isn't stated explicitly elsewhere especially on its website. It seems the actual meaning has dropped out over time.--ZKang123 (talk) 03:14, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

Fair enough. I would just link it in the prose then. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:52, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

Anyway, is it necesary to add what it stands for? Possibly as a hatnote?-ZKang123 (talk) 08:47, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

• "an East-West direction" no need to capitalise E/W.  Fixed
• " Initially, after the station was first opened," no need for "initially".  Fixed
• "first opened" date?  Fixed
• Non-breaking space between time and am/pm.  Fixed
• "Sundays instead," no need for instead.  Fixed
• In both cases.  Fixed
• "from 7 – 9 mins" either "7 to 9 minutes" or "7–9 minutes".  Fixed
• What is TEL and when, roughly (or even exactly) is "the future"? Done
• You relink East West line after linking it in the lead but not the airport? Be consistent.  Fixed
• " This has proven effective given the short 20 kilometre distance" This was effective... and convert 20km to miles.  Fixed
• "Public buses instead link commuters" link or linked?  Fixed
• " it has provided a new transport option for the airport, benefitting both Singaporeans and tourists." sounds like a tourist brochure. Done
• " the Mass Rapid Transit system" MRT. Done
• " East West line at Tanah Merah," both overilnked. Done
• "The idea of extending the Mass Rapid Transit system to Changi Airport..." hang on, didn't you say that in the previous para? Done, moved to lead.--ZKang123 (talk) 02:09, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
• You link Terminal 3 after Terminal 2, but you'd already mentioned Terminal 3 above without linking it there...  Fixed
• " which requires" which would require?  Fixed
• "closing monitoring is needed" was? Check the tenses here, it feels like a lot of it is written as if it's still ongoing.  Fixed
• "station have actually put " station has put  Fixed
• "By then, there are about..."? what?  Fixed
• "Land Transport Authority announced an extension of the Thomson–East Coast line" both overlinked. Fixed
• "Thomson–East Coast line (TEL)" tell me what TEL means before you use it. Fixed
• "Station details and design" avoid sandwiching text between images. And also they both spill over into the refs section which compresses the references into two columns rather than four. Done
• "approximately 60m long by 20m wide by 36m high each" convert. Done

That's all I have on a rapid first pass. On hold. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 19:17, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

ZKang123 let me know when you've completed every point. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 08:15, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

I think every point has been covered. You can do a check.--ZKang123 (talk) 08:47, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man: I have addressed your final point on SMRT 1.02 editor (T/C) 09:43, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

Fine, I'm content with the changes, made a few minor tweaks, so I'm now promoting. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 10:26, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
