The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: procedural close as moved. Pages were moved after the RM was started but since there is consensus, there is no need to revert. (closed by non-admin page mover) — Za wl 12:37, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

– The official name of these lines lack the 'Line', as can be seen in the following links [[1]] and [[2]]. The first is from the Land Transport Authority in Singapore, while the second is from SBS Transit, the operator of the Sengkang and Punggol lines. Thus, as per MOS:CAPS and WP:NCCAPS, the names should be changed. R22-3877 (talk) 14:17, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Did you know? If you fancy doing so, I always have plenty of GA nominees to review. Just look for the all-uppercase titles in the Television section. Reviews always appreciated.

History

6:45 am to 9:00 am and from 6.15 pm to 8.30 pm Inconsistent rendering of times. The latter pair should be switched to colons. (MOS:TIME)
On 16 February 2018, a dislodged power collector shoe caused a train to stall near Sengkang station. SBS Transit reported a "loud boom" was heard before the train stalled. Passengers disembarked from the faulty train before a rescue train hauled the train away. Services resumed at 1 pm. Try rewriting.

refurbish the Sengkang LRT platform Is this the platform at Sengkang station?

Infrastructure

Rubber-tired or rubber-tyred: which is correct in Singaporean English?
- Singapore English is based on British English
The Sengkang LRT line is fully automatic, and is equipped with Kyosan APM fixed block signalling system. Remove comma (CinS)
Are AVP and AVO the same as ATP and ATO?
- I think it's independent, will have to ask Zkang for clarification
  - Basically yes. The source uses AVP and AVO but I believe they refer to ATP and ATO respectively.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 06:28, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Space units (22 kV, not 22kV)
In 2004, the SKLRT has three TPSS, with one on standby to maintain operations during outages. Currently, five traction power substations (TPSS) are operational on the SKLRT. This number will increase to eight with the planned expansion of Sengkang Depot Try In 2004, the SKLRT had three traction power substations (TPSS), with one on standby to maintain operations during outages; it presently has five operational substations, which will increase to eight with the planned expansion of Sengkang Depot
one wider faregate for wheelchair users, and tactile flooring Remove comma (CinS)
The lack of doors have been criticised by a commuter as a "half-baked solution" and felt the barriers would instead restrict rescue efforts. Is this undue weight?
- Probably, I'll have to get their input on this
  - Removed instead.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 06:28, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
along on a specific loop You can have one of "along" or "on", but not both
- Made all changes except for the AVP/AVO and the undue weight one

Sourcing and spot checks

Reviewed: 6, 9, 16, 38, 43, 44, 82, 86, 87, 100, 109

6: A lot of the subdetails (fixed block ATC under ATO, with subsystems of ATP, ATS and CBI) aren't in the Kyosan corporate report. This may be excessive detail in the infobox.
- Can the Mitsubishi report be used for the infobox? It might be a bit excessive but I'll need to contact Zkang.

Everything else is fine. I don't have access to [109] though.

Updated URL access level

Images

All the images appear to be appropriately licensed. The two images by User:Sengkang might merit a licensing template switch to CC0 (since they appear to be their own work), but nothing that indicates that they can't be used. Encouragement: Alt text.

@Sammi Brie: made all the other changes. Will you still want access to ref 109 though? Here's the link.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 06:27, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
