Comments

"planning area" what's that?
"2008 Land Transport Master Plan" this sounds notable enough for an article.
"Platform level of Marina South Pier MRT station." fragment, no full stop required.
"The North South line, " put the abbreviation here.
And then use it!
"at a contract sum of" contract is repeated.
"the waler components" what's that?
"which crushed the worker" what, the dislodged water?
"then-Minister for Transport" I don't think "then-" is needed, it's pretty obvious that it's a contemporary discussion.
"North South line (NSL), " should have done this in the previous section.
"station showcases two " not encyclopedic tone.
"two parts[22] using" move that ref to the end of the sentence.
"20 different shades of colours" why not just "20 different colours"?
"Prvacki proceeded to hand-paint the various slabs and united them" -> "Prvacki hand-painted the various slabs and united them"
Plenty of spaced hyphens which should be en-dashes.

That's all I can see in a first read, on hold. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 12:19, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Fixed the above mentioned. Removed "planning area", the full stop and abbreviated accordingly (though I thought we are supposed to abbr every new section? I am not sure). Waler components changed to beam structures, added wikilink. And Lui Tuck Yew is no longer Minister, which is why the "then-". Replaced showcases with displays. Also changed the dashes.--ZKang123 (talk) 12:27, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  - Yes, I understood why "then-" but it was unnecessary, it was obvious it was about the minister at that time. Passing now. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 09:17, 17 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Overall, seems to check all the boxes required to be approved. Article was recently promoted to GA, it satisfies neutrality, length, plagiarism, and source criteria, hook seems okay and fairly interesting, and it appears that qpq is satisfied, as this is your first DYK submission. Overall, good to go. -JJonahJackalope (talk) 14:13, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
