Buangkok MRT station (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator(s): ZKang123 (talk) 04:07, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is my second nomination of the article, about an MRT station which remained closed even when the line opened. After some lobbying by residents, MPs and grassroots leaders to open the station, including a rare form of public protest by putting up "white elephant" cardboard cutouts, the station was eventually opened. Previously there were concerns raised about the wording and phrases of certain portions of the article, and I had put it up to the GOCE for a copyedit. As the semester ends, I also have more time to work on any potential issues that might arises during the FAC review process. ZKang123 (talk) 04:07, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
