Beginning review. A short article, so shouldn't be too long. I also did some minor changes as I went along.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 02:21, 26 September 2025 (UTC)

@ZKang123: Thanks for taking this on, especially how it's been rotting in the GAN backlog for so long now. See my comments below. Icepinner 10:52, 26 September 2025 (UTC)

Lead:

• Truthfully for a short article, I don't think we need that much details, and some of them would be repeated in the body. I might recommend cutting the following sentences:
  • It is mostly wheelchair accessible and has bicycle facilities.
    • Brachy kind off told me to add that during Simei's GAN review, but I've removed it.
  • In 2018, it was the temporary terminus for train services during the early closures, late openings and full closures of ten stations in the eastern portion of the EWL due to maintenance. This is also rather trivial.
    • Didn't realise it was there. Removed it

History:

• 115m long Convert to feet too.
• and a 115m long[1] viaduct over the Kallang River as well as viaducts from the west side of the river to Paya Lebar station I think this part can be further shortened and simplified. Like just "viaducts running from Paya Lebar to Kallang, which included a 115m segment over the Kallang River."
  • Done
• Ref 13 needs a page. Check similarly for other news sources.
  • Done
• For LTA refs try to keep consistent: either all use |website=LTA or |publisher=Land Transport Authority
  • I mean, that isn't really required for GAN, but fixed it.
• Ref 20 needs a date
  • Done

Details:

• Like many stations on the initial MRT network, Aljunied is an elevated station and has an island platform. This is something I noticed for a few of your other articles, but I need to note that the feature of the island platform is common across the many stations of the initial MRT network, not that it's elevated. I mean, Toa Payoh, Dhoby Ghaut and Orchard are some of the first stations but they are underground. So reword to smth like: Aljunied is an elevated station and, like many stations on the initial MRT network, has an island platform configuration.
  • Done
• Except for Exit B I find this detail a little trivial.
  • Fair, reworded it.
• Refs 3 and 5 seems to have reference errors.
  • Done

That's all for me. Just take note of my other changes and feel free to edit if necessary.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 02:21, 26 September 2025 (UTC)
