Fair use rationale for Image:NS logo.jpg

Image:NS logo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Heyyyyyyyyyyyy let me review. Give me a bit of time cos I will be working on other things, but there shouldn't be much issues beyond possibly some formatting and copyediting.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 04:32, 25 October 2025 (UTC)

Lead

• with expected completion by 2008. – with an expected completion date of 2008
  •  Done. Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
• Marymount along with other Stage 3 stations commenced operations on 28 May 2009. – Marymount commenced operations along with other Stage 3 stations on 28 May 2009.
  •  Done. Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)

History

• was under studies – was under study OR the Land Transport Authority (LTA) announced that studies are ongoing for the Outer Circle Line, a rail line connecting Paya Lebar, Serangoon, Bishan, and Buona Vista stations
  •  Done. Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
• I just felt the newslink links are unnecessary given they would just all direct to the same page.
  • True. Do you want me to remove the links? Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
    • Except for the first instance. Instead, maybe at the "via Newslink", link it to the url.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 05:50, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
• I recommend citing the following and adding the other proposed names under "previous names" in the infobox
  • Added the citation, but not the infobox. The "previous names" parameter is meant for names given to the station and does not include proposed names that were never applied to the station. Starship highlighted that in Marine Terrace. Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
    • Well, I'm not Starship, so just add in. Don't worry about it.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 05:50, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
• Decapitalise some of the news titles (e.g. Ref 26 "SUPER CONNECTED" could just be "Super Connected")
  •  Done. Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
• Construction for the Stage 3 stations was more than 90% completed by October, according to The Straits Times I believe this would be better attributed to whoever announced it than ST itself
  •  Done. Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
• No other issues for the history section. Did some minor edits myself

Details

• More precisely, SMRT Trains
  • I did that in the past, but Starship pointed out that the source says "SMRT Corporation". Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
    • I rather just go with SMRT Trains.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 05:50, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
• Check Nicoll Highway MRT station to add details on wheelchair accessibility
  • Ah, was not aware Cheong 2012 covered accessibility for CCL stations. Added it, but modified it slightly since Marymount is only wheelchair accessible at Exit A (per the map). Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
• is a 5 × 8.4 m piece convert
  •  Done. Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
• whilst drawing that piece whilst is a bit archaic. Would just go with "while"
  • Eh technically, it's archaic in American English, but in British English, it's still widely used. Either way, I think it's a bit janky in this context, so I removed it. Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
• and proposed an alternative artwork would add "initially"
  •  Done. Icepinner 05:09, 27 October 2025 (UTC)

That's all for me. I also did some source checks along the way and it looks all fine, though I would request checking refs 25 (Almenoar, Maria (26 January 2008). "More trains, shorter waits". The Straits Times. p. H10. Retrieved 24 October 2025 – via Newslink.) and 26 ("We're getting SUPER CONNECTED". The New Paper. 26 January 2008. pp. 16–17. Retrieved 24 October 2025 – via Newslink.). I think also there might be a typo for ref 28's second author's name.

Putting on hold while the above issues are addressed.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 02:34, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
