Speedy deletion nomination of Roxy Cinema
[edit]
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Roxy Cinema requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roxy Cinema. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 23:34, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
- I have contested against your speedy deletion nomination on Roxy Cinema's talk page. It was contested as the article in question pertains to a movie theatre named Roxy Cinema in Singapore, not the Roxy Cinema in Vermont as shown in your 'Article for deletion' link. Additionally, sources do exist for this Roxy Cinema, which are provided in my contestation against your request. I would appreciate it if the speedily delete template was removed from the article, thank you. Please '@' my username so that I get notified of your response (talk) 05:18, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
SMRT Comic Connect
[edit]Hey there. I might be off Wikipedia for a few days, but if you can, on my behalf, help update some of the station articles to include entries of SMRT Comic Connect? Except for Changi Airport; the pdf link hasn't been updated.--ZKang123 (talk)

Faber House explosions moved to draftspace
[edit]Thanks for your contributions to Faber House explosions. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Warm Regards, Miminity (talk) (contribs) 12:59, 15 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Miminity I understand. I received a message a couple of days that the article may not meet WP:EVENT since there was not much of a lasting impact. I did forgot to mention that it was one of Singapore's first experiences with terrorism. Other than that, I'm thinking about merging it into an article on Faber House and mention the explosions as one of its points... Imbluey2.

- @Tavantius: I am actually considered nominating it for DYK but I can't really think of any facts that would get people to click on the article. Maybe "did you know... that Singapore's 'first R-rated play' was technically two plays?" Imbluey2. Please ping me so that I get notified of your response 14:45, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- In my opinion, the part where the Public Entertainment Licensing Unit rated it R, making it Singapore's first film with that rating, could be the subject of the DYK. Tavantius (talk) 14:55, 1 November 2024 (UTC)

Also, the website is not dead when visiting it from Europe, so I'm not sure what's going on there. Any suggestions? D4n2016 (talk) 09:35, 5 July 2025 (UTC)
- @Icepinner D4n2016 (talk) 09:36, 5 July 2025 (UTC)
- Hello! I meant to say "Imagination Technologies" instead of "Imagine Technologies". As for the "dead" website, it gives an "Internal server error" page in Singapore at the very least (whether it extends to the entirety of Asia or Southeast Asia I'm not too sure). As it is a problem on Motorola's part, there's simply not much you can do. Keep the link though. Icepinner (formerly Imbluey2).

MRT and LRT stations etmology
[edit]Hi, I can understand removing the uncited parts of etymology sections of LRT stations, but why do you remove the cited portions too? Warpswitch (talk) 14:55, 3 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Warpswitch:
- For Teck Lee,
(Chinese: 林德利; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Lim Tek-lī), a former businessman with connections to the area
is not mentioned in the source; the source says he is a "prominent person" (in the meantime, I am trying to find sources on who Lim is). The station's etymology is also already mentioned in the details section. - For Yew Tee, it's similar; Savage 2013 does not mention the Gali Batu depot and does not include Yew Tee's Chinese name.
- More broadly, etymology sections for MRT stations aren't needed since it's only a minor part compared to their history, or architecture in rare cases. A passing mention of the station's name may be permissible in the details section, if there are reliable sources that make the connection on the station's name and etymology (example: a Straits Times article saying that Yew Tee is named after the Yew Tee village). Hope this helps. Icepinner 15:14, 3 October 2025 (UTC)
- Please direct me to where the stations etymology is mentioned on the teck lee lrt details section? Warpswitch (talk) 16:01, 3 October 2025 (UTC)
- Ah, it seems to be hidden by another user, but for a while, it was mentioned in the details section. Icepinner 23:13, 3 October 2025 (UTC)
- Ah, but as for etymology sections they should exist as stations also have official written chinese and official tamil names which should also be explained on top of the english name thus warranting etymology sections. Just because you have an opinion does not warrant for there to not be etymology sections. Warpswitch (talk) 08:48, 4 October 2025 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) Jumping in here... @Warpswitch, this is not the first editor who have opposed to you adding etymology sections to the MRT articles (See User_talk:Warpswitch#August_2025). I will proffer my opinions also why an etymology does not make sense:
- The MRT stations are mostly named after the locations they are situated in or after notable persons. For those named after locations, it is simple enough to state as so, and linked to the article as the place article would have etymology section. For those named after persons, similarly linked to the person's article if available should suffice.
- It does not make sense to refer and use the PoJ romanisation when the PoJ romanisation does not match with the eventual common romanisation of the person/place name in Hokkien, Lim Tek-lī vs Lim Teck Lee. The leap from the former to the latter is not documented anywhere on wiki (I think, after looking here Hokkien#Latin_script or Category:Romanization of Hokkien).
- It makes sense to have just the following if the connection to the area isn't apparent. i.e. "Teck Lee MRT station is named after Lim Teck Lee who was businessman with connections to the area during colonial Singapore period".
- – robertsky (talk) 09:40, 4 October 2025 (UTC)
- your first point does make sense in some contexts but there are quite a few instances of stations being named after stuff without any mention on wikipedia at all. For example Canberra MRT station, even though the english name is obviously named after the australian city which ios derived from Ngunnawal Kanbarra, the etymology of the official chinese name 坎贝拉 being a phonetic transcription into mandarin used in singapore is not mentioned anywhere on wikipedia. The origin on the official chinese and tamil names of stations are just as important as the english names, to deny this is to deny the multi-lingual nature of singapore. But that does not matter since there should not be etymology sections according to you and User:Icepinner and you guys are quite powerful here.
