Did you know? If you fancy doing so, I always have plenty of GA nominees to review. Just look for the all-uppercase titles in the Television section. Reviews always appreciated.

Sourcing and spot checks

• 6: Ministry of Transport announcement of station opening. Mark as dead so a click steers to the archive URL. Y
• 8: Opening ceremony speech on 7 October. Tomorrow morning, this station will open with eleven others along the existing Circle Line, from Marymount to Harbourfront. Y
• 11: DTL2 station and alignment announcement includes Botanic Gardens listed as the only CCL interchange. Y
• 22: Cheong has a page on features of the Circle Line stations including "wide faregates make moving a wheelchair or big bags through a cinch." this is a system feature now. Y
• 28: The station design was inspired by natural flora and fauna. The material palette was carefully chosen and touches of nature were woven into the interiors. Y

Earwig only flags work and organization names and "quotes by poets, artists and nature lovers", which is pretty hard to reword.
