It's new!

Guidelines for writing articles

Please feel free to announce your new Singapore-related articles below (newer articles at the top). Before doing so, please check that they comply with the following guidelines:

  • The articles must be notable.
  • Statements and facts must be backed up by adequate citations and references.
  • Where possible, please create articles that are at least "Start class". More than half of Singapore-related articles are currently Stub class (click here to see the detailed statistics), and many of these are created and then neglected. Instead of creating a new stub article, why not consider expanding an existing one?
  • Do not create a list if more than half of the articles that will be in the list have not been written yet.

Sticking to these guidelines will help to minimise the unnecessary listing of articles for deletion by other editors, and the subsequent hassle involved in fellow SGpedians appealing for their retention (click here for recent examples). We have already lost a fair number of articles which could have been expanded, and thus wasted the efforts of the editors who created them. If you need help or would like to seek the collaboration of experienced editors on an article, do post a message at our talk page.

To help fight vandalism of articles, please add articles that you are interested in to your watchlist and revert any vandalism that occurs.


DYK suggestions

If you create or spot any new articles that have an interesting or unusual fact in them, consider suggesting them for the "Did you know?" box on the Wikipedia main page. Only nominations made within five days from the creation or fivefold expansion of the article will be considered for DYK. Therefore, if you are creating a new article or working on a major expansion of an existing one and think you will take more than five days to finish, consider doing so in a personal sandbox first and moving the article into the main namespace when you are done. You can make personal sandboxes by creating pages called "User:USERNAME/sandbox", "User:USERNAME/sandbox1", and so on, where "USERNAME" is your user name. An easy way of transferring the contents of your personal sandbox to an article is to replace the contents of the article with "{{subst:User:USERNAME/sandbox}}".

Also consider adding such articles to the Singapore Portal.

New articles identified by bot

Recently created articles that may be within the scope of the project which are automatically picked up by our bot are listed here. Do help to improve relevant articles, and make nominations for the "Did you know?" section on Wikipedia's main page.

This list was generated from these rules. Questions and feedback are always welcome! The search is being run daily with the most recent ~14 days of results. Note: Some articles may not be relevant to this project.

SGpedian sysops

No, some Wikipedians are not more equal than others. Friendly SGpedian sysops with mop and bucket are at your service to render assistance to any issue you may have from time to time. Feel free to drop a note on any of their talkpages if you need their attention.

Article improvement

This part of the notice board facilitates collaboration between SGpedians to improve Singapore-related articles. There are many issues that may be common knowledge in Singapore, but are not well known outside Singapore and thus not mentioned in Wikipedia. SGpedians are encouraged to work alone or together to identify such issues, and to create and improve articles on them to counter systemic bias.

For information on and to take part in general collaboration projects, see the following:

Good Article drive

The aim of the Good Article (GA) drive project is to increase the number of Singapore-related GA articles in Wikipedia. To take part, simply nominate an article with GA potential below and "adopt" it, or another article. Then work alone or with other SGpedians to bring the articles you have adopted up to GA status. Articles undergoing a GA drive are not owned by those participating in the collaboration; even if you are not a collaborator, do be bold and improve articles undergoing a GA drive.

Articles don't write themselves. So write them!

Nominated articles

Please format nominations as follows:

* '''[[ARTICLE NAME]]''' (Notes such as "failed GA review on 4 July 2007" or a link to an ongoing peer review, if applicable): list issues that need to be addressed, such as "needs copy-editing" or "lack of references in History section"
*:adopted by list SGpedians who have adopted the article by typing [[User:USERNAME|USERNAME]]

To adopt an article, simply add your user name to its "adopted by" list and start improving it! Once work on an article is complete and it has been nominated for GA review, it should be moved to the "Articles undergoing GA review" list below.

  • Bonny Hicks (failed GAC on 28 March 2007): The article needs a copy-edit. The GA reviewer also commented that the article needs more context (he also asked for more references, but they appear to have been provided).
    Not adopted yet (CyberAnth is primary contributor).
  • Chua Ek Kay (appeared in DYK on 18 February 2008): The article would benefit from better organisation. Its lead section needs to be rewritten. There are NPOV and prose issues to deal with. Finally, the Early life section and first two paragraphs of the Artistic career section are unreferenced.
    Not adopted yet (Marcuslim is primary contributor)
  • Fann Wong (former GA, delisted on 15 January 2008, see reviewer's comments): The "Awards" section is unreferenced, the "Works" section is empty, the lead section should be polished and several short paragraphs should be expanded (or merged into other paragraphs).
    Not adopted yet.
  • I Not Stupid Too (currently on peer review): The article could do with a copyedit, wikification and MOS check.
    Adopted by Hildanknight.
  • Jin Long Si Temple (appeared in DYK on 28 October 2007): The prose needs to be copy-edited and checked for NPOV violations. In addition, the lead section should not be one long paragraph.
    Not adopted yet (Aldwinteo is primary contributor)
  • Marine Parade Community Building (appeared in DYK on 29 September 2007): The lead section is too short and should be expanded. Several minor prose issues also should be dealt with.
    Adopted by Aranho. (Sengkang, the primary contributor, left Wikipedia)
  • Pinnacle@Duxton: First time doing this. Copy-edited, added many details and several new sections. Any help would be most welcome.
    Not adopted yet (Baby Mongster is primary contributor).
  • Singapore (former GA, delisted on 16 July 2007, see GA/R and recent peer review): The article needs more references and a copy-edit. It also has many MoS violations that need to be dealt with.
    Not adopted yet.
  • Singapore 2006 (failed GAC on 18 January 2007): The article offers weak coverage of several areas (such as logistics) and needs a copy-edit. Several short sections are problematic.
    Not adopted yet (Huaiwei has expressed interest).
  • Singapore Airlines (failed GAC on 7 October 2006): The article has a long history of disputes, which must be resolved for it to be stable. Some sections are poorly referenced. Short paragraphs should be merged or expanded.
    Not adopted yet.
  • Trim and Fit (appeared in DYK on 28 February 2008): The article needs a copyedit and could also do with an NPOV check. Information in the "Overview" section should be integrated into the lead section. More information would obviously be welcome.
    Not adopted yet. (Mailer diablo is primary contributor)
  • Wang Yuegu (appeared in DYK on 24 August 2008): The "Early life" section is too short and the article lacks a "Personal life" section.
    Not adopted yet (Jacklee is primary contributor)
