WP:NOT NEWs. Local events, no evidence for connection between them, no reason to think historic impact; all transit systems has disruptions from day to day, but keeping a log of them is not appropriate for an encyclopedia article. DGG ( talk ) 23:44, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom. Utterly trivial. Even the title got disrputed (sic)! Clarityfiend (talk) 02:20, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Comment The article has been to correct the misspelling in the original title. Should the AFD be moved too? According to The New Paper, the disruptions this week are the worst in the history of the MRT, their CEO considered resigning and Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced a public investigation. Since the disruptions are a current event, we cannot assess historical impact yet, but there certainly is potential for historical impact. Hence I suggest closing this nomination as premature and give the article several months to develop, after which the article can be renominated if the press coverage quickly stops and there turns out to be no real historical impact. --J.L.W.S.

  • Delete WP:NOTNEWS. If kept it should be renamed to something like Singapore MRT disruptions, 2011 as it is not immediately clear what the subject of the article is. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:06, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete As above, WP:NOTNEWS. Information is already mention as a section in the rail operator's main article, does it really require a dedicated article? Granted the news did make it to a handful of international publications, though whether this news has staying power remains to be seen. Zhanzhao (talk) 15:26, 19 December 2011 (UTC)·
    • Comment I added the recent disruptions under each line's main article as they are significant enough. I was actually wondering should there be a separate article just on the North-South disruption as it is the worst disruption, spanning 2 major disruptions over 3 days, 1 planned delay in services which were further delayed (18 Dec). Also Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong interrupted his own holiday just to address this issue. --Xaiver0510 (talk) 06:18, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
