Two model pages are Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. They each describe a feature special to the station, Station layout, exit, and connections, as well as neighbouring stations and the station "box". We will also need plenty of updated pictures (e.g. removing all KCR-related images except those on the KCR article). Check that all pages have basically the same language structure as Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. Links to location maps are good too. (Should also perform these checks on Chinese Wikipedia.) Clean-up pages that link with TVB, especially its series pages.

[edit] Comparison to Madonna

How come there is no discussion on this talk page, and no history for this page either?

I do not know who added the information comparing Madonna and Anita Mui under the Trivia section but per both of your suggestion, I deleted it since some part is covered under the music section. I am not trying to remove information that people added. I am doing this in good faith since Wikipedia guidelines discouraged Trivia section. (Luckpeace 19:48, 25 October 2007 (UTC))

Suggest deleting unsupported comments re Madonna in Trivia section, as the point is already made (albeit more briefly) in the section "Music career". Fayenatic london 14:46, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Having taken the liberty of doing what Fayenatic suggested, I don't think it's really relevant to the article to have a bits of information in the trivia section about her comparison to Madonna. As it is anyway, comparing her to Madonna is taking too much of a Western-centric viewpoint. Anita was one of the greatest stars in HK history, and I find it a little demeaning to having to keep comparing HK's stars to Western ones. However, on another level, I think we can draw a relationship between Madonna and Anita, as yes, they may both have a similar status in their respective countries, and yes, they are both popular, wealthy and etc; but since that's pretty much just a matter of opinion, I don't think we really need to put it in the article. It's just not objective nor factual. That's just my opinion though. With that being said, if you really do want to highlight their similarities and differences, do it properly, not like the half-hearted attempt that I cleaned up. Dagari 10:53, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] VERY valuable source.

This is pretty much the goldmine for researching this article. Pandacomics 05:15, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
