Talk:Singapore/North and West

Time formats

May I recommend using the same time formats for all the Singapore articles?

Our main Singapore city state article has Star status and uses the universally understood, unambiguous and usually shorter 24 hour time format (as does Singapore/East Coast and Singapore/Little India). --118.93nzp (talk) 02:00, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

A selection of Page Banner

Banner 1 (current)

Banner 2

Banner 3

North and west Singapore for a tourist equals to one of the zoos. So maybe banner 2 or 3 suits a bit better?--Renek78 (talk) 12:08, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

I prefer banner 3, but it's been a while since I've spent some time in the north and west (12 years now). Spent more time in the CBD in 2018, but with that said, I liked the botanic gardens and it was one of my highlights in the area (and it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site too). Would defer to @The dog2: as to which one is more representative. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 11:16, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Either 2 or 3, but not 1. Ikan Kekek (talk) 11:57, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

The Jurong Bird Park is going to close this year, so I pick 2. The dog2 (talk) 15:16, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

So if it's closing, then I too prefer 2. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 06:45, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

Banner 4 of Singapore Botanic Gardens

@Ikan Kekek, Renek78, The dog2: Added a banner of the Singapore Botanic Gardens, so it doesn't look too specific to the zoo. There seems to be a good range of the world heritage garden on Commons. --SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 22:24, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

I don't know if that will be the best representation of the region. The Botanic Gardens is great, but it's actually pretty close to Orchard Road, and in fact just down the street from the American embassy and the Australian High Commission. Perhaps a banner of the jungle or something would be better. Like from the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve for instance. Or perhaps mangroves from the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve could work for a banner.

If it's close to Orchard, then... I'll look for some banners of the nature reserves. SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 22:37, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
