The result was merge‎ to Penang Transport Master Plan. Consensus is sourcing is insufficient for a standalone Star Mississippi 02:34, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a proposed line, it has not been given any projected completion time and is not a final concept, though for some reason the article is written like it is a completed line. No sourcing beyond the regional government has been shown to give any coverage to this concept. It is clearly too soon to have an article on this proposed line given the lack of coverage in secondary sources. A basic BEFORE search turned up no further coverage.

• Merge/redirect to Penang Transport Master Plan. I would expect the regional government to be the best source, but it should have something beyond the master plan. Reywas92^Talk 00:56, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Agree with merge, and the present tense in the article is certainly inappropriate. CMD (talk) 21:14, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Hold – I'm currently in the process of adding more content for the article. Hold it until the rewrite is complete. gavre (al. PenangLion) (talk) 08:26, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I have expanded and amended information related to the article. Please review it. gavre (al. PenangLion) (talk) 12:34, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  The line is scheduled for opening by 2045. This is not something we should be giving a dedicated article when it won't open for more than 20 years, per WP:CRYSTAL. This should be a paragraph within Penang Transport Master Plan. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 20:24, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  This is a project that was originally not part of the PTMP (until it was included in 2016), and was in development hell since the early-2000s. The dates of construction went from 2002, 2006, 2012 and was cancelled and revived repeatedly. It warrants an article of its own. gavre (al. PenangLion) (talk) 06:57, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
