Hong Kong To-do: edit purge Clean up all MTR station pages. They are literally all over the place. 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] Aboard or not?

Removed from the article:

If the story that has for so long been told regarding the Minden and Scott Key is wrong then reference should be made to two letters from Keys daughter Elizabeth that state the opposite. The letters were written after Keys death and specifically mention the Minden as the ship her father was on. Key was with her until he died and staying at her home. There is much speculation and a lot of research that is current and shows otherwise. I ask you then why would Elizabeth mention the Minden? I suggest that despite what has been discovered that her statements in these letters is oral history and compelling evidence. One would think that the daughter of a then already famous man would have been told in detail the events of those days when the anthem was written. She states "the Minden was the ship my father was on". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Matthead (talk • contribs) 18:55, 17 December 2006 (UTC).
