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] Add what image?

Regarding the tag that an editor has requested an image to be added to this article: I can't find it on the Request page. Can anyone else find it?Herenthere 00:25, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

A picture of the train would be appropriate. Luke! 00:32, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Clarification needed

The article says:

It is divided into two segments: from the East Hall to the West Hall (and VV) and from Terminal 2 to the East Hall (one-way only).

but this begs more questions than it answers. For example:

  1. Are these two segments air-side (passed security) or ground-side?.
  2. Do passengers from Terminal 2 to the West Hall need to change from one segment to the other at the East Hall, or do the trains run through from one section to the other with passengers aboard.
  3. If Terminal 2 to East Hall is one-way, how do the trains get back to Terminal 2.

From Hong Kong International Airport

The Terminal 2 of the Hong Kong International Airport, together with the Skyplaza, opened on February 28, 2007 along with the opening of the Airport Station's Platform 3. It is used for departures of passengers only with no arrival facilities.

I think East Hall is the 'landside' but inside customs and immigration, and West Hall is the airside at the end of the big 'Y'. I think a diagram and photo are required in the article as well. Wongm (talk) 13:11, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
The APM is air-side for both terminals. -Herenthere (Talk) 22:25, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
