"Singapore, officially the Republic of Singapore, is an island country and city-state in maritime Southeast Asia".
Singapore very much is in Maritime Southeast Asia, but if you click on the article Maritime Southeast Asia and check each country individually you'll see that Singapore is the only one that begins with "a country in Maritime Southeast Asia" and not just "a country in Southeast Asia" (with the exception of Indonesia, which is in Southeast Asia and Oceania). So I suggest to either 1. change all of the articles for the countries in Maritime Southeast Asia to include "maritime" or 2. (the more reasonable one, my actual edit request):
- Please change "city-state in maritime Southeast Asia" to "city-state in Southeast Asia".
If there's some politics to this I'm not aware of, my bad! But as far as I can tell this is just a case of being overly specific and not being consistent with other articles.
FAILING THE ABOVE - please only regard this if my suggested edit above is not done.
Please change "city-state in maritime Southeast Asia" to "city-state in Maritime Southeast Asia", because it's supposed to be capitalised (check the MSA article itself, where it always is capitalised).
Done Consistency seems ideal, but I, too, wanted to make sure there wasn't "some politics to this" so I searched through talk page archives as well as the good and featured article reviews but found no mention of the inclusion of "maritime" in the lead. It looks like it got added during a pretty significant overhaul of the article in 2020 by a no longer active editor, with the helpful edit summary of "maritime Southeast Asia". That edit also included "located within the Malay Archipelago" which has since been removed from the lead. Per your request and for the sake of consistency with other articles I've removed "maritime" and changed the link to Southeast Asia. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 20:04, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
