That book is from 2013, and copyright violation was introduced in a series of edits in October 2006. It looks like there was a previous publisher of the book as this edit provides a reference to "*Victor R Savage, Brenda S A Yeoh (2004), Toponymics - A Study of Singapore Street Names, Eastern University Press, ISBN 981-210-364-3". Just wanted to add this to the notes to forestall any question of the edits being possibly a reverse copyvio. -- Whpq (talk) 21:43, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
