Comments

Are each of those bold alternative names created as plausible redirects to this article?
"34.6-kilometre (21.5 mi)-long route" vs "33.8 km (21.0 mi)" (in the infobox)
"1934–June 1, 1970" spaced en-dash here.
"in 1934. In 1961" bit repetitive.
"January 1, 1998 and " comma after 1998.
"39 began began in" so good it began twice.
"Maidstone, Rochester and Sandwich East townships" none of these significant enough for articles?
"the Detroit–Windsor tunnel.[20]" overlinked.
"#2" do you mean literally "#2" or just "number 2"? Avoid using # to mean number per MOS.
"E.C. Row Avenue " spaced E. C.
"of Highway 401,Highway" something odd going on here.
"the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario. The" overlinked.
Refs 3, 19 and 23 have spaced hyphen, should be spaced en-dash.

Floydian are you going to address these comments? I normally allow seven days before failing. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 09:43, 6 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Yeah just been very busy the past two days. Should have everything addressed in a few hours. - Floydian ^τ _¢ 13:55, 6 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Alright... at this point I'm going to be smart and start taking notes on these little style fixes, which I should be applying through every article I take care of. Of note (let me know if I'm being too broad):

All bold terms should have redirects
Ensure length matches throughout the article (duh hehe... it happens, that's what peer review is for!)
Check for overlinking
No "#", that's for twits
Space between X. X. Blah for names (should it be a non-breaking space between the two initials?)
Almost nothing should have a hyphen; use an em-dash, and maybe once in a blue moon you'll be wrong

Anyways, that said, I've addressed all of your points in the article, except for the overlink of the Ministry of Transportation; the link in the opening sentence for the intersection list is a consistency thing in every highway article as far as I'm aware. Thank you for the review! - Floydian ^τ _¢ 16:52, 6 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

No worries, happy to promote now. I believe I've got another of yours on my to do list, so standby! 17:40, 6 May 2021 (UTC)
