  • "as Middlesex and Lambton County Road 22" mildly confusing, do you mean "as Middlesex County Road 22 and Lambton County Road 22"?
  • "It initially passed" are back to talking about Highway 22?
  • "Today, most of the" we tend to avoid that sort of lingo, what about "as of 2021"?
  • "Outside of London" of not required.
  • "it passes through" -> "through which it passes"
  • "Egremont road (see #History). " not needed.
  • "the survey grid turning approximately 45° relative to Adelaide Metcalfe" sorry, I'm being dense but I don't follow this at all.
  • "only a few years before" not really encyclopedic tone.
  • " of Lake Erie" could link.
  • Lake Huron - likewise.
  • "to compliment the" complement.
  • 'work to be done gradually' completed instead of "done". Or "carried out"...
  • "22.75 km (14 mi)" strange 2 dp to 0 dp conversion.
  • "5.5 kilometres (3.4 mi) section" adj=on here.
  • Suddenly you go back to expanding km to kilometre?
  • ISBNs should be consistently formatted.

That's all I have, so on hold for now. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 07:11, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • All but two issues are fixed. So, for the ISBNs, I've always followed what is shown in the source I used; what is the proper format for the 10 and 13 digit ones? As for the "the survey grid turning approximately 45°" – I knew this would come up and I was awaiting it for some advice from someone who isn't as entwined in the topic. So if you take a look on a satellite image, the farms west of Hickory Corner (the boundary between Adelaide Metcalfe and Middlesex Centre) are squared with #22; to the east they (and the crossroads) are skewed at a 45° angle. This is a result of the way the c. 1830 survey baselines for the townships were aligned (to either the St. Clair or Thames Rivers). Can you think of a way to describe that? Concession road explains the idea of surveys in Ontario a bit, so I've linked "survey grid" in the article to it. - Floydian τ ¢ 23:56, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
