Comments

Redirect King's Highway 81 here.
And why does the article start with the alt name, not the common name.
- As per the ON 95 review, this is the legal name and the intro is boilerplate. - Floydian ^τ _¢ 19:26, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"first designated in 1936 and 1937" how could it be "first designated" twice?
"County Road 81" if an alt name, bold, redirect from there to here?
"Wrightmans Corners.[4][5] From Wrightmans Corners,..." repetitive.
"provincial highways today" see WP:CURRENTLY.
- For the previous, I agree, but I'm not sure how to approach this. This isn't something bound to change ever, but could you suggest an alternative wording. - Floydian ^τ _¢ 19:26, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"final 5 kilometres" five.
"shoreline of Lake Huron.[1][4][5]" overlinked.
"by 1950.[10] By 1952" repetitive.
"in 1965.[13][14] In 1969" likewise.
"premier" link?

So I replied to individual points, save for the last, and fixed the rest. It's difficult to reword that properly while having two non-consecutive links. However, it's a pretty quick link off Mike Harris (Ontario's favourite punching bag). Again, if you have a suggestion I'm more than open to using it, not only on this article, but on the dozens that use the same wording for the mass highway transfers in 1997 and 98. - Floydian ^τ _¢ 19:26, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
