@
Floydian:, only one thing to do here to reach GA, please see if you can find links for the maps that are not 404s, and then we should be all set. Thanks! —

Archive links added. Government decided to fix what wasn't broke, and broke things. Thanks for the review! - Floydianτ¢ 14:17, 16 June 2023 (UTC)reply

2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with
the layout style guideline.
Pass, no issues.
2b.
reliable sources are
cited inline. All content that
could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
The links to all of the maps seem to be dead, the domain may no longer exist. Swap for alternates if they exist, or remove hyperlinks.
Roadways articles shy towards OR (or at least, interpretation) more than many of our others, but we have established precedent/guidelines here and this article meets them, pass.
Pass, no issues. A map of the route would be nice to have but is not required, and I understand that it might be tough to find one that can be added to Wikipedia that highlights Ontario 53.
7. Overall assessment.

@
Ganesha811: you said that this article doesn't have th typical roadways OR but that doesn't appear accurate. Text like " the road travelled southeast through farmland as Oxford County Road 55 and crosses Highway 403" appears to be OR and is still in th article.

I see your perspective, but I would say that statements like that are in accordance with the
recently-affirmed changes to our OR policy regarding maps and charts. I know you participated extensively in that discussion, while I did not, so let me know if there is some interpretation I am reading incorrectly. —

This is the sort of thing that is not included in that, the map doesn't feature a layer for land use which would show farmland. If we had a map that showed land use and for example farming was purple, recreational was blue, conservation was red, etc that would be an acceptable use case under the recently affirmed language. Describing something which the map does not show is still OR. This sort of thing would have been allowed by Proposal 2b ("Satellite layers (i.e. on Google Maps) can be used to reference statements about elements such as
ground cover that can easily be verified.") but "There is consensus against both proposal 2a and 2b"

Gotcha, thanks for the clarification! You are right and I will be more careful with this for future reviews. For now, I'm removing the relevant sentences in the articles. Without them, it should still be fine against the GA criteria. —

Thanks for taking a minute to look at it. Agreed that without those bits its good to go GA wise.
