Standard disclaimer that I'm including some stuff that isn't necessarily in the GA criteria since I know you want to go further with this article.
 * 1 dablink, 1 link that self-redirects.
 * Not sure if I deleted the self-redirect, but I can't find it... could you point it out for me? Dablink is fixed. -  Floydian  τ ¢  05:29, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * The tool says there is one, but I can't find it either... wouldn't worry about it. --Rschen7754 05:34, 2 December 2014 (UTC)


 * 3 dead links.
 * Fixed -  Floydian  τ ¢  02:33, 11 December 2014 (UTC)


 * Map could use a caption, and GIS sources.
 * Just gotta do these still -  Floydian  τ ¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Lead
 * distances calculated electronically. -> are calculated electronically
 * The lead is a bit long for the length of the article.
 * The central sections of Highway 407 opened 1997, between Highway 401 and Highway 404. -> opened in 1997 (if you're keeping the sentence at all)
 * Fixed the first bit and condensed the lede significantly -  Floydian  τ ¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Route description
 * six lane -> six-lane
 * Fixed -  Floydian  τ ¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * greenspace - ?
 * Undeveloped land "reserved" from urban development. I've linked the first instance of the term. -  Floydian  τ ¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * east of which subdivisions line the south side - what sort of subdivisions?
 * Specified residential subdivisions -  Floydian  τ ¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * the highway straightens parallel to Dundas Street - word missing
 * Hmmm... thought that read fine like that, but I've made it "...straightens and travels parallel..." -  Floydian  τ ¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Second paragraph: two consecutive sentences start with It
 * Fixed -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * four lane
 * Fixed -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * immerses - not sure if that's the right word
 * Switched to "enters the urban GTA" -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * is weaved - doesn't seem right
 * Any suggestions? I've switched it to the adverb "interwoven", which is the best/simplest way to describe the layout. -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Tolls
 * without the need for toll booth intermediaries - could be more clear
 * I just removed that part, kind of redundant to the second sentence preceding it. -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * against the requests of the province - the government? the people?
 * Specified. -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)


 * History
 * narrows into - merges into?
 * Markham road narrows from four lanes into the two-laned Main Street north of the 407... but since its being widened to four lanes, I just reworded this completely. -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  05:12, 29 November 2014 (UTC)

Should be a pass after these issues are resolved. --Rschen7754 06:16, 25 November 2014 (UTC)


 * I'm loading this up to work on offline. Hopefully I'll have the changes made within a few days, but I'm going to kindly request that a leeway of the usual seven day limit be made due to my limited internet access. -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  19:59, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Not a problem. --Rschen7754 00:21, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Just gotta deal with the deadlinks and map sources at this point. -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  05:15, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
 * It seems that somebody changed one of the citation templates so that chapter= somewhere is invalid... won't hold up the GA over this, but just FYI. --Rschen7754 05:34, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Looks like section is invalid in cite news. There's a post regarding this in the template talk page, so I'm not sure if there is any progress on this error. All the other issues raised have been dealt with. Sorry for the delays :) Cheers,  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  02:33, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
