- What is "one at-grade roundabout"??
- Linked. According to dictionaries, this is an American term, but I have no idea what its UK equivalent. I've reworded a bit. — Amakuru (talk) 20:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- "giving it a reputation" what's it?
- The road. Clarified. — Amakuru (talk) 20:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- "A roads" link.
- Done. — Amakuru (talk) 20:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- Link Kenilworth.
- Done. — Amakuru (talk) 20:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- Barely any links in the second para of the lead and, unless I'm mistaken, absolutely ZERO in the third para. Do you hate Wikipedia?
- Yes, how did you guess? Some links added. Let me know if I've missed any obvious ones. — Amakuru (talk) 17:09, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- "both a Scalextric and " track?
- Done. — Amakuru (talk) 20:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- A429 is linked differently in lead and "infobox".
- Yeah, that was the {{jct}} template behaving oddly. Honestly, these things are more hassle than their worth sometimes, and the A429 was also coloured green when it should have been white for a non-primary route at that location. I've ditched those and just gone for a straight bulleted list instead. — Amakuru (talk) 20:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- "designation A4053 in" should that be A4053 as a redirect back here?
- REmoved. — Amakuru (talk) 17:09, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- "View of Junction 6 of the ring road" from the south, north,...?
- Done. — Amakuru (talk) 20:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- "only at grade junction" wouldn't proper English call that an "at-grade junction"?
- Done. — Amakuru (talk) 20:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- Link "roundabout".
- Done. — Amakuru (talk) 17:31, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- It's a real pity we don't have a decent drawing of the ring road with junctions. Could you put in a request at the map creation people? I think it would really embellish the description section instead of that very generic photo which is not particularly useful.
- Done. — Amakuru (talk) 17:31, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- "a turn off to stay on" you're honestly telling me there's no actual link for this right now?
- Done. — Amakuru (talk) 17:31, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- B4544 - any link for B roads?
- Done. — Amakuru (talk) 17:31, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

- "including the cathedral, were left" overlinked.
- Done. — Amakuru (talk) 20:26, 7 September 2021 (UTC)
- "the first bombing" was it singular or perhaps a first series of bombings?
- Any thoughts on this? The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 19:00, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- @The Rambling Man: done. Turns out it was a much simpler issuer than I thought at first, I've just changed it to "series of bombings" are you suggest. — Amakuru (talk) 18:31, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

Epic. But my first pass, so be wary. The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 15:15, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
- Amakuru there's one issue you perhaps didn't see? The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 21:48, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
- @The Rambling Man: hmm yes, I hadn't got around to checking that issue yet, sorry. Bit silly when it's the last one though, hopefully I'll get to it tomorrow, then you can do your second pass. Cheers — Amakuru (talk) 22:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
