• I'll give this one a look over. Courcelles (talk) 21:04, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

• Can we find a way to rephrase "The state resurfaced VT 44 with more modern surfaces" to avoid "surface" twice in six words?
  • I removed the latter part and replaced "resurfaced" with "paved." Most of the road was treated gravel until the work in the 70s and 80s.  VC  00:45, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
• Does "Bennett's 1815 House" have a n article? Or are we just indirectly shilling for them here, just a little? Either way, we need a source for it.
  • I mentioned it because there was an image of it in the article. However, I only found one newspaper article about it, and the article does not even mention where it is located. So I removed the mention and the image.  VC  00:45, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
• Ref 1 should be split into three, with explicit notes as to which PDF is being used at any particular time.
  • Can you point out where the GA criteria require pointing to the specific document referenced for a specific piece of information?  VC  00:45, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
• "Don't need to cap "Interstate" when written out, do we?
  • Yes, we need to cap Interstate for two reasons: it is part of the name of the route, and Interstate refers to the Interstate Highway System. It would be lowercase if we were referring generically to routes that go through more than one state.  VC  00:45, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
• I might be very bad at chart reading, but how does the source prove that this was "in exchange for the town of Windsor taking over maintenance on the part of VT 44 east of VT 44A." I'm just not seeing the "in exchange" part demonstrated.
  • I removed the causation from that sentence.  VC  00:45, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
• Looks like a bridge was replaced for a couple million bucks recently, see Are there other sources and maintenance work that needs covering?
  • The bridge in question is not notable, so its replacing does not need to be mentioned.  VC  00:45, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
