I just wanted to point out that I think it's pretty silly that this article is at Lake Saint Clair, North America. This article should be at Lake Saint Clair or Lake St. Clair given that (a) this lake crosses an international border (making it a significant lake), (b) the other Lake Saint Clairs don't even have their own articles yet, (c) this lake is part of the Great Lakes system, which makes it significant (you wouldn't put Lake Geneva at Lake Geneva, Europe or Lake Geneva, France and Switzerland), even though there is a Lake Geneva, Wisconsin and a Lake Geneva, Florida).

I disagree. Lake Saint Clair requires a qualifier as it is not the only Lake Saint Clair in North America. It should be moved and renamed as Lake Saint Clair (Michigan-Ontario) similar to Pigeon River (Minnesota-Ontario) which also acts as the international border between Canada and the United States. That fact that it is part of the Great Lakes of North America is not a strong argument.-- BrentS 16:07, 4 Jan 2005 (UTC)
The Grosse Pointes are eastern suburbs of Detroit, not northern ones. They are due east of the city. Also, they cover only about a quarter of the Michigan shore of the lake--the rest lies in Macomb and St. Clair counties. Before I edited it, the article gave the impression that the entire Michigan side was closed off to the public, which is entirely false--there are multiple public beaches, most notably Metro Beach.
The reference given [1] maybe incorrect or at least have a typo and thereby be unrelieable. It says the lake is in Minnesota. It may need to be removed. -- MJCdetroit 03:10, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
References [2] and [3] given in the article require passworded accounts to look at them. I do not know all Wikipedia's rules, but it seems to me it ain't much of a reference if you can't look at it. Perhaps they should be updated or removed as references. I do not know how to do this.
Perhaps the discussion of St. Clair's status as a "Great Lake" should be moved into that article, where there is no mention of it? Since the lake (only) covers 1,270 sq km it doesn't fit the top twenty, but it is certainly a "great" lake if you have stood on the shore and looked at it.
One thing that tweaked my nose on the Great Lakes article is that some geologists have proposed calling Michigan and Huron one lake, "Lake Michigan-Huron," because they are "hydrologically connected."
I cannot find a definition for that mouthful of academic double-talk: I found thirty thousand different definitions for it on AltaVista alone for "hydrologically connected." Two massive lakes connected only by the small Straits of Mackinac don't seem to my uneducated little pinhead as "Hydrologically connected."
Moreover, -being- from Michigan, I have never heard anyone from Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, or Ontario refer to them as "Lake Michigan-Huron." Who gets to name features? Academics, or the people who live there?

"This lake is situated about 6.0 miles (9.7 km) northeast of Detroit, Michigan and Windsor, Ontario." Very peculiar. I never realized that Detroit and Windsor actually occupied the same location. 169.139.19.207 ( talk) 18:59, 22 December 2011 (UTC)

In the section "Naming," in the second sentence, "Mississauga" is linked to the City of Mississauga but should instead be linked to the page on the Mississauga First Nation found here: /info/en/?search=Mississaugas#:~:text=The%20name%20%22Mississauga%22%20comes%20from .
I came across this error in an altered state and can't fix it on my own. Thanks! Cheers.
