 **Note**: In versions 2.0 and 2.1, the signature for the permission checks always included an optional `obj` parameter, like so: `.has_permission(self, request, view, obj=None)`.  The method would be called twice, first for the global permission checks, with no object supplied, and second for the object-level check when required.
 
-As of version 2.2 this signature has now been replaced with two separate method calls, which is more explict and obvious.  The old style signature continues to work, but it's use will result in a `PendingDeprecationWarning`, which is silent by default.  In 2.3 this will be escalated to a `DeprecationWarning`, and in 2.4 the old-style signature will be removed.

 # Custom Routers
 
-Implementing a custom router isn't something you'd need to do very often, but it can be useful if you have specific requirements about how the your URLs for your API are strutured.  Doing so allows you to encapsulate the URL structure in a reusable way that ensures you don't have to write your URL patterns explicitly for each new view.
+Implementing a custom router isn't something you'd need to do very often, but it can be useful if you have specific requirements about how the your URLs for your API are structured.  Doing so allows you to encapsulate the URL structure in a reusable way that ensures you don't have to write your URL patterns explicitly for each new view.
 
 The simplest way to implement a custom router is to subclass one of the existing router classes.  The `.routes` attribute is used to template the URL patterns that will be mapped to each viewset. The `.routes` attribute is a list of `Route` named tuples.
