Open the AddressValidationMetadata wiki page linked in the issue and inspect the paragraph containing the data/HK and data/HK--en examples. Update both sub_keys values so they are enclosed in inline code formatting, then preview the wiki page and confirm the values no longer render as strikethrough text.

There will also be data for the French version, such as data/CA/NB--fr, where the value for the name is “Nouveau-Brunswick“ instead of ”New Brunswick“. Note however that the keys for a sub-region are language specific and it is not safe to assume that sub-region keys for an alternate language will be in the same order, or even the same script (see data/HK and data/HK--en, which have sub_keys values "九龍香港島新界" and “Hong Kong IslandKowloonNew Territories” respectively).

"九龍香港島新界" and “Hong Kong IslandKowloonNew Territories”

Should be:

"九龍~香港島~新界" and “Hong Kong Island~Kowloon~New Territories”
