The Bayshore Route at night

New enough GA. The hook source is different from that provided in the article itself, which is a Japanese-language offline source, so I will AGF. The article presents no textual issues. @Mccunicano: Tick coming when a QPQ is supplied. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 18:51, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Route map highlighting[edit]

In the map in this article's infobox, I only see a short section of the Bayshore Route highlighted in red (immediately north of the Tokyo Port Tunnel), rather than the entire 62-km length described in the article body. I see in the article's GA review that Downsize43 noticed that the route wasn't highlighted in mobile view - I'm using desktop view on Windows, and see the incomplete highlighting on Firefox and Chrome. I did notice that the {{Highway system OSM map}} template is using d:Q1369525, the Shuto Expressway, as its highway_system_qid rather than d:Q4874809, but using the latter in the template seems (from the edit preview) to show a map centered at 0°N, 0°E, so I assume Q4874809 is missing route data. I don't know enough about this to determine whether the cause and solution of this problem are in the article, the template, the Wikidata entry, or OpenStreetMap - if someone who knows more about creating route maps could take a look, that would be helpful. Otherwise, I wonder if we should go back to using c:File:Shutoko_expwy_wangan_route.png for the time being. --Opus 113 (talk) 19:00, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
