I have not reviewed an article about Japanese highways before so this will be interesting. I will start the review shortly once I have taken a look to see what other similar articles there are. simongraham (talk) 07:19, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

[edit]
  • Please amend "Its designation as Route B designation is based on the English name for the expressway" Suggest "It is called Route B after its name in English, Bayshore."
    • Done.
  • Please amend "for along Wangan-dōro—today's National Route 357. Much of the tolled expressway is paralleled by that highway, a general-use highway." Suggest "to add capacity to the existing National Route 357. It now runs parallel to the older road, which is used by more local traffic."
    • Done.
  • "It runs from Yokohama through the"… Suggest saying "The Bayshore Route then runs from Yokohama through the…" to clarify that we are now showing the route of the road.
    • Done.
  • "As a result, it is a vital bypass of the heavily-congested city center of Tokyo" Remove the word vital unless it can be verified.
    • Done.
  • "spectacular" Remove as per WP:NPOV.
    • Done.
  • "it is frequented by street racing during late night hours". Should that be "street racers"?

  • Please add ALT tags to the images.
    • Done.

Interested third party observations

[edit]
  • The Route is not highlighted in red in mobile view.
    • Noted.
  • The use of “southwest-northeast” in the lead, while accurate, is inconsistent with the “westbound-eastbound” used elsewhere in the article.
    • Amended.
  • Clickable links in references should be in English in the English WP.
    • The references are available in English are linked in English.
  • “Closed/former” in the RJL footer is superfluous.
    • The is in the template.
  • It seems illogical to show redlinks for existing articles in the Japanese WP. Downsize43 (talk) 10:46, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Removed.
  • Exit at 39.0 km has no destination or note. Downsize43 (talk) 23:59, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Corrected
  • Thank you, Downsize43. In the absence of User:Mccunicano, I have made relevant edits. simongraham (talk) 04:38, 5 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
