Where is this highway?
Does anyone know where the highway in this image is? It's taken from this video. Seems to be Route 3 near Kobe, though I'm not sure (1:04 in the YouTube video shows clear signs). Nehme1499 12:50, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't see a route number, but the sign you're referring at the 1:04 mark is mainly a warning sign stating that road ahead is wet and that the section between Mukogawa and Fukae is closed due to construction. It also states that it will take 15 minutes to get to Tenpozan and 15 minutes to get to Mizuhai. It's been a long long long long time since I driven in Kansai, but that might be what you're seeing in that video based on Kobe Route. -- Marchjuly (talk) 13:59, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your help! I've added Category:Route 3 (Japan) to the image. Nehme1499 14:07, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

Kishida Cabinet
Someone please check it (^) and Second Kishida Cabinet. I assume one article is enough for one premiership? So, what's the second article about? A reshuffle? A hoax? Usedtobecool ☎️ 15:41, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
 * When Kishida was selected as the leader of the LDP at the end of September, he became the de-facto PM because his party was the largest member of the ruling coalition in power at the time; thus, that was his first cabinet. When the LDP–Komeito retained power in the national election held on October 31, he remained the PM and that would be his 2nd cabinet. He replaced some of his cabinet members so I guess that would be considered a re-shuffle. Note that Kishida Cabinet now redirects to First Kishida Cabinet; so, a separate article for each cabinet appears to be the convention when dealing with this kind of thing. See Category:Cabinet of Japan for some other examples. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:15, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The shorter answer is: constitution, Article 70.
 * So, it will not be a mere "reshuffle" and it's somewhat more than mere "convention". As the National Diet convenes after the 49th general House of Representatives election, the current, 100th [(First) Kishida] cabinet must resign under the constitution. The 206th National Diet [bound to convene November 10] will hold an election to designate a new prime minister who will then be appointed as prime minister of the new, 101st [with likelihood bordering on certainty, save for divine intervention/insurance cases: Second Kishida] cabinet. --Asakura Akira (talk) 18:11, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

Draft:Tetsuya Noguchi
I have started a draft about the artist Tetsuya Noguchi where I have collected a few likely sources in English, which I believe do at least establish the subject's notability. I would really appreciate assistance/collaboration from someone interested in contemporary Japanese art and able to access sources in Japanese. BTW I have noticed that there is no link to the archives of this page in the header. There is simply a mention of the existence of archives but no way to access them.

 * The links are there, but you have to click "[show]" to the right of "Project talk" to show them at the top of the infobox labelled "Talk & archives for WP Japan" at the top right of the page. ··· 日本穣 ·  投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe ·  Join WP Japan ! 18:42, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
 * I've cleaned up the article, expanded it, and moved it to Tetsuya Noguchi. His art is pretty interesting. ··· 日本穣 ·  投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe ·  Join WP Japan ! 20:42, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
 * @Nihonjoe Wow, that's very nicely done, thanks. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 21:28, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
 * And, for good measure, I whipped up a stub for Kobori Tomoto. ··· 日本穣 ·  投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe ·  Join WP Japan ! 22:56, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

All the data is from here: https://www.nhk.or.jp/senkyo/database/shugiin/2021/00/tousen_toukaku_senkyoku.html Bwmdjeff (talk) 15:51, 6 November 2021 (UTC)

Help with Japanese Handball
Hello

The Japanese Handball Federation scanned all theirs Bulletins since 1960. This would be a gold mine for Asian Handball. But we have no Japanese speaking author at the WikiProject Handball. So we are not able to use this information.

My request is if somebody from your project is willing to help. First it would be help full if you could improve the articles about the competitions which the men's and women's national teams particped. Especially the Asian Championships. Because most of the author are from Europe and we didn't found a lot off sources for the early editions.

Thank you very much for your help. Please ask for further questions. 🤾‍♂️ Malo95 (talk) 08:11, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
