    fix pass after the batch check. Provenance now names this run and its date. The SIM card line reads like the other Montenegro cities again; two bundle prices that no opened page shows were dropped. The hostel line now gives the street address printed on the map entry and the travel guide (Nikole Đakonović bb), not a street from an unrecorded lookup. The bus station line uses the guide's Totosi bb address with its phone number and round-the-clock hours instead of a street the map entry does not show. The highway line now follows the road article: the coastal route E851 begins at Sutomore, not Petrovac, and the Sozina Tunnel detour is cited to the town article that states it. The hospital, library and old-town square lines add reverse-lookup citations for the streets the bare map entries do not display. Several map-entry source titles were corrected to drop streets and figures those pages do not show.
