Vegagerdin (ICERA) roads, tunnels, and bridges pamphlet - in English

Page 11 of the pamphlet (page 6 in the PDF) The Road System 2012 has a list of all the completed road tunnels, their names, and their lengths. Probably is a better straight-from-the-horse's-mouth primary source than the current website we're using now. KevinHadley (talk) 15:43, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Tunnels are included in WikiProject Bridges

Tunnels are included in WikiProject Bridges, and this article is correctly tagged.--DThomsen8 (talk) 18:27, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

English names of Icelandic tunnels

There is considerable inconsistency in the naming of Wikipedia articles referring to icelandic tunnels (listed on this page).

Tunnels in icelandic all have the suffix of -"göng" attached to them, simply meaning tunnel. Tunnels in Iceland are always referred to, signed and named with this suffix.

Some articles on English Wikipedia referring to icelandic tunnels omit this -göng suffix and replace it with the english "Tunnel". .e.g. "Hvalfjörður Tunnel" as opposed to the original icelandic "Hvalfjarðargöng".

I would suggest one of two solutions:

1. Change all article names referring to Icelandic tunnels to their english translation, e.g. Hvalfjörður Tunnel

2. Change all article names referring to Icelandic tunnels to their original icelandic name, e.g. Hvalfjarðargöng

3. Change all article names referring to Icelandic tunnels to their original icelandic name following with the word Tunnel, e.g. Hvalfjarðargöng Tunnel

I think option 1 causes confusion for the average user, as the case of the word is changed and is harder to refer to. I would suggest option 3, despite its literal meaning of "-tunnel Tunnel".

Any thoughts?
