Talk:Atlantic Ocean Tunnel

Primary sources edit

In my opionion the source http://www.atlanterhavstunnelen.no is reliable since it is maintained by the company responsible for the project, owned by the county and municipality.

I have added a link to the Norwegian road authority page about this tunnel. However it is no so updated. --BIL (talk) 07:44, 11 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

There are two news articles about the project linked, but they seem to be based on the road authority and construction company press releases, making them somewhat primary also. Also there might be requirements on sources in English. --BIL (talk) 08:51, 12 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Suggested article name change edit

I propose that the article name be changed from: 'Atlantic Ocean Tunnel' to: 'Averøy-Kristiansund Atlantic Ocean Tunnel'

Using only Atlantic Ocean Tunnel makes the article sound as though the tunnel is crossing under a considerable distance of the Atlantic Ocean, which it clearly doesn't. A redirect link can be added to the old article title. Harry Zilber (talk) 16:33, 11 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

I was initially attracted to this article because I thought it was a variation of Transatlantic Tunnel. As for that specific name, it's not terribly helpful to non-natives. How about Norwegian Atlantic Ocean Tunnel? The Norwegian wiki name is Atlanterhavstunnelen (veitunnel) [Atlantic Tunnel (road tunnel)], so even they aren't that particular about the endpoints. —EncMstr (talk) 17:04, 11 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Call it the Atlanterhavs Tunnel if the Atlantic Ocean Tunnel is too boastful. --BIL (talk) 08:51, 12 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

....then we'll end up back with 'Atlantic Tunnel', only with a compound Norwegian-English name! EncMstr's suggestion of Norwegian Atlantic Ocean Tunnel is fine with me. I'll leave this proposal open for a longer time period to see if other suggestions come forward.Harry Zilber (talk) 12:32, 12 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
