Varzo Spiral Tunnel

Moved from my talk page. -- ZH8000 (talk) 18:05, 16 September 2017 (UTC) Hello ZH8000[reply]
Your reversal to my revision to Template:SimplonTunnel serves no purpose except to create a lot of work. Varso tunnel has already been called Varzo Spiral Tunnel in the listed articles. The ones in bold cursive are especially important. So your reversal creates a lot of unnecessary work.

@Peter Horn: I am sorry, but you are totally mistaken. The Varzo tunnel is not a spiral tunnel; this should already implicitly be clear by its given length (81 m). The spiral tunnel is however already correctly named that way: Varzo spiral tunnel. And it makes no sense to produce red links as long as there is no clear intention to create as respective article! Thanks. -- ZH8000 (talk) 18:05, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ich verstehe es. My apologies. As such I have switched the two around on the template itself. The longer one of the two is the spiral one. The red links already exist and as such are an invitation for someone who is in the know to create a suitable article. Peter Horn User talk 18:23, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
