GO Transit[edit]

In keeping with ISO 3166 taggings, I’d suggest instead of "-GO" the more cumbersome "-CA-ON-GH" (Canada, Ontario, Golden Horseshoe); as the 2-letter code "GO" might be assigned to a new or renamed country unexpectedly, and even if not might confuse users into assuming this is an ISO 3166 country code. Alternatively specific railway company designators could be used, instead of country codes, but I have no suggestions about that. --Tuvalkin (talk) 01:40, 15 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't want to get unnecessarily long just for the sake of ISO. Plus you have to admit the scenario is at best highly unlikely. (not like we were dealing with the language ISO codes). Circeus (talk) 01:50, 15 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, just saying. By the way note that ISO 3166 is country codes, while ISO 639 is language codes. --Tuvalkin (talk) 22:44, 15 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I know. THat's kinda why they change less often XD. We ran into issues with language codes over at Wikt:, but it's not like these kind of issues are likely to arise very often for these icons... Circeus (talk) 23:42, 15 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Danish S Bahn[edit]

Hi again! Once more, if you want to stick with ISO 3166 for countries (which is the way to go), then lSBHF-DA should be lSBHF-DK instead — see en:ISO_3166-1_alpha-2#DK. --Tuvalkin (talk) 17:42, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
