PLEASE NOTE: to all wiki-bots. I am in the process of finishing off this page and it is not being made any easier by people continually modifying the page and so preventing me from updating my edits. There are things in this article that do not apply directly to the tunnels, but that is intentional. My study of the tunnels has been a comparative one. Without providing the comparison, the importance cannot be governed. In time I intend to relieve the pressure of these comparisons with extra wiki articles, but for the time being I am forced to lean very heavily on them.

Please also note: whoever it is who continually edits this page, they remove many of the links and references and then tag the page as un-linked and un-referenced. Please stop. You are vandalising this page. I have read widely on the topic and have included journal articles relating the the tunnels. If you can show that you have done better, then I would say you are qualified to announce what is relevant. This article has been written in close conjunction with the world-expert on these tunnels. ( the Opera Ghost ( talk) 01:43, 25 June 2008 (UTC))
I agree with the editors who have noted that this article is written as a personal essay. This is a viable topic for an article, but at present it is structured as an assessment of the site's heritage value, which both violates WP:OR and is an unsatisfactory focus for an encyclopedia. I would suggest that it be re-written so that it's a history of the tunnels. This re-write should exclude the text about the construction of the tunnels being driven by "paranoia" and "‘terror’" as this seems unjustified given that there was a reasonable chance that Auckland could have come under air attack during the War and building air raid shelters was a sensible precaution. Comparable shelters were built in Sydney and Melbourne and many other towns and cities in south-eastern Australia. Nick Dowling ( talk) 05:42, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
The tunnels are notable enough to qualify for a Wikipedia entry. If they have any official "heritage" status such as the NZ equivalent of listed building or NRHP, then give details. But beyond that, say no more. You do not need to try to convince us of the importance of the tunnels.
They were built during the Second World War, that makes them an heritage site - that is implicit. It would be possible to write an excellent article on these tunnels without using the word "heritage" at all.
And if you are actually writing a proposal that the tunnels should be given a new, formal "heritage" designation, then you definitely should not be writing here: wikipedia is not a forum. — RHaworth ( Talk | contribs) 01:45, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to 2 external links on
