Listing the Icelandic PMs by surname only is confusing and breaks with the Icelandic convention. I would argue that a full name listing is required. -- Palthrow 01:50, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-07-02T01:50:00.000Z","author":"Palthrow","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Palthrow-2007-07-02T01:50:00.000Z-Untitled","replies":["c-Ashley_Y-2007-08-17T06:22:00.000Z-Palthrow-2007-07-02T01:50:00.000Z","c-Ashley_Y-2007-08-18T01:30:00.000Z-Palthrow-2007-07-02T01:50:00.000Z"]}}-->

Agreed, indeed they are of course strictly not surnames but patronyms. —Ashley Y 06:22, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-08-17T06:22:00.000Z","author":"Ashley Y","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Ashley_Y-2007-08-17T06:22:00.000Z-Palthrow-2007-07-02T01:50:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
I've fixed this. I'm not sure if it's acceptable to abbreviate patronyms, however. —Ashley Y 01:30, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2007-08-18T01:30:00.000Z","author":"Ashley Y","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Ashley_Y-2007-08-18T01:30:00.000Z-Palthrow-2007-07-02T01:50:00.000Z","replies":["c-Haukurth-2007-09-17T22:28:00.000Z-Ashley_Y-2007-08-18T01:30:00.000Z"]}}-->
I think it's okay, if slightly unusual in this context.

Either stick with the full name, just the given name, or just the "surname" and stick with it, else this list will become inconsistent.

It seems consistent and readable to me now. When the same name occurs twice the initial of the 'last name' is used for disambiguation.
