[edit] Copyright violations in this article/ Credit of source?

Much of the wording of this article -- although not all -- appears to be very, very close to the official bio of Byng on the Canadian GG's website: http://www.gg.ca/gg/fgg/bios/01/byng_e.asp

The GG's website does have a policy allowing Non-commercial Reproduction (see http://www.gg.ca/in-ai/index_e.asp#1) but they ask that "The Office of the Secretary to the Governor General be identified as the source department..."

Should the Byng article include a credit and/or link to Byng's page on the GG site? Cheers, Madmagic 13:04, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Pronounciation?

Just a quick question - how would you pronounce the name Byng? "Bing"? I'm asking because there's a pronounciation key in Arthur Meighen's page, and I'm simply curious. 99.245.2.237 (talk) 01:57, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
