shouldn't Max Aitken redirect to William Maxwell Aitken, 1st Lord Beaverbrook instead of the other way around? Kingturtle 18:39 17 May 2003 (UTC)
- That would be in line with Wikipedia:Naming conventions (names and titles), and it would probably benefit the page to have "Beaverbrook" in its title. It should be movable - the redirect has no prior history. --rbrwr

- So, I've moved it, nearly a year after this discussion. I hope there's no objection. john 00:06, 9 Feb 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Stelco
Wasn't he forced to move to England after brokering the deal the merged several companies into Stelco. It seems his comission was rather excessive.
[edit] Peerage
The article says: "He was granted a peerage in 1917". It should say something more about why, where etc.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.204.65.2 (talk) 08:19, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] WWII
His role in WWII is bizarrely short. Perhaps another could have done as well, but the production of aircraft for the Battle of Britain was crucial in turning back the Luftwaffe and preventing Sea Lion from proceeding. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.63.86.153 (talk) 17:12, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
