Propose rename
editEvery scource I have shows that Duncan-Smith was and still is hyphenated; for accuracy and out of respect to the family the name of this article should be changed to W. G. G. Duncan-Smith. Minorhistorian (talk) 02:57, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
- I have created a new article titled W. G. G. Duncan-Smith the material of which has been copied from this article. I have requested a Speedy Deletion (CSD G6 "non controversial move") of this article to avoid confusion. Minorhistorian (talk)
- Oppose all official sources do not hyphenate his name and his son doesnt either. MilborneOne (talk) 19:17, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- As the article has already been moved (after only a few hours of the proposal!!) I propose moving it back unless a reliable source is available that contradicts all the official ones! MilborneOne (talk) 19:18, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
- Cough* Mea Culpa! My apologies, I see now my scources got it wrong...errr..got carried away...*cough* Minorhistorian (talk) 04:37, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
- No problem - moved back. MilborneOne (talk) 08:01, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
Smith or Duncan Smith?
editBoth are used in the article, even in the same paragraph. The father (Wilfrid Arthur Smith) was a plain Smith, not a Duncan in sight. Did something happen?
