Please note though that we can't use text from sources like the Press Association - you can take the facts from such an obituary and insert them into the Merlyn Rees article in your own words, but just copying and pasting the text violates copyright. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me! Cheers, sjorford (talk)  14:14, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
