  • First of all, is it possible to include some sort of recording of the tune? Even a MIDI would be better than nothing, and would greatly add to the value of the article.
  • Secondly, this lacks any illustration. The postcard from Marching through Georgia might do for a start, and a picture of the Rangers' stadium, perhaps?
  • Thirdly, I don't suppose it's possible to source a comparison between Marching through Georgia and Billy Boys? It's obvious that there's a slight connection in lyrics (Bring on the bugle, boys / We are the Billy Boys), but it may well not be sourcable, and that's fine.

Very heavily leaning towards "Promote". Adam Cuerden (talk) 13:50, 21 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've added an external link to a video of Rangers fans singing Billy Boys and added a pic of Ibrox. Unfortunately I can't seem to find a source that compares the two sets of lyrics, most sources that mention both only say that Billy Boys is sung to the tune of MTG. The C of E God Save the Queen!

You like tiny, tiny thumbnails, don't you! I've doubled the image sizes. Anyway, Promote. Adam Cuerden (talk) 15:00, 21 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
