Talk:John Atchison

message: Does anyone know how long he has served as an Assistant US attorney?
: No I don't. So far I've found it impossible to get any information other than what I picked up in the initial articles that just came out. I can't even verify that he's a registered Republican, though many are claiming that. A B Carter (talk) 20:58, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Does anyone object to changing the display name from John Atchison to John David R. Atchison? 
The reason for this change is there is a lawyer with the same name in Canada, who has no affiliation with or relation to the former attorney in Florida, but because of Google's search engine algorithm, his photo is appears next to the description. After over 50 error reports to  Google and numerous attempts at speaking to them the change has not been made.

: I tried to dig through back newspapers, etc., to find the common name used, and it seems like a fuller form is pretty much always used, so some sort of change in this direction is not only possibly helpful to you, but is also suggested by other Wikipedia policies.  Based on those guidelines and the sources I've seen, I've used "John David Roy Atchison".
: I will add, however, that it may not help the Canadian lawyer in question, for a number of reasons specific to Google's search algorithms and so forth.  It is unfortunate that the name conflation at the heart of this causes them difficulty. --j⚛e deckertalk 19:18, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: John David Roy Atchison →  – This is his name as most commonly reflected in RSs. Compare "this name google search with this name google search. Though those results include non RSs, the RSs are at the top, and show the same large leaning towards the more common shorter version of the name. It is already a redirect. But no need to encumber the project with this longer name, out of step with other articles at the project. 2603:7000:2143:8500:9B8:B23B:7DDC:518E (talk) 20:53, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
