Name

I don't think it's particularly necessary to have the clutter of his full given name, and a "also know as" and his normal day to day name. Question is, how to fix it? I'm thinking: putting his full name first, and day to day name in parenthesis after, or just use his full name and skip the day to day name. I vote for just his full name.

It just doesn't look quite right the way it currently is... XDisplacerx (talk) 14:07, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Full name alone seems right to me. I like to see "more commonly known as" when it isn't clear that the same person uses both names (Example: "Abadin Tadia Tjoessoep, more commonly known as Sheikh Yusuf or Sheik Joseph") but I think we all kvow that David and Dave are forms of the same name. 2600:1700:D0A0:21B0:5999:33F0:410C:E5C2 (talk) 15:40, 23 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What is Support.com? =

The article says "In December 2009, Xeriton Corporation was sold to Support.com for $8.5 million.[18]". Does does not mention what either of those companies has to do with Dave Plummer. Seems completely disconnected. Is this an error? What is Xeriton ?
