Name

Is there some good reason why I shouldn't move this page to Alan Hacker and show the "Ray" only as part of the lead? I have never before heard him described as "Alan Ray Hacker", and the various references to him in other Wikipedia articles and elsewhere invariably refer to him as "Alan Hacker". Google searches produce 263 "Alan Ray Hacker" entries (mostly taken from en.wikipedia.org) and 11,900 entries for "Alan Hacker". --GuillaumeTell 22:35, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Marriages

The article currently describes him having one marriage which produced three children. This is inaccurate. His son (Alcuin Hacker, born circa 1977) was a product of his second marriage, to Karen Evans. However, I can't find a referencable source for this. I know it personally only due to having been a neighbour in the 1980s; I was a childhood friend of Alcuin. 195.81.245.98 (talk) 12:20, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
