Please tell me how to add the middle name "Sylvan" to the article now titled "David Fine". The reason for the change is that another David Fine, a well-respected film actor, is very upset to find this description when someone searches Wikipedia for his name.

If that actor is very upset to share a name with one of the perpetrators of the Sterling Hall bombing, he is welcome to have his name changed. Even if we renamed our article, "David Fine" would still be turned into a redirect to the article on the (former) radical. I see no need to rename our article. Technically, you can find information on how to change a page name at Help:Moving a page, but as I said, it shouldn't be done here and wouldn't resolve the actor's problem even if it were done.

The main problem is that a Google search for "David Fine" produces the Wikipedia page with the text from David [Sylvan] Fine, but with the actor David Fine's photo. Can you suggest what should be done about this? Thanks! Gloria Hamilton

Firstly, there's no need to repeat our conversation; it's still at the top of this page. Secondly, if the actor's issue is with what Google displays (based on its so-called "Knowledge Graph", unless I'm mistaken), he should contact Google. Wikipedia does not control Google content, though Google may choose to take some of its content from Wikipedia. Huon (talk) 22:01, 26 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
