David Barron (judge) → David J. Barron – Prior move was never discussed. Seems to meet both WP:COMMONNAME and WP:OFFICIAL per such references at: https://www.ca1.uscourts.gov/david-j-barron and https://hls.harvard.edu/faculty/directory/10046/Barron. No disambiguation would needed as there are no other "David J. Barron" pages Snickers2686 (talk) 22:46, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

 * Support per WP:NATURALDIS. I have no objection to removing less commonly used middle named or initials where this does not require addition of a disambiguator, but in this case there are plenty of sources that use the "J.", and none that use a parenthetical. BD2412  T 05:14, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Support per nomination and BD2412. The judge is indeed most commonly referenced with the middle initial. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 09:01, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Support per the above. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 18:46, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Which is it?
I’m confused and maybe mistaken. But it appears at the beginning of the article that he is said to be known for writing a controversial memo JUSTIFYING drone use to kill enemy combatants but later it says he co-wrote a memo (or whatever) that was AGAINST this action.

Did he somehow write a document FOR the use of Drones to kill on the battlefield AND ALSO write a document against it?

My first thought is that a word got removed by accident, changing the meaning. Sorry if I missed something but I just wanted to make sure this was right and say that it is perhaps unclear as written. Intelligentguest (talk) 12:34, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
