I suppose he should be Árpád Tóta W., according to Hungarian naming standards. "W." is part of the surname, isn't it? Miskatonic University 12:35, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

AFAIK, the W is short for Worluk, his nickname. It is supposedly derived from the buzzing "Worluk" character in the Commodore 64 "Wizard of Wor" video game. He used "worluk" as his pseudonym on the net preceding his status as a professional journalist. Thus, his legal name is simply Árpád Tóta, and Árpád W. Tóta seems like a reasonable way to represent his professional name in the English order. 195.228.79.242 17:21, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
