Talk:Ray Fisher (baseball)

Untitled
This page should actually be a disambiguation page. I was trying to find a page for Ray Fisher, the hugely influential Scottish folk singer; apparently such a page does not exist, but maybe because of this page here. This page points to a disambiguation page for Raymond Fisher, but in fact, Ray Fisher is ambiguous, as Ray Fisher the folk singer was not called Raymond. This page should be called "Ray Lyle Fisher", and be referred to by a "Ray Fisher" disambiguation page, which should presumably reference the Raymond Fisher page (or a single disambiguation page for "Ray Fisher" should server for all, which would probably be better).

Anyway - until this is resolved, here's a starting link for "The real Ray Fisher". — Preceding unsigned comment added by DominicCronin (talk • contribs) 22:22, 1 December 2013 (UTC)


 * I assure you this Ray Fisher was very real as well! :) If you want to create an article for the folk singer, I'd suggest titling that article Ray Fisher (folk singer).  It's certainly debatable whether this Ray Fisher is the primary topic for "Ray Fisher".  Perhaps, this article should be moved to Ray Fisher (baseball) and then "Ray Fisher" would redirect to Raymond Fisher, a disambiguation page. Jweiss11 (talk) 03:59, 6 February 2015 (UTC)

Ray Fisher → Ray Fisher (baseball) – I do not believe the baseball player is the primary topic. There are several notable Ray Fishers with articles, including Ray Fisher (actor) who commands the majority of page views. Ray Fisher can then redirect to Raymond Fisher where they are all listed already. Xezbeth (talk) 14:40, 21 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Support. Ray Fisher (actor) is the overwhelming WP:Primary topic based on |Ray_Fisher_(actor)|Ray_Fisher_(cornerback)|Ray_Fisher_(defensive_lineman)|Ray_Fisher_(singer)|Raymond_C._Fisher pageviews and a google search. After incoming links are cleaned up (looks like mostly templates), the actor should be moved to Ray Fisher. - Station1 (talk) 19:31, 21 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Support the move. The page-views support Ray Fisher (actor) being the primary topic, but I'm neutral on that move, as there may be recency bias and I haven't investigated in detail. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 01:24, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
