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".

@
DominicCronin: 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.

Requested move 21 April 2018
The following is a closed discussion of a
requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a
move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: consensus to move the page at this time, per the discussion below. If a subsequent move of
Ray Fisher (actor) is warranted, please put through a separate request in order to gauge consensus for that change.

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.

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.
