– I first came across this page when I was about to add something to her article and saw at the top that there was another Kim Crosby, a singer. I curiously opened up page views and noticed that the singer consistently has more views than the racing driver, who has been retired from racing for over a dozen years now. I know that for example, the two Ryan Newman's (the racing driver and the singer) are given their placement, I'll say, based on page views (who gets only their main name and who gets their name with their occupation in parenthesis). Even though NASCAR Newman is more notable than actress Newman, actress Newman seems to always gets more page views, so they were swapped. I'm proposing the same for the two Kim Crosby's for that same reason. Also, interestingly enough, when you google just the words "Kim Crosby", the singer will come up first. I am a NASCAR fan, so in my head I kinda wish the article titles would remain the same as are now, but I think switching the two article titles is the necessary thing to do. Along with that, I also request that we create a disambiguation page for the two Kim Crosby's.
Here's the graph on page views for comparison: https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&redirects=0&range=latest-90&pages=Kim_Crosby%7CKim_Crosby_(singer)

- Support Dab page - just an overall thought on the discussion, I'd be very hesitant to throw around "more notable" in any move discussion. Many projects have different notability guidelines besides GNG and comparing racing to singing/acting is like comparing tangerines to peppers.
