Removed nonsense. This article is about a specific, notable, Keith Baker. Other people with the same name are irrelevant n this context, unless they are notable, as per policy. -- Ec5618 11:21, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How is it irrelevant? One 'Dungeons & Dragons' Keith Baker can and should not have the monopoly on the Wikipedia 'Keith Baker'. Just as there is more than one George Bush, there is more than one Keith Baker. I am reinstating the deleted text Inanimate

What about Keith 'Del Boy' Baker, the Dublin renowned auditor/IT guy/EBay whizz?

He resides in Dublin, Republic of Ireland.

Surely he's more well known than some 'Dungeons & Dragons' punter?

Keith is unofficially known as an 'IT whizz' and gives seminars and conferences in how to buy on EBay as well as find the cheapest of any item through a myriad of complex and extraordinarily ingenious internet sources.

He once had every material item he owned covered in chrome.

He has been known to cooperate with one Warren Kilgannon in such schemes as above!

He likes yellow & pink shirts. Inanimate

What are you going on about? What are you trying to say? How is this useful? -- Ec5618 12:41, 24 August 2006 (UTC) :What i am trying to say is that there is more than one Keith Baker in this world. Why should Keith 'Dungeons & Dragons' Baker have the monopoly on the Wikipedia enrty for Keith Baker? Inanimate

There's about a billion Keith Bakers in the world; if other ones are notable, then create a separate page for them, and then add a disambiguation page. For example, look at Wikipedia's Bob Jones or any other common name: separate pages for individual people. The solution to your complaint is to go and create a page for whoever this guy you're talking about is, not to vandalize the page of a specific Keith Baker that is famous enough to be 5 of the top 20 Google hits for "Keith Baker" (and the single top hit).BadIdea 12:56, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Blade Baker as he's known in the underworld is a known dangerous individual and should be approached with serious caution. They say the spikes on his head could kill a man. If youre trying to identify him, you may hear him say things like "How do ye like them apples?" or "Kick in the nads dot I E". Mug shots are also shown below:

Is that really his homepage

Request for photograph

I've requested a publicity photograph from Mr. Baker for the specific use of including on Wikipedia. He's generously agreed to provide one soon. I'm mostly noting this so other people don't bother him unnecessarily about it. Obviously if someone else has a photograph under a Wikipedia friendly license, that would be even better. — Alan De Smet | Talk 23:25, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This photo was taken by me and is being used with Mr. Baker's express permission.Broxmeyer2 (talk) 06:51, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
