Robert Baker (martial artist)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This article had previously contained unsourced info about baker. all of it seems to have come from a book by Tom Bleecker, which may not be a reliable source, and the book in the references now, where the google books preview excludes his mention. internet search shows lots of mirrors to us. even the find a grave link seems to be either a mirror, or an unreliable source for our article, as there is no actual gravesite, only a "memorial" to him by a self proclaimed heir to Mathew B. Brady & Robert Capa. So, we are left with an actor who had 1 minor role, and 1 fight scene, with Lee. Is that enough for an article? this can all be summarized at the movie article easily.

 * Delete Doesn't seem to meet the notability criteria for actors or martial artists. The two references mention him because he was a student of Bruce Lee, but notability is not inherited. Astudent0 (talk) 19:06, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete following all the comments above. From a brief search for sources, the subject does not appear to be notable. Janggeom (talk) 15:28, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
