this article covers two different entities, the "Baker Neighborhood", and the "South Side Baker Historic District"; i am an expert on this neighborhood, at least in its modern sense (credentials on demand), and i feel strongly that "South Side-Baker Historic District" and "Baker Neighborhood" should be two different articles; i am not an expert in Wikipedia's process, however, so i'm looking for help to sort this out; would it be appropriate to place the information below (except for my closing comment) into the main article?

the Baker Neighborhood is a statistical neighborhood defined by the City of Denver within the breadth of which are residents and businesses who share a certain commonality (neighborhood spirit, if you will)

=neigh&a=ngh&me=3133717.35467509%2C1678504.25791099%2C3146720.70660977%2C1690207.2746522&oml=1&ngh=Baker&t_ml=1&t_l1=1&t_l2=1&t_l3=1&t_l4=1 map of Baker Neighborhood

the South Side-Baker Historic District is geographically a small section (maybe 1/4) of the Baker Neighborhood; it was recognized first on the National Register of Historic Places and then later the same area (i believe) was designated a City of Denver Historic Landmark District

having lived in Baker for 9.5 years and been very active in neighborhood affairs and politics, I've never met anyone who refers to this neighborhood or even to the historic district as "South Side", but perhaps there is a past usage which makes this name relevant

>>I believe the photo of the former Gates Rubber factory is fairly inappropriate... first of all it is being torn down and second it is barely in Baker, let alone a defining marker of the neighborhood. Baker is really better defined by its historic residences, small businesses and proximity to busier and more urbanized neighborhoods to the north and east than anything else.
