I am lost here.
If your Wife became British because she married you, presumably you are already British? Or if you got it wrapped around your neck and you wish to become a British citizen because you married a Brit, then the answer is yes.
However, I presume you love your birth country? Then why not stay there and save us from more overcrowding?

I dont think so, check with the immigration information on the Home Office web site. Being naturalized as British does not give a person the same right to confer citizenship that being born British with a British parent does.
Anyway there is no automatic right for anyone . Everyone must apply to the Home Office and go through interviews and await the decision.

No, having a baby gives you no rights, it actually makes your case weaker as you have deliberately had a baby in britain when you know you have been refused ILR. it just looks like an attempt to cheat the system with no regard for the future of your child growing up without a father once you are deported. It was a big mistake.

You must apply for leave to remain in Britain.
If you already have that it is not necessary but after 3 years of being married you may apply for indefinite leave to remain.
When you have that for 1 year and have lived without state aid and no criminal record you may apply for naturalisation.
this takes about a year. So, the whole process will take about 5 years.

Anyone can apply. But you won't get special treatment because your wife has not the same rights as a person born in the UK.

I think, like in the US that you need to have been married and living here for a certain number of years before you can apply for citizenship.

Yes, you can apply for British citizenship now that your wife has become an British citizen

Yes. You need to apply for it with forms and things but you have a good chance of making it if your wife is British.

You won't qualify for citizenship right away.. but you may be able to get a visa which will allow you to live there.
