 * I've dealt with the imdb issues (easily fixed and hardly fatal to the article; I was a little surprised to see the resubmission refused). I've also added a few reliable sources, including more academic works that cover Barclay. I don't see a case for rejection any more. DrStandUp, I have a feeling you may know more about this area than me: have a look and see if there's anything to add before resubmitting.OsFish (talk) 08:14, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
