 * Keep - Barnes clearly passes WP:NACTOR's criteria as he "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films", specifically the Bad News Bears films, where his role as Tanner Boyle is consistently described in sources in the article and elsewhere as a significant role.

 * Keep we've had this discussion before and the answer was clear. While it's certainly acceptable to reconsider AFDs (especially over a length of time), the nominator needs to provide an actual reason to overturn the previous consensus, and pointing to just a policy is a widely-accepted argument to avoid in deletion discussions.  Per nominator is in that same boat.  I see no reason to delete or overturn the previous discussion and none has been given.  If a reason were brought forward, we can discuss it.  Otherwise, I suggested a close.--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:25, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment If people want to claim his role in the Bad News Boys was significant, we need sources that show that. Reliable sources, not IMDB.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:30, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Response I do not see any IMDB "references" in the "references" section. That is in the "external links" section.  The "references" section calls on multiple articles from 1977 to 1998.  I see Milwaukee Journal, Los Angeles Times, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, ...--Paul McDonald (talk) 00:45, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Tony Award winner. Meets WP:ENT. I have significantly updated his page with his Broadway plays, etc. Peter303x (talk) 09:23, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry got him confused with another actor. He is not Tony award winner. However, based on arguments of prior Nomination, it's a Keep. It should not have been re-nominated. Peter303x (talk)
