Appears to be a self-penned CV of a "social entrepreneur", accompanied by a verbose list of projects that he's allegedly been part of in (often) some vague and unsubstantiated way. I can't find anything of substance about Barrie online. The occasional news article only mentions his name very briefly. Time for it to go, fails WP:GNG. Sionk (talk) 19:54, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete per nom. It appears that the subject is a UK Councillor but fails WP:NPOL.  The problem is that there really is little information there out there about him other than passing mentions, like a recent YMCA project in his town.  Also doesn't help that most edits to the article were done by: User:Mrdavidbarrie.  Jip Orlando (talk) 15:30, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep While he doesn't meet WP:NPOL, he might slide in under WP:DIRECTOR. According to his listing on IMDB, he has 16 director credits, including When Steptoe Met Son, an episode of The Dark Side of Porn, and an episode of Monarchy (TV series), along with several BBC documentaries, some of which sound like they could be notable although they don't have WP articles.

 * Delete per nomination. It does read more like a self-penned Linkedin CV rather than an encyclopaedic entry for someone peer-reviewed and widely discussed in independent sources. As it stands, the subject fails WP:CREATIVE and WP:FILMMAKER Pupsbunch (talk) 20:28, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete DPnom. Fails GNG. Only mentions. L3X1 (distænt write)  02:05, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
