Non-notable bit player. IMDB knoweth him not. That's next level obscurity. Guy (help!) 22:58, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Google-generated translation of the Chinese Wiki article seems to indicate that his notoriety stems from being a contestant on a Chinese televised talent show (assumably similar to "America's Got Talent"). The Chinese page offers no help in improving this article, as while it does detail Barry's small list of minor roles in Chinese TV series, it still consists of mostly pointless information about who manages Barry's Facebook account and who Barry has a crush on (no joke). It should probably be deleted too.

Delete as WP:PROMO as it is close to a G11 speedy deletion which isn't surprising considering it's a 60% copyvio of his facebook page so could be eligible for G12 as well , imv Atlantic306 (talk) 23:25, 16 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete 'Popstar' my left buttock. The article is promotional. I was unable to find news mentions of him in a quick search, which pretty much disprove the first line. — Insertcleverphrasehere ^{(or here)}_{(click me!)} 18:20, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Tried to find more information and, well, even if he were notable an article would probably have to start from the beginning rather than build on this text which has more interest in embellishing the truth than neutrally writing about the subject. /Julle (talk) 23:42, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
