 * Delete, TOOSOON. I looked at his 52 coauthors on Scopus with 7+ papers who hold or have held research positions beyond postdoc (but including senior scientists in industry even though many of them did not do postdocs). Here are the results:
 * Total citations: average: 10429, median: 2800, Fenton: 1716.
 * Total papers: avg: 115, med: 36, F: 27.
 * h-index: avg: 33, med: 21, F: 17.
 * Top 5 paper citations: 1st: avg: 988, med: 312, F: 261. 2nd: avg: 535, med: 261, F: 239. 3rd: avg: 356, med: 245, F: 230. 4th: avg: 309, med: 236, F: 210. 5th: avg: 266, med: 158, F: 111.
 * He has a promising career, but at the moment he does not have a citation profile putting him well above the "average professor" in his subfield. JoelleJay (talk) 19:32, 8 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete, I don't see how this person is notable. 115.78.92.34 (talk) 18:11, 11 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Possibly redirect to Paul Fenton (ice hockey) – no idea if it's appropriate to redirect someone's article to their parent's. I'm not opposed to just deleting this though, it wouldn't be tough to recreate if he does become notable enough in the future. ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 06:20, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:PROF and WP:GNG.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 05:25, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
