 * Delete. There was a Robert J. Parkes who published US history books in the 1970s that might have enough reviews for WP:AUTHOR, but the dates and topics don't match, so I'm pretty sure it's a different person. This one has enough publications with double-digit citations in Google Scholar to reach an h-index of 12 or so, but that's not enough to convince me of a pass of WP:PROF. And I don't see any other claim of notability in the article. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:43, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. First off, this is a c.v., not an article, and everybody knows (as of 2021) that we have never been a resume hosting service such as LinkedIn. Secondly, under WP:PROF, we almost never include associate professors, absent some important reason (discrimination against a female/POC scholar, recent discovery, etc.). Sorry.
