• Weak Delete H-index of 25 does not seem terribly high for a high-citation-rate field like psych (my measure by the very unscientific method of randomly checking the h-indices of 3 or 4 other associate professors at randomly chosen research institutions), so not passing WP:PROF criterion 1, and what else is there?

• Keep. She's attracted a lot of major-media attention for her research, as I've added to the article. I think she passes WP:GNG, and likely also WP:PROF#C7. She also clearly passes WP:PROF#C5 as the holder of a named chair (now added to the article as well; at the time of nomination it just said she was an associate professor). Finally, I don't know what searches the nominator and Ray were trying, but when I do it I see [http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=author:a-fernald 13 publications with over 100 citations each in Google scholar] (factoring out the ones that don't seem to be by her) which to me is easily enough for a pass of WP:PROF#C1. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:54, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
• Change to Keep per David Eppstein. I was making a first effort to normalize my Gscholar h-index checks with others in the field. Clearly, I must've picked a bad batch. Will try to be more careful in the future. Ray^Talk 01:43, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
• Keep: Jeebus how many of this mass-nomination drive by nominator turned out this way?--Milowent • ^talkblp-r 06:09, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
• Keep for substantial reasons above. A time-wasting nomination. Xxanthippe (talk) 09:32, 7 December 2010 (UTC).
