Fails WP:BIO and WP:PROF. An orphan article and coverage is mainly her being quoted in the media and not WP:SIGCOV about her. LibStar (talk) 02:19, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

• Comment. Not convinced this fails WP:ACADEMIC aka WP:PROF; criterion 1 asks if the academic's work is "highly cited", which a [https://scholar.google.com.sg/citations?user=k96cKgsAAAAJ&hl=en Google Scholar search suggests it is]. De-orphaned article but yes, it is in poor shape and needs attention. Cielquiparle (talk) 03:20, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
• :?? Those are definitely not high citations, especially for psych. She has an h-index of 8 and 240 citations on Scopus, that is nowhere close to what we expect for professor notability... JoelleJay (talk) 02:18, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

:*Delete. Here is a comparison of her Scopus citation profile to that of 60 of her coauthors with 10+ papers.

::Total citations: average: 2768, median: 930, Styles: 237. Total papers: 76, 42, 27. h-index: 19, 14, 8. Top 5 citations: 1st: 386, 139, 53; 2nd: 234, 78, 37; 3rd: 158, 55, 35; 4th: 132, 47, 20; 5th: 116, 44, 18.

::Doesn't meet C1.

::That's helpful if it is in fact a comparison against co-authors covering a similar sub-field of linguistic psychology. Cielquiparle (talk) 09:40, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

• Delete. Associate professors are sometimes notable, but the citation record doesn't look like a pass of WP:NPROF even in mathematics, a low citation field. (And certainly not for psychology.) No other notability apparent. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 09:18, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

:Delete. For the record, I don't think we should be using total citations as the metric; although I do appreciate that this citation comparison is subfield specific. Styles is an assistant professor recent associate professor without any mega-cited papers. Maybe she'll get there eventually, but she's not there yet.Mason (talk) 13:13, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

:Delete. simply WP:TOOEARLY for this person as discussed above. --hroest 18:21, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

• Delete. This is not highly cited for psychology, a high-citation field. We have no other evidence of notability. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:55, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
• Comment : This (https://www.ntu.edu.sg/news/detail/creation-of-50-new-named-faculty-chair-professorships-at-ntu ) suggests she has a "named chair" according to NTU. But their use of named chair is .. and hers is not a Full Professor Chairs but an Early-Career and Mid-Career Faculty Chair. This might allow a pass of WP:Prof 5. (Msrasnw (talk) 12:56, 29 August 2023 (UTC))
• :Named chairs at the associate level definitely do not count for #C5. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:14, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
