Per
WP:PROF Vanity page for a dubious parapsychologist, originally written by the subject himself. Very little to suggest any notability within.the scientific field. Most references are to his own published works, mostly in low impact/open access journals. Little Professor (talk) 13:41, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: I think he might easily pass the WP:Prof test based on publications. His 1973 Visual imagery differences in the recall of pictures in the British Journal of Psychology seems to be cited according to GS by around 2300 and there are multiple other articles in this journal, and others, with high citation scores (100+). (Msrasnw (talk) 14:51, 4 March 2024 (UTC))]
- Keep per Mrasnw:
VVIQ has proved an essential tool in the scientific investigation of mental imagery as a phenomenological, behavioral and neurological construct
. That's significant impact.
- In addition, Marks is a Fellow (FBPsS)[1] of the British Psychological Society.
- I need to note that "dubious parapsychologist" is a massive mischaracterization of Marks's skeptical work on parapsychology. Paradoctor (talk) 03:03, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
- Comment only I suggest editors who want to comment on whether or not this article should be deleted should look at the previous AfD, as there are some relevant contributions. Schwede66 09:12, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
- I beg to differ. What there is is either obsolete, superseded, outdated, irrelevant, or wrong. Paradoctor (talk) 13:22, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
