I wrote, "The article as written contains no assertions, plausible or

"sources". AS WRITTEN. I would have been equally dismissive of a guy name
Ron who claimed to be part of a Odinic priesthood; no more and no less.

With Ruth having published articles in peer reviewed
journals multiple
times that have been directly responded to by dozens of times, having her
work and ideas forming a significant part of a book by KS Coleman that
directly talks about Ruth's life experences, mentions her full name 20+
times as both a source of information and about life details related to
Ruth, having some details of her life included in both a Thomsan-Gale
encyclopedia regarding LGBT topcs and a separate encyclopedia about Wiccan
and Neopagan traditions, as well as many other articles, including book
reviews, there's no question that she passes both WP:GNG and WP:AUTHOR.
These cites are not in the article but it took me approximately 115 second
(I timed it) to find them without having journal access configured. I
seriously doubt the article would've challenged if it were about a dude.
If you're going to tag something as non-notable, you should probably take
two minutes before doing so.

The book may be notable while the author is not.
It sounds like it's a
rehash of Joanna Russ' classic HOW TO SUPPRESS WOMEN'S WRITING.

Dang, I should have found some refs first. See
how out of practice I am!
I was sure I'd read it already was discussed by Time or something.
I'm sure that the bio will be quickly deleted, even after the book
published and reviewed, while thousands of male bios with no refs survive.
Sigh...

It looks like her bio is being challenged just as the book she
edited is starting to get reliable source attention. In case anyone
wants to work on it.
