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.
