Comment: Might I suggest that this is not the appropriate forum to discuss whether  sets the bar too high?  That would instead be Wikipedia talk:Notability (academics).  We simply apply policies to particular cases

Comment: fails  criteria and . As an author, she is weak notable but that doesn’t give any reason for having an ency article. Let her prove more notability by writing more books so that we could consider it later

Comment: WP:PROF is sometimes misunderstood. It states: "If an academic/professor meets none of these conditions, they may still be notable, if they meet the conditions of otability or other notability criteria, and the merits of an article on the academic/professor will depend largely on the extent to which it is verifiable." The book reviews arguably establish notability as an author

Comment: I disagree about the book reviews.  If a book with a good press isn't reviewed, it is a complete failure; most academic books are reviewed in a number of outlets.  As such, I don't think it points to notability at all.  While one can fail  and still be notable, it will not be as an academic; I don't see anything in the article that asserts any notability outside of academe

Comment: As per  - "The person has published a significant and well-known academic work." Sorry, but the professor's one book doesn't seem to be either significant or well-known
