I worked on the draft mostly to make it fit Wikipedia style and to give it the best chance of being accepted. But, I'm not sure she meets Wikipedia's general notability criteria WP:BLPNOTE (the world is unfair in that academics don't get media attention) or the specific ones for academics at WP:PROF. To argue that she does meet them, I'd lead with:

Fellow of: President of: Significant impact:
 * California Academy of Sciences
 * American Association for the Advancement of Science
 * Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory
 * Nuptial gifts, though Wikipedia's article does not mention Boggs

This isn't the kind of thing I usually work on, but I'm willing to help. Keep up the good work. SchreiberBike &#124; ⌨ 04:31, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Stephrivest, I've posted a note at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Women in Red in hopes that this might get some more attention from people who know the ins and outs of notability. You did good work with this article and whether or not this gets accepted I hope you will continue to contribute to Wikipedia. Keep up the good work.

 * This has had some work from me and others. I've resubmitted it for publication. You can continue to work on it too and I hope you will. Thank you, SchreiberBike &#124; ⌨ 00:28, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
