Hi, I think that the submitter and the proofreader could consult together in
posting guidelines for a file. Why assume the two parties will automatically
underrate or overrate a book? Hopefully both parties are people of good will
who wish to inform the reader. Anyhow, submitters will submit stuff they
like or stuff as a favor for somebody else. In this instance, all they want
to do is send in a great scan. I think it's entirely possible for both
parties to submit guidelines that will inform the reader. People will have
their opinions, but they can choose when and how they will be expressed.
Regards, Kim.

I believe that if bookshare were to go to using a combo box system for
example to indicate the level of various objectionable elements that the
should probably be locked against the submitter just as the adult content
check box currently is.
This is due to my belief that the submitter is likely to be more biased in
this assessment and systematically under-rate material.
Kind of a "I don't read that trash." sort of thing.
