It could mean making a shift of what it means to say.... No book left behind. Change can take time but we can move toward.... No quality book left behind. The value of a well scanned book is of more value than a book for a books sake.

I think anything below 98% should be poor and 98 to 99 % fair. These are doable percentages with today's software. Anything with 99% and above can be excellent. But, for instance, The Abortion Myth was listed as being "excellent" when submitted. It had a rating of 97.5 and contained 228 single occurances of words which I could not figure out. I got it up to 99.5 by the time I sent it in for the new books page. That last 5% was made up of the 228 individual one-time occurances of words. I did not reject it outright since it is not a light reading piece of fiction. If it were, I would have rejected. The real issue here which noone is interested in addressing because it is personally messy is that many of these poor scans come from repeat folks. If bookshare staff does nothing to curb it, we validators are going to have to send a stronger message by rejecting books.
