Take this as a personal opinion. 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.

I want your feedback on something. Keeping in mind the caveats mentioned about ranked spelling, below what threshhold would a book become fair and below what number would a so-called fair book become poor and hence rejected?
