I think we are on the same track; what I was trying to say was why taking
longer with a book is often necessary even though not required under
Bookshare's validating requirements. I like you want to make the book
excellent if I can and often deliberately choose a book marked "good" if it
is something I want to read.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] validators and quality ratings
Jill,
One of us must be misunderstanding. I thought that validators are supposed to change the quality rating if what they do to the books changes the quality, and that's what I've been doing. If the validator takes the time to improve the quality of the book rather than just does the minimum checking for copyright and complete pages, it makes sense to change the quality of the book. If the validator doesn't do anything more than the minimum, I suppose changing the quality isn't necessasry. I generally take Fair books and make them excellent.
Cindy
