I could be wrong, but if it's already on the site, how would it be improved? It 
would have to be resubmitted, I would think, unless the administration could go 
in and fix the file, but then, that's what validators do...fix the files, if 
need be, before they're placed in the administrative pool. The administration 
does so much already that I don't know how practical it would be for them to go 
in and do all that to a file that already exists. If the one being validated is 
already of a better quality, it would be easier to just get rid of the one 
already there and let the new one take its place. Take care.

  Doubtless, but wouldn't it have been better to improve the one that was up 
than to do the job all over again?

    The point of my message was for the person who may be editing the 
Unfinished Life to check it against the copy on bookshare to see which one is 
of better quality. I know who validated the existing copy, and he did some 
cleaning up, including adding missing pages. 

    Yes, the Hearing is already on bookshare. However, the copy that I am about 
to upload is of better quality then the one on bookshare which is  the reason 
that I am approving it and asking that it replace the existing copy.  Even 
before I cleaned up The Hearing a bit, it was already of better quality than 
the one currently in the collection.

              The Hearing, by John Lescroart and William Shirer's The Rise and 
Fall of the Third Reich are also books already on the system, and both have 
been talked about in the past day or so as new submissions.

        An Unfinished Life: John F Kennedy: 1917-1963 Robert Dallek
        I noticed this book on the list for admin approval/being edited.  There 
is a copy already in the collection. I think it's rated excellent. So the person
        may want to check it out first before doing work on it.
