To the validating perfectionists,
While the time and effort you spend is wonderful and admirable, spending
hours or days validating for fifty cents is ridiculous unless you have an
inner drive and the satisfaction you receive for a perfect job is twenty
times the remuneration.
In the beginning, Jesse's estimated time for a validation was twenty
minutes. I spend from two to three hours removing junk characters and spell
checking after scanning and from the bookshare ratings and the comments I
have had from many of the validators my scans are quite acceptable.
In my opinion if it takes much longer to correct errors the book should be
rejected and the submitter should receive no credits.
Perhaps it might encourage better submissions.
Jim
