I would still like to see a valid example of a rare work cited where there is no scholarly edition available. I'm skeptical that such a case exists. As I said, we don't require verification of all things by all editors, and we don't want a situation where only a few editors can verify *a* thing. What we want is something in the middle, a bell curve of verification-ability. But with both 10% ends chopped off. Other encyclopedias do not cite to rare holdings, they will cite to a published edition of such a rare holding. Will Johnson ************** A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
