Why would it be listed in the National Trust if it's not notable. Your use of the royal "we" is not sufficient for projecting your idiosyncratic view of "notable" on the rest of us. Requiring the author to explain why a property is notable makes it easier to have shifting goalposts for notability to satisfy the AfD denizens. > > With over six *million* books now scanned, I think it's a much harder cry to > claim that some thing *not citable in Google Books* is yet still notable. > > I think six million books probably covers almost all territory that we want > to cover this decade.

I'm sure that there is much which they have not yet scanned. I am a little more discriminating than to believe yhat the two O's in Google's logo are two moons to be kissed.
