Yes of course.  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  Other encyclopedias do not cite to 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.
