Not having read the report, the 900k page site may be:
1. hansard, and therefore a general output of something that already 
has the content certification requirement regardless
2. database generated

Does it say who has 900,000 pages?

also, just because a site has a fewer number doesn't mean that it's 
not also database generated.

Our truest response to the irrationality of the world is to paint or 
sing or write, for only in such response do we find truth.
