Carol again:
You must be right. I didn't see any mention of that search limitation,
but it may be that the entire DNB has that restriction. I tried
Elizabeth II and Margaret Thatcher as test cases and neither was listed.

BTW, the entire many-volume set can probably be found in most
university libraries (and certainly in the Bodleian Library since the
DNB was published by Oxford University Press).
