"Think of your site as this huge pyramid. Within the pyramid will be other pyramids. All pyramids are linked naturally based on the architecture of the site."

This is exactly the structure of our site. Makes no difference. For the deeper the content the less likely the indexing. For use to do a sitemap up to level three is virtually impossible.

The sitemap would be on level 2 and anything from that page would be level 3. Since level 4 is not getting indexed we cannot put 2000+ pages in that one file. We could split and have 15 sitemaps (linked from the home page) for each "category" Still with the number of articles in each category it would be impossible to put less than 100 links on the level 2 (which would make the articles level 3). Also that means there would be 15 site maps off the home pages sucking PR away from the normal site structure.
