Two literature reviews for rare genetic disorder

Novem Linguae, the third (Columbia Journalism Review) is available through Gale Academic Onefile, which you should be able to access through The Wikipedia Library. In answer to how I found it, I just Googled "A bad case of the '80s" Columbia Journalism Review, and the first result (of only three total) was the Gale page; believing that Gale is included in The Wikipedia Library, I went there and pulled it up to be sure. --Usernameunique (talk) 04:40, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I'm looking for a September 12, 1961 Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada article for my draft on Donald Strathearn Rawson. GBooks has a snippet view but I would like to see if the full text has anything that would be useful.

Thanks! MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 03:20, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@MrLinkinPark333: The Internet Archive has the 1961, Vol. 18 Index of the Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada. According to it, the obituary of Rawson is on page 479 of issue 8. —Bruce1eetalk 06:27, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
According to Canadian Science Publishing, Rawson's obituary is in the Volume 18, Number 4, April 1961 issue of Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada. The page numbers (479–482) tie up with the Internet Archive index linked above. A search for "Donald Strathearn Rawson" confirms that this is Rawson's obituary. —Bruce1eetalk 07:26, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Can anyone find out some more information about File:Expansion projects of 1975.jpg which was upload as a citation in Cedar Bayou plant#History. The paper seems to be the Baytown Sun and the paper's online archives don't seem to go all the way back to 1975.

Thanks in advance. -- Marchjuly (talk) 09:57, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Bruce1ee. Is there a way to possibly combine them into one link that could be used in a Template:Cite news. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:47, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Marchjuly: There isn't a way to reference Newspapers.com clippings from different pages with a single url. And as far as I can see, the cite template suite only accepts one url per citation, although you may be able to get by also using one of these parameters: article-url, chapter-url, contribution-url, entry-url or section-url, but I've never tried that. The only solution I can think of is to use two citations, the first one with "title=Gulf Plant Here Biggest in U.S. page 1" and the page one url, and the second one with "title=Gulf Plant Here Biggest in U.S. page 2" and the page two url. —Bruce1eetalk 12:25, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the clarification. I figured that might be the case. I thought about two citations, but at the same time a link isn't needed per WP:SAYWHERE. Newspapers.com is really the original source anyway, but it's more of a convenience link that I usually specify using the |via= parameter. Thanks again though for tracking down the actual article. -- Marchjuly (talk) 12:29, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

IFPI Global Music Report 2020

For de:Italienische populäre Musik

I asked this already one year ago, sadly without getting a reply. But I still need the report and can't find it anywhere. Apparently, there is a number of libraries in UK and US that have the report, so maybe someone can access it (but: the IFPI only allows citing if the institution got an external-use license). I need the section about Italy. Would be highly appreciated!

Thanks, XanonymusX (talk) 13:18, 22 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

XanonymusX, I tried ILLing this without any luck. I also reached out via online chat to the NYU and Harvard libraries, which have the report (Harvard doesn't have 2020 yet), but are only providing them to current affiliates at this time. The Harvard librarian suggested a) reaching out to the IFPI directly, as they *might* be willing to spot you one page (they might be even more likely if an older page would work, like from the 2019 report), and b) reaching out to the Berklee College of Music librarian listed here, as they have the current report and, again, *might* be willing to send you a page.
There are enough well-known institutions with electronic and/or hard copies of the report (NYU, Harvard, USC, Stanford, etc.), that another possibility would be finding a current affiliate of one of those institutions; many if not most of them could likely either access it online via a database, or have their school scan and email it. One option would be to reach out directly to people listed at:
Category:Wikipedians by alma mater: Harvard University
Category:Wikipedians by alma mater: New York University
Category:Wikipedians by alma mater: Stanford University
Category:Wikipedians by alma mater: University of Southern California
The caveat is that most of these are likely to be alums who no longer have the access they once had. (Looking through the userpages might give you a better idea of who's an alum and who's a current affiliate.)
A third suggestion would simply be to chat up more librarians at the libraries listed on WorldCat. Perhaps the answer 9 times out of 10 will be that only current affiliates have access, but if that's the case, it only takes asking 10 times before you find what you're looking for.
Fourth, there might be a better chance of ILLing this once the world returns to normal. --Usernameunique (talk) 20:44, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the effort! I have just sent an email to the Berklee librarian (from my student email account, maybe that helps). Will try some others if this one doesn’t work. The music industry isn’t exactly the best ally of free knowledge, so asking the IFPI directly seems hopeless to me. Of course the issue is that the data would need to be updated every year with the new report, so an easy way to have “permanent” access would be ideal. Let’s see what I’ll achieve! Regards, XanonymusX (talk) 21:11, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
XanonymusX, any luck? --Usernameunique (talk) 19:03, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, I have indeed not received the ping! The Berklee librarian has answered after two weeks, but unfortunately same issue there, only for registered students. I have not yet decided which institution to try next, maybe I’ll give the UK ones a try next week. —XanonymusX (talk) 20:57, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ijmusic, I see you are at Berklee. Is there any chance you might be be able to help out? The report can be accessed at this link, by clicking on "2020 Report" under the heading "IFPI's Global Music Report". Cheers, --Usernameunique (talk) 03:20, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@XanonymusX: Requested via ILL because there is no reason not to, but I doubt I'll have any more success than Usernameunique did. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 19:34, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
XanonymusX, per the messages here and here, it looks like you should get able to get the pages in question. Let us know when you get them. Also giving Compassionate727 a heads up, given the pending ILL request. --Usernameunique (talk) 22:41, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, thank you all so much, I have received the Italy report now! :) Funnily, exactly one day before the release of the 2021 Report (according to IFPI). I will make my long-awaited updates now. Regards, XanonymusX (talk) 23:11, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Awesome, glad you finally got it, XanonymusX. May as well keep an eye on Berklee's page; no harm in asking for the pages from 2021 report also, when it comes available. In any event, marking this as resolved. --Usernameunique (talk) 23:31, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

1978 article in Human Events

For Mass killings under communist regimes I have not been able to find the following: Todd Culbertson, "The Human Cost of World Communism," Human Events, August 19, 1978, pp. 10-11 (cited here). The website for Human Events has very little archived, as far as I can tell. The closest I have come is this hardbound edition of back issues from 1978 at Amazon, which is unavailable. Does anyone know a way to locate a digital version or how to maybe obtain a copy from the Library of Congress or elsewhere through an interlibrary loan? Any help is appreciated. Thanks, AmateurEditor (talk) 07:29, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't meet the reliable sources standard required for that article as this is not a peer-reviewed journal and the author is not a qualified historian (or demographer); instead he is a "member of the Editorial Page staff of the Richmond Virginia News Leader". (t · c) buidhe 07:33, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
User:buidhe, the source is cited by Benjamin Valentino, a Dartmouth College professor, in a source directly about the topic. See the links provided. I am interested in independently confirming its contents. AmateurEditor (talk) 10:45, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Being cited by one otherwise reliable source does not make this a RS for the subject. Anyway, figures from forty years ago are not reliable given that the Soviet archives later revealed many earlier estimates to be totally off base. (t · c) buidhe 21:47, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree it is not a reliable source for the current state of knowledge. Any advice on locating it? AmateurEditor (talk) 02:37, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Volunteer editors here are unlikely to help you if it is not suitable to cite in an actual Wikipedia article. The purpose of this board is only for concrete improvement to Wikipedia articles not general edification. If you cannot show that the source is reliable, then why is anyone going to spend time getting it for you? (t · c) buidhe 14:08, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Buidhe: Oh, I see. While it is not a reliable source for the current state of knowledge, it is the most reliable source for its part of the history of the topic and would be used specifically to make a 1978 entry in the bulleted timeline of published numbers of people killed by communist regimes in the "Estimates" section in the Wikipedia article. According to Valentino, the source includes a statement that communist regimes have killed "perhaps 100 million" people, which preceded any other source I am aware of in reaching that number. Arguably, the Valentino source could be cited for the Culbertson 1978 estimate instead of the Culbertson source itself, but it's valuable to verify the context of that quote in the source itself before adding it to Wikipedia. AmateurEditor (talk) 04:58, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Most ProQuest subscriptions, including TWL's, have Human Events only back to 1998. But digital full text is supposedly available all the way back to 1944 for institutions that license their "Periodicals Archive Online Collection 2" or "Periodicals Archive Online Foundation Collection" - probably the larger research university libraries. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:51, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A catalogue in Chinese and English from a Hong Kong Museum of History exhibition. There are google snippets available, [3], [4], but the latter is not loading for me, and having the four pages in full would be preferable, not sure how possible this is though!

Bennv3771, it's not the article in question, but there are lots of mentions, and it seems to have made its way into a number of museums. Examples that might help: 1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6; 7; 8. --Usernameunique (talk) 04:42, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

May 1958 Ladies' Home Journal article

For Twilight Sleep. I've had pretty good attempt at finding this myself and I have come up short. I have a umich login at Hathitrust (link to volume in citation), but I'm an alum, so I don't have online access. That said, I'm not sure even if you are a current member of a university that you can get it online. It may have to be a request to a library that has it on microfilm or on paper and then digitised, unfortunately.

Article in a 2003 issue of TV magazine Radio Times

  • (can't figure out how to do a citation here) - the article seemingly titled "monster magic" on pg. 38 of the 6 November 2003 issue (issue no. 4156) of Radio Times; it seems to be an article about this TV series and since sources are hard to come by, will probably be useful. It exists as per these; 1, 2.

For Sea Monsters (TV series)

Thanks, Ichthyovenator (talk) 13:56, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Ichthyovenator, how confident are you in the page number? I asked for pages 37–39, and my library claims they couldn't find it in the page range. The first link you provided says "Monster magic: page 38", but it also says "Appears in: Issue 4156, 6 November 2003, Page 78". It seems as if the text on the website is a transcription of (part of) what appears on page 78 of the 6 November 2003 issue. Do you understand "Monster magic: page 38" to be referring to another page in the same issue of Radio Times? Considering that it follows a reference to "(S) BBC BOOK: Sea Monsters, now available price £17.99", could "Monster magic: page 38" be referring to a page of the BBC book instead? --Usernameunique (talk) 09:19, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Usernameunique I am so sorry for not responding to your earlier response more than a month ago - I don't know how I managed to miss it. I am very thankful for your efforts to attempt locating this quite obcure source. As for the page number, your guess is as good as mine if it's correct, I'm just going off based of what the site says (though I'm fairly confident that it's not from the BBC book and indeed from an article titled "Monster magic" in the magazine - no heading or section by that name exist in the book to my knowledge). Ichthyovenator (talk) 13:09, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Usernameunique: You said you'd try to ILL it again; any word? —Compassionate727 (T·C) 19:19, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Compassionate727, it's "Awaiting Unfilled Processing" as of February 26, which means that the first library they tried can't fulfill it. They might try another library—seems like the issue is held by a number of them—but I'm not sure. I'll let you know when i hear more. --Usernameunique (talk) 19:23, 1 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Compassionate727 & Ichthyovenator, no luck, unfortunately. After sending the request out for a second time, my library cancelled it, saying they were unable to find a library with it. --Usernameunique (talk) 18:09, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Usernameunique Considering how difficult it appears to be to track down this magazine article perhaps I could retract my request for it here (not sure how the process works)? I have no idea what they wrote about the TV series in the magazine and any reliable source would be helpful in beefing up the Wikipedia article further, but I'm not sure if whatever they wrote is going to be worth your efforts and seemingly needlessly (it appears the source truly has gone up in smoke) wasting your time. Ichthyovenator (talk) 19:52, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Ichthyovenator: If you would like to withdraw your request, just tag it with {{Withdrawn}}. But perhaps you should wait to see if Usernameunique has any other ideas. —Bruce1eetalk 20:46, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ichthyovenator & Bruce1ee, I've sent an email to the BBC Genome team, asking if they can provide any more information about what exactly appears on page 38; I doubt they'll be able to send a scan of the page itself, but hopefully that can say whether it is an article, blurb, or something else. After that, my next thought would be to reach out to libraries directly and ask them to check their holdings. And no worries about the effort involved—I've gone to great efforts myself to track down information that barely warrants a footnote in an article, so empathize with the desire to find this. --Usernameunique (talk) 21:27, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Usernameunique As long as you're fine with continuing the search you're welcome to do so; here's hoping the source will actually be useful if you manage to find it! It's clearly difficult to track down - if you run into a dead end or feel like stopping just let me know and we can call it off. Ichthyovenator (talk) 17:16, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ichthyovenator, here's the BBC's response: The piece “Monster Magic” on page 38 of that issue of Radio Times is a very short piece about the Walking with Dinosaurs special “Sea Monsters”, promoting the programme as something the family could watch together. There is not a great deal of information, some of it is information taken from the BBC book “Sea Monsters” about the creature Dunkleosteus, together with a Radio Times offer to buy discounted copies of this book. Let me know if that sounds useful. If so, I can try to ILL this again when the world settles down a bit more; the University of Washington says it appears to have a copy, although its ILL department is currently closed, and probably will be for at least a few more months. --Usernameunique (talk) 14:27, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Usernameunique I am sorry if I have wasted your time but per that response it doesn't sound as if there is a whole lot of information to glean from the text. The information from the book will not really be anything new and the offer to buy a discounted book does not sound like something that could be meaningfully incorporated in the article on the series. I was gunning for something akin to a review in order to beef up the "reception" section in the article - as it is now, that section gives the impression that reception to the series was mixed whereas most online reviews (blogs, imdb etc.) are highly positive (but cannot be cited per WP standards). Ichthyovenator (talk) 15:04, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, Ichthyovenator. And it's not a waste of time at all. Given the above, are you comfortable marking this as {{resolved}}? If you do want to take a look at it to be sure, give me a heads up in a month or two and I can give the University of Washington another try. --Usernameunique (talk) 20:58, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Usernameunique, I'm marking it as resolved right away. A anticlimactic end to the search to be sure, but I am very impressed with the lengths you went to in order to track down a source as obscure as this. Ichthyovenator (talk) 21:09, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
