@Bookku: I try to get this but can't promise success. – Doc Taxon • Talk • 14:10, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I can understand difficulties.
Any ways to get help from US university libraries which may have digitized very old publications. I am asking since one more topic is stalled since old publications show up on Google Books due to digitization by these libraries but no known ways to get direct help from those digital data.

Employee Relations Management

I plan to work on the articles dealing with Labour in India in general and the gamut of labour legislations in India in particular in the near future, and would appreciate if someone with access to this specific book can send me the chapters falling in the aforementioned page range. Google Books offers a preview, but with many pages missing, so not very helpful. Scribd.com hosts the book for free reading, but apparently requires a subscription for download, and with a not so convenient reading interface, so a pdf would really help!

@MBlaze Lightning: are the page numbers correct? Do you know the chapter title? – Doc Taxon • Talk • 08:30, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Doc Taxon, thank you for your prompt response. The chapters are 9: Labour Legislation in a Changing Context pp. 160–193 and 10: Social-security Legislations pp. 194–221. Sorry for not specifying them earlier. Regards, MBlaze Lightning (talk) 09:54, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Images with watermark

For Simota Vase. As you can see on the link of the citation the article is actually in free access. However, the university that digitized it left a watermark in each page. There are three figures in the article which I would like to use to illustrate this upcoming Wikipedia page I will write, but I need them without the watermarks. The three figures are right below the last page, page 36. I am not sure how to cite this so I did not include it in the citation. To conclude, I only need the three figures, without watermarks. I will then upload them to Commons to use them as their copyright has expired. Here is a link to each of them [1] [2] [3] so that you know what I'm talking about.

Not sure if this can be done but I'd greatly appreciate it if it was possible. Super Ψ Dro 16:32, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Super Dromaeosaurus:  Doing... – Doc Taxon • Talk • 17:23, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Super Dromaeosaurus I actually was able to edit the PDF to extract unwatermarked PNGs. Send me a wikimail and I'll email them to you.
@Doc Taxon Apologies for taking this request you were handling. I of course wouldn't normally do this, but since I was able to edit the PDF there's no sense in waiting for what I assume is ILL. Feel free to cancel any requests you made if you can. — Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 23:42, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Mdaniels5757: it's not optimal for me, but okay, the job has been done. I didn't consider unwatermarking the pdf, maybe I could do this. Kind regards, – Doc Taxon • Talk • 13:17, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edward Storer's translation of Sappho

For Sappho. Strictly all I need is Storer's translation of Sappho 31 (beginning "He seems like a god to me the man who is near you", and headed 'To Anactoria', apparently poem VI in Storer's translation), but any more of Storer's translation of S would be greatly appreciated.

US-based editors should be able to get it digitally from Hathi Trust (linked in my request, but region locked so I can't access in the UK)
