Resource Request

Fixing references and common medical problems!
Warning: for legal reasons, we must note that the Resource Exchange cannot fix any medical problems. But it can fix references.

Finding a source

Tips for finding a source yourself

  • Send a request to the author(s) of research papers for a copy of their paper by email.
  • Check what sources are available to you in The Wikipedia Library – editors active for at least six months with over 500 edits, at least 10 of them in the last month, and with no active blocks have immediate access to the Wikipedia Library Bundle.
    • Available databases in the bundle include: Gale, EBSCO, JSTOR, Oxford and ProQuest
  • Consider applying for access to additional Wikipedia Library sources at The Wikipedia Library Card Platform.
    • Additional databases include: Newspapers.com, NewspaperARCHIVE.com, Project MUSE, Taylor & Francis and much more.
  • Search for periodical titles in the Wikipedia Library database index at The Wikipedia Library/A–Z.
  • Check on Google Books, or your local library or national library may be able to obtain it through an interlibrary loan or subscription.
  • Search Google Scholar for archived copies of journals in institutional repositories.
  • Check whether your alma mater's library offers electronic document delivery services for alumni, if applicable.
  • If the article is paywalled, a browser extension may bypass the paywall. Try Unpaywall for academic journals or Bypass Paywalls Clean (Firefox, Chrome) for news websites.

Note that sites like Library Genesis (LibGen) and Sci-Hub offer direct, free access to a large range of publications, but there are legal questions around their use and neither the Wikimedia Foundation nor the Wikipedia community endorses them.

Making a request

  • A request may be an open question or you may ask for a specific journal, article or work.
  • All kinds of sources are possible here: newspapers, magazine article, databases, encyclopedias, court decisions, laws, books, etc.
  • We cannot perform full book copy requests due to copyright. Please ask for specific pages that relate to the article(s) you need them for.
  • You may contact research helpers directly or make a request on this page.
  • To receive email without disclosing your email address publicly, configure your email in Special:Preferences.
  • Provide as much detail as possible: a full citation with author, title, publisher, and date or identifiers like DOI, ISBN, ISSN, PMID, OCLC, etc.
  • Indicate which Wikipedia articles are being improved.
  • Once a request has been fulfilled add the {{Resolved}} template.
  • Filled requests are archived.
  • Requests unfilled after three months will be archived.

Fulfilling a request

  • Anyone may offer advice and fulfill requests.
  • Indicate which part or parts of the request is being handled so others do not duplicate your work.
  • Notify (mention) the requester using {{ping|REQUESTER_USERNAME}}.
  • You can:
    • point to a pre-existing electronic document by giving its URL ( http://... )
    • share scans of pages or documents using a file-sharing service, provided it is legal
    • upload out of copyright works to Wikimedia Commons and/ or Wikisource (but be careful that this does not breach your own institution's policies)
    • email a link or plain text to a requester using the Special:EmailUser feature but for attachments, you need to ask them to mail you first so you can reply.

Copyright tips:

  • Respect copyrights and terms of services of any online services you use.
  • Share content in a limited manner that is targeted at as few individuals as possible to achieve a specific improvement on Wikipedia. All content is shared under a presumed non-commercial, educational, fair use purpose in order to conduct research about topics on Wikipedia and/or to improve Wikipedia content.
  • Share copies privately rather than with a publicly accessible link whenever possible. Copyrighted articles from print publications or copies obtained through online databases should not be uploaded for unrestricted distribution via open websites. Preferably, do not share login access codes for entire websites; rather, share only an individual copy of a resource.
  • Remember that you take on the individual risk when sharing content, and act in a way that is comfortable and safe for you. Individual editors are solely responsible for sharing copyrighted content and assume all legal risks.

NRL Test and Evaluation Report 109, or any information on AN/SPS-48B.

  • Grady, D. F.; Dahl, W. D.; Orsino, R.J. (Feb 1970), "AN/SPS-48B Operational Program Baseline Tests", NRL Test and Evaluation Report 109, Naval Research Laboratory

For AN/SPS-48, the AN/SPS-48B is in this odd spot where there's a bunch of references to it *existing* on things, but nobody ever actually stops to say what it was or what the changes were. This is probably something where there's one copy sitting in some filing cabinet in the bowels of the U.S. Government, but anything helps if y'all can get ahold of something useful.

1947/48 edition of the Tank

For List of commanders of the British 7th Armoured Division and 7th Armoured Division (United Kingdom)

I enquired with Google, and they will not provide a full preview of The Tank and these issues. This version on Google Books has multiple issues, and I am not sure which ones these come from.

The first article is entitled "The Seventh Armoured Division" ("The 7th Armoured Division" on the contents page) and is between page 205–209. This one discusses the disbanding of the division and its wartime service. The articles require a good source on when the division disbanded in 1947/48, and hopefully this article will provide the date or period this occurred.

The second article, which may just be called "The Fifth", discusses the reformation of the division and verifies that its new commanding officer was Miller (I have been unable to verify his command via the usual sources). That information is on page 236, but I cannot tell what month or year they are referencing.

Can anyone access this journal and either: provide a copy of the relevant articles; verify and provide the information on the cited pages; or, update the above articles with information from the relevant issues?EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 16:55, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Worldcat doesn't show any open access volumes. Christie's shows alternative verification in Tout l'œuvre peint de Toulouse-Lautrec, which is on Hathitrust, but locked, so cannot see p. 113 and Toulouse-Lautrec by G. Néret has no on-line version that I can find. Any chance someone can find Dortu, volume 2?

Vasily Katanyan's Memoirs, sourcing an image

  • Katanyan, Vasily (1998). Воспоминания [Memoirs] (in Russian). p. 128.

The photograph 1918 vmayakovsky-lbrik retouched.jpg is used in the article Lilya Brik. The metadata on Commons states that it was taken in 1918 and "appeared retouched in official Soviet publications" in the 1960s, but AFAICT this is insufficient to establish that the image is in the public domain in Russia or the United States. I am hoping that the book from which the photograph was sourced may have additional information. Therefore, if the photograph appears on page 128 but is described in neighboring pages, I request those pages as well.

For Tonight (David Bowie album)

Hi there, I'm looking for the page number(s) from Rolling Stone issue 434 dated November 8, 1984 that has Kurt Loder's review of David Bowie's album Tonight (I can't find an online version anywhere and I have no idea if it was live at one point but gone now.

As I was taking care of old article drafts in my user subpages from yesterday evening till today's overnight (a process I'll resume soon enough), I approached the one for a little-seen 1975 South African family film called Forever Young, Forever Free (a.k.a. e'Lollipop). Back when I set up the draft in mid-July 2011, I left in a GNewspapers link to a Milwaukee Journal article from ca. 1976–78 mentioning U.S. distributor Universal's decision to shelve the film. That very link, news.google.com/newspapers?id=9lYaAAAAIBAJ&sjid=PSoEAAAAIBAJ&dq=forever-young-forever-free&pg=6179%2C1411996, is no longer around due to licensing issues; the current Journal-Sentinel team switched to a partnership with NewsLibrary by the late 2010s. (Not even Wayback has it preserved, to my dismay; why do such things tend to happen to me?)

Fourth of July tomorrow or not, I'd preferably like someone from Wisconsin or nearby to fetch the story from library microfilm/database or otherwise—en route to the last missing piece this article needs. (Bonus points if more material is unveiled.) With luck, we might aim for GA status sometime down the road.

Best wishes,

History, July 8

Hi guys. It looks like WP Library now has an awesomely comprehensive search engine across all my available libraries, such as EBSCO and friends, right? That's too good to be true, so does it work like it appears? Thanks to everybody involved.

1) Does anybody have the full contents of this article titled "THE STRUGGLE FOR THE SOUL OF FRONTIER BAPTISTS: THE ANTI-MISSION CONTROVERSY IN THE LOWER WABASH VALLEY"? This inquiry is for Isaac McCoy and possibly others: his associates (Johnston Lykins and Jotham Meeker), and their missions (Carey Mission and Pottawatomie Baptist Mission Building).

2) I'm looking for the Lexington Express article cited in "Seizure of Arms". I know 1800s newspapers like to change their names all the time, and I found one mention of "Lexington Weekly Tribune". The closest I can find to "Lexington Weekly Express" is this collection of 8 pages. And do you have this {{cite news| newspaper=Daily Missouri Democrat|date=March 18, 1856}} which is also related to the Arabia? That's all I can find on newspapers.com.

Thank you so very much. — Smuckola(talk) 02:44, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
