Atlanta Constitution

Hi all--I need your help. I'm looking for an article from the Atlanta Constitution, October 19, 1890. Unfortunately I do not have a title or a page number, but it's a report on a celebration held in memory of Sidney Lanier. The LoC seems to offer access to some copies of that weekly, but not that year--see this page. Do any of you have alternate fontes? A mention of that article is here, p. xxii.

Thanks so much, Drmies (talk) 22:22, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Requested microfilm of the issue from my library annex, will look. Eddie891 Talk Work 22:37, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Eddie891, thank you so much. You're the best. Drmies (talk) 00:42, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Drmies: Good news is I got the film and found the page the article is on. I grabbed a scan, not the best quality, but if you send me an email I will forward that scan, and can take a better quality one in a few days if the need arises (as I rather think it will). Eddie891 Talk Work 02:12, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Drmies sent the first attempt at scanning. At the very least we now know the article is titled "Sydney Lanier" and it is on page 11. Eddie891 Talk Work 02:54, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Drmies, can this be marked {{resolved}}, or do you need a higher-quality version? Newspapers.com has a mostly legible scan here, for what it's worth. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 19:56, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Extraordinary Writ, thanks. I can mostly read the scan Eddie provided; I don't have access to the thing you linked. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 03:43, 1 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

For George Griffith. I requested this previously, see WP:WikiProject Resource Exchange/Resource Request/Archive 146#George Griffith – The Warrior of If, and was alerted to Moskowitz's "War: Warriors of If" in Strange Horizons: The Spectrum of Science Fiction (1976), which is available via the Internet Archive. It turns out that these two essays are not identical, and there is a fair amount of information in the earlier essay that is not present in the later one. See also my request for other material in the same book at #George Griffith bibliography from "The Raid of 'Le Vengeur'" and Other Stories.

Thanks in advance. TompaDompa (talk) 00:34, 21 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have this source but the two requests together are 50-odd pages... That's over 1/3 of the book, and all of Moskowitz's own writing. I'm not sure I feel comfortable that it wouldn't violate copyright to send that much. Eddie891 Talk Work 17:45, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hm. I don't know how to move forward with that concern. I mean, I would only request the stuff that differs from the 1976 version of the essay (which is as I said earlier freely accessible via the Internet Archive), but of course I can't know what the differences are without comparing them side-by-side. What little I am able to glean from Google Books snippets confirms both that there are large portions that are identical and that there is a fair amount of information that is only in the 1974 version. The snippets have thus far been rather helpful to expanding the article in preparation for a future WP:Featured article nomination, so I expect that the rest of the material would be as well. Ping Eddie891. TompaDompa (talk) 05:10, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I understand, and I'm sorry but I don't feel comfortable scanning this section (believe me, if I felt it would be permissible, I would). Perhaps Worldbruce (or others) could advise if I'm mistaken? Eddie891 Talk Work 15:30, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Greek biography of Panagiotis Stamatakis

For Panagiotis Stamatakis. This is a bit of an odd request: I have completely drawn a blank as to how I would get hold of this book: OCLC has a few copies available in US university libraries, but those are a bit far to go from northern England.

If anyone is somehow able to access it and scan any part (the early parts up to 1876 are likely to be the most use: I would suspect that anything about Mycenae/Μυκηναι is duplicated elsewhere: equally, later material after 1878 is fairly hard to come by at present). Alternatively, if someone can track down a possible route to getting eyes on it in the UK, would be much obliged.

@Serial Number 54129, no listing for "Flanders or Swann", or "Flanders and Swann" (or "Swann and Flanders" for that matter). The quote Gbooks pulls up is on page 175, at the beginning of a chapter titled "The Whale in the Bathtub", which talks about the 2008 SNP election, Thatcher's favoring of the poll tax, the "erosion of representative democracy" in England, the creation of "Britishness", Tony Blair, and evolution, but unfortunately not Flanders or Swann, on a skim.

@Eddie891: I am so sorry. What a waste of time! So they just quoted the song? Who was to know though... gutting it took so long and so much hassle for you to find out. ——Serial 20:23, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, it would seem to be just a quote. Checking was no trouble at all. At least nobody had to spend money on the book itself. Eddie891 Talk Work 20:25, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The best new albums to listen to this week

For Soft Spot (song) and Beachin. I just dug out a review in the Sunday Times for the latter single via Palm Artists' Instagram which appears to be part of Dan Cairns' "The best new albums to listen to this week" series, for which the 30 January 2022 edition appears to have been pulled. If anyone has access to back issues, I'd like to confirm that it appears as it does on Instagram (just to make sure that they haven't interfered with it).

Thanks, Launchballer 22:44, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Launchballer, if it's in the Sunday Times I should be able to access it, but I haven't found anything yet. Maybe you could give me the first sentence of what appears on Instagram? (I can't see the image without an account.) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 08:35, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I've retyped the whole thing just in case I need it. "A duo who met when Piri, aka singer-songwriter, then a chemistry student at Lancaster University, discovered Tommy Villiers' band Porij, which formed at the Royal Northern College of Music. Soft Spot, the second song the couple wrote, became a huge, TikTok-assisted streaming hit last year, its mix of skittering drum'n'bass and nostalgia-infused pop immediacy [sic] sticking like glue. Their new track Beachin, inspired by the pair's first trip to the seaside together, is just as limpet-like: the combination of classic soul guitar, dubby bass and serpentine melody is pure musical escapism, the Nineties colliding with the 2020s, a song that both suspends and turns back time."--Launchballer 08:41, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Launchballer, found it: the Internet Archive saved a copy here. I still can't find it in my Sunday Times database: maybe it only appeared online rather than in print. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 09:02, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
