South Park, Houston article

At the South Park, Houston article, I put:

• "Chuck Philips of the Los Angeles Times said in 1993 that South Park was "a tough Houston ghetto dominated by drug-dealing, prostitution and gang warfare-where automatic rifles can be..."" with the source: Philips, Chuck. "Rap Defense Doesn't Stop Death Penalty `The music affected me,' says Ronald Ray Howard. `That's how it was that night I shot the trooper.'" Los Angeles Times. July 15, 1993. Start page 1.

But I cannot use Google News to find the rest of the sentence. I tried to get it to show the rest of the sentence, but I could not. Who is an LA Times subscriber or can access the LA Times from a library database? Would someone mind finding out what the rest of the sentence says? —Preceding unsigned comment added by WhisperToMe (talk • contribs) 21:32, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

The full sentence reads "He grew up on the streets of South Park, a tough Houston ghetto dominated by drug-dealing, prostitution and gang warfare-where automatic rifles can be purchased almost as easily as rap cassettes." I can provide you with the full article if necessary. Dr pda (talk) 22:13, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Inter Press Service article

Hi all, I'm looking for the fulltext of "AFRICA-POLITICS: RWANDA'S REVENGE", IPS News Wire, A. Lama, Jul. 11, 1996 as previewed here: [2]. Highbeam offers a 7-day free trial, but a few screens in they casually ask for a credit card number "just in case" - that's usually where I click the X to make screen disappear now. I'm trying to straighten out just what the heck the neologism "Lima syndrome" actually means, so if anyone wants to research the term more generally, excluding the thousands of Wikipedia mirrors, that would be great too. It's a bit of a long shot, but if anyone can pull it off, most appreciated! Franamax (talk) 21:27, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

South African article

Can anyone find a copy of what exactly ANC MP Peace Mabe said about runner Caster Semenya? I've tried the South African Hansard, but no luck. One lead might be "The so-called gender machinery in South Africa requires much more attention", 26 August 2009, Cape Times. BrainyBabe (talk) 17:05, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

I've posted a copy here. Let me know when you've successfully downloaded it so I can remove it. Note that this appears to be an opinion piece (see the disclaimer on the very last line) so may not qualify as a reliable source for what Mabe said. Dr pda (talk) 23:55, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

I've downloaded that article, thank you very much, but it doesn't fully answer the question.

...chairperson Peace Mabe (ANC) first made the apt comparison between Saartjie Baartman, prodded at by white, male, European scientists almost exactly 200 years ago, and Semenya, who's been subjected to ostensibly "scientific" gender tests because she does not conform to a certain feminine identity construction.

Mabe indicated that while the media was saturated with this issue, the department's position was not being heard publicly. She also demanded to know whether it had provided any support to the "beautiful young lady". <snip> Afterwards, Mabe told Independent Newspapers political reporter Carien du Plessis that the department should have proactively prevented the tests by sending in lawyers.

"Make a comparison, "indicate", "demand" are all paraphrases, though I have no reason to doubt their accuracy. Any ideas how to get to the direct quotation? BrainyBabe (talk) 16:06, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

It looks like this page has what you need. It has a summary of what I think is the same meeting, copies of the documents handed out and even audio of the meeting. I haven't looked in detail at any of these though. Dr pda (talk) 21:35, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

You rock! I have no idea how you found that, but well done. The minutes of the meeting are just what I need, short of a transcript. Thank you. BrainyBabe (talk) 22:38, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Citations to and text of mammalian cryonics study from 1957

Would someone with access to JSTOR please help me get a copy of Smith, A.U. (December 17, 1957) "Problems in the Resuscitation of Mammals from Body Temperatures Below 0°C" Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological Sciences, 147(929):533-544 ("14 pages" -- there must be a three page fold out leaf)?

What I want even more than the full text of that article is the the list of citations made in 1990 through 2010 to it from the Science Citation Index/Web of Science. Please leave that list on my talk page if it's too long for you to feel comfortable about leaving here. I am also very interested in the CSI/WoS citations listed in 1990-2010 to Houlé, J.D. and Das, G.D. (September, 1980) "Freezing and transplantation of brain tissue in rats" Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 36(9):1114-5, but I don't really need the full text for that one, as the abstract is good enough for my purposes at present -- not that I would mind having the full text.

Cystic fibrosis

Cystic fibrosis, a Featured article, is undergoing review of its featured status, but unfortunately copy editors are not working on prose and style issues before content and sourcing have been addressed. The entire October issue of Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine was dedicated to reviews of cystic fibrosis; MEDRS don't get much better than this, and these articles could really be used to spruce up the article and perhaps save it at FAR. I realize this is a very tall order, but maybe if several editors contribute... Fvasconcellos (t·c) 13:20, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

I couldn't find that article despite my database telling me it had access to The Dallas Morning News. Possibly the archive I have doesn't go back far enough.

Einstein quote

Resolved

Can someone help me find a source that confirms or debunks the following quote, supposedly by Einstein?

"Since the mathematicians have invaded the theory of relativity, I do not understand it myself anymore."

Maybe this can be useful: Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
Thanks, Waldir ^talk 13:52, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

I am not sure what you want. Do you want the original source? It is mentioned in Albert Einstein, Philosopher-Scientist (by Schlipp), but unsourced.--droptone (talk) 17:51, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

I also looked into this. The quote with the wording you give appears on page 102 of the 1949 edition of Albert Einstein, Philosopher-Scientist P.A. Schlipp (ed.). This is in an essay by Arnold Sommerfeld entitled "To Albert Einstein's Seventieth Birthday"; according to a footnote this was translated specifically for the book by Schilpp, from "Zum Siebzigsten Geburtstag Albert Einsteins" which appeared in Deutsche Beiträge (Eine Zweimonatsschrift) Vol III, No 2, 1949. Thus there are grounds for believing the English version of this quote can be traced to Schilpp's book. Also, given that Sommerfeld was one of the "invading mathematicians" (according to his Wikipedia article "His mathematical contributions to the theory [of special relativity] helped its acceptance by the skeptics."), I would be inclined to believe it is genuine Dr pda (talk) 20:34, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

Many thanks, droptone and Dr pda :) I found this in one of those powerpoint slideshows that get forwarded by email and thought it was very interesting, but doubted its authenticity, especially since I didn't find it in the (rather long) wikiquote page (not even the talk page). I'll add it there, but if you can think of an article here on Wikipedia it could be relevant, please add it as well! Cheers, Waldir ^talk 20:53, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

update: Actually, it had been added already :) I added the details and links from here, with due credit of course :) About the article on Wikipedia where to add this, there seems to be a perfect candidate: Mathematics of general relativity. What do you think? --Waldir ^talk 21:30, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure if it would add anything encyclopedic to that article. Dr pda (talk) 23:46, 24 March 2010 (UTC)

Well, think of it as one of those "did you know" facts: it's true, and it might amuse the reader and hopefully give more incentive to read the article (or the book, or the wikiquote page). We don't have to be oh-so-serious all the time :) --Waldir ^talk 08:55, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

Completion of bibliographic information

As identified on the talk page of NCAT Pavement Test Track, the bibliographic information for about ten sources is incomplete, namely lacking the title and author's name, which should be addressed. We do, however, have page numbers. The creator of the article seems to have left the project immediately after "completing" his educational assignment. Since at least some of the article was copy/pasted, it would also be good to check those sources (those without public web archives) against the original version of the article for copy/pasted text that may not already be out of the article by now. The article also needs a free photo and I am not sure who to ask. The public USGS imagery on MSR Maps (formerly known as TerraServer) is from around 1950, way too old to see the track. PleaseStand ^(talk) 11:20, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

I've added the bibliographic information for about half of them, the following still need authors and titles (I don't have access to them)

• Montgomery Advertiser: p. 3C. October 24, 2000.
• Asphalt Contractor (Cygnus Business Media): 22. June 2001.
• World Highways (Route One): 66. January/February 2001.
• Hot Mix Asphalt Technology (National Asphalt Pavement Association): 34. July/August 2002.

Hello, I looking for a citation to Assassinated Catholic priests in Guatemala concerning two people on the list. The first is Faustino Villanueva who gets a ghit at the following ArchivedURL. Unfortunately, it is a pay-for-view and I don't have the money to pay for it (truck problems). Next up is Tulio Maruzzo Rappo who gets ghits as Maruzzo Tulio Rappo and is supposedly a saint by different URLs found. None of the URLs are neutral cites but he is listed as a saint.

Re Tulio Maruzzo, were you looking for sources that he is a saint, or sources that he was assassinated? For the latter see this page from the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights or this page from the Catholic Church in Guatemala, which also seems to indicate that sainthood has only been "applied for".

Elias and companions

Resolved

Would someone be able to access Eusebius's Historia Ecclesiastica, volume VIII, Chapter 11 - "The Martyrs of Palestine", in order to clarify the concerns I've expressed in Talk:Elias and companions? Thanks in advance, Waldir ^talk 08:38, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Does this work? Twas the only mention I could find of that guy.--droptone (talk) 17:51, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Hm, that's strange. I looked up some other sources and they indeed point to chapter 11. Specifically, this got me thinking whether the source could be a different book, by citing it as

"[Eusebius'] account is in b. 11 of his Martyrs of Palestine, trans. and ed. H. J. Lawlor and J. E. L. Oulton (1929)"

However, this one again pointed to his Church History, with the citation in the following form:

"From Eusebius's relation of the martyrs of Palestine, at the end of the eighth book of his history, c. 11, 12. p.346. Ed. Vales"

I'm not sure what to make out of this, but maybe these more specific pointers can help. --Waldir ^talk 19:48, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Apparently the Martyrs of Palestine was originally a separate work. A longer version now exists only as a Syriac manuscript, but a shorter version in Greek was inserted into the Historia Ecclesiastica. Different manuscripts have it in different places, in some it is between Books VIII and IX, in some at the end of book X, and in one in the middle of Book VIII, ch 13. Some translators include it and some don't. One translation which does include it can be downloaded as a 40 MB pdf nicely converted to text from here, (p743). An earlier edition can be browsed online as a series of page images; the relevant passage starts here. The passage is indeed in chapter XI of the Martyrs of Palestine, which is inserted at the end of Book VIII in these editions. Dr pda (talk) 23:16, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Two cows - newspaper article from 1936, The Modern Language Journal from 1944

Resolved

For our article at You have two cows, I'm trying to find:

1. The article in The Modern Language Journal, January 1944, vol. 28, pp.29-39, titled "In Defense of Dictionaries and Definitions".
2. An article referred to in the second snippet here that should appear in an issue of The Sun (New York) from c.1936. The title is supposedly "Parable of the Isms".
   (Alternatively, this is currently cited to the following reference, which might be give further details as to where exactly the original printing/author is: "500 Years of New Words", by Bill Sherk, Doubleday, 1983, ISBN 0385179022, p. 162.)

Got it. Thanks. :) -- Quiddity (talk) 17:49, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

On the second, the book does not provide a further citation. "Widely circulated throughout the country arond 1936 was the famous "Parable of the Isms"". Someone will need to chime in on the Sun article.--droptone (talk) 17:34, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

I don't have access to The Sun either, however the parable (not under that name) was mentioned in a letter to the editor in the Los Angeles Times, Nov 25, 1938. In the Chicago Daily Tribune, December 3, 1938, p21 the parable is attributed to Silas Strawn in an address at the Economic Club Dinner, November 29 1935. Dr pda (talk) 02:30, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Marvelous! Would that mention be considered a citable source, and if so, any suggestions on how we'd format it? Or does this need to be researched further (and how? do we need to write to the Economic Club of Chicago asking for a transcript?)? Thanks again. -- Quiddity (talk) 20:05, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Major newspapers are usually regarded as reliable sources, so I think it would be fine to cite this for the Chicago Daily Times asserting Shawn as the source. I would be inclined to add the information to the existing text as follows:

Bill Sherk mentions that such lists circulated throughout the country since around 1936 under the title "Parable of the Isms".[7] A column in The Chicago Daily Tribune in 1938 attributes a version involving socialism, communism, fascism and New Dealism to an address by Silas Strawn to the Economic Club of Chicago on November 29, 1935.<ref>"The Class in Political Isms". Chicago Daily Tribune. December 3, 1938. p.12, col.3.</ref>

If you wanted to make a stronger statement, e.g. Silas Strawn used a version involving socialism, communism, fascism and New Dealism in an address to the Economic Club of Chicago on November 29, 1935, then you would indeed have to confirm the details, eg by emailing the Economic Club of Chicago, as you suggest. They may well have a transcript, as their 75th anniversary book on their website has transcripts from many speakers. At the least it should be possible for them to verify the date of the address—pages 163–217 of the 75th anniversary book appear to have a list of Dinner Meetings of the Club (unfortunately this is not online). I've put a copy of the Chicago Daily Tribune column here so you can see what it actually says. Dr pda (talk) 02:22, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

Perfect. Huge thanks to you both. I've added it to the article as suggested, and will mark this as resolved. -- Quiddity (talk) 20:08, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

Glendale

Resolved

Hi, I'm trying to find out whether the following is correct "Glendale is the anglicised version of its gaelic name, Gleann Dail, which means valley of fertile, low-lying arable land. The name originates from Scotland."

Does anyone have access to The Cambridge dictionary of English place-names or The history of the Celtic place-names of Scotland by William John Watson? P. S. Burton (talk) 22:47, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
