Help dating 18th century French painter Antoine Graincourt

Hi friends. I'm attempting to resolve the dating inconsistency in the Antoine Graincourt article and a simple google search is not cutting it. Could someone who has access to an academic library or database help? The article says in the text Graincourt's dates are 1699-1753, but also places him in the category 1748 births and 1823 deaths.

Google searches suggest that the dates 1699-1753 are probably wrong: being actually the birth and death dates for one of the people Graincourt painted, Bertrand-François Mahé de La Bourdonnais. For example, see this biography of Mahé at Biographie.net ("né à Saint-Malo le 11 février 1699 et mort à Paris le 10 novembre 1753") or this museum page from a museum that has Mahé's portrait in its collection, and attributes the 1699-1753 dates to Graincourt, not Mahé. Google also turned up one source for Graincourt completing a painting after 1753: a copy of Hyacinthe Rigaud's portrait of the Marechal de Tourville; the copy is said to have been made in 1780-82

However, even if 1699-1753 is wrong, google can't help me confirm that 1748-1823 is correct. Those dates don't seem to have any online source except Wikipedia and Wikipedia mirrors/copies. Plus, Graincourt paintings include people who died before 1748, such as François Louis de Rousselet, Marquis de Châteaurenault (1637-1716) and René Duguay-Trouin (1673-1736) – though I suppose those could also be copies of earlier paintings. I hope all this is enough info. Thanks! WikiJedits (talk) 15:02, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have found support for the 1748 birth date through google books. See here; likewise (with considerable overlap) for a year of death in 1823 [1]. I find no support for 1699 ([2]); hits are coincidental. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:55, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much. BTW, do you have access to the full versions of any of those books? While most simply give his dates in a one-line list-type entry, these two look like they might include some actual biographical text that we could use to expand the article – if we could access it.
1. Vivre et mourir à Saint-Etienne aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles‎ - Page 70 … Antoine Graincourt n'a pas laissé un souvenir important, selon les critiques « son dessin est ... Antoine Graincourt commence sa série de tableaux en 1780. ...

Hi WhisperToMe!
When you have received what you asked for in a request, here on WP:Resource exchange (and on the Reference desks), then it is a good thing if you put in a {{resolved}} as the first line just beneath the heading.
This both facilitates automated archiving AND it makes all the helpful people avoid wasting any time, instead letting them jump right to the other sections(requests) where their time and attention is needed.
In cases where you have put multiple resource requests under one heading and not all have been answered yet, then it is a good thing if you use strikeout on the parts of the request that have been answered. (Like DrPda did on part of your request above). It is done like this:
<S>3.Third part of my request.</S>
which results in: 3.Third part of my request.) :-)
P.S.
Generally it is best if (the work of) adding the {{resolved}} and the <S></S> is done by the one who gets the answer rather than by the one who gives it (or anyone else).
--Seren-dipper (talk) 16:45, 17 October 2010 (UTC) :-)[reply]
Aha, I see. From now on I will use "strikeout" when I get a fulfilled request on this page. Once I get the Lexington articles I will add "resolved." Thank you :) WhisperToMe (talk) 03:05, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hm, looks like a Google metadata error when scanned from the NYPL. Other volumes are PD-old, including Volume 5, so you might try giving googlebooks feedback (see the link at the bottom of their page). They may be able to just tweak the metadata and free it up. LeadSongDog come howl! 20:48, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It's a thought, but I'm in the UK and they do not/cannot give a hoot. The copyright laws are different and we're quite restricted in what we're allowed to see on Google Books cf what people in the US are allowed to see. I can see more than 3 or 4 lines of any Chemical Trade Journal - Sitush (talk) 21:45, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It looks like it should be available from Hathitrust to IP addresses in the US. They are very cautious about infringing non-US copyrights, blocking access to foreign origin material from 1869-1923 except to US users. In England, the original should be available at the BL (DSC Boston Spa), Newcastle University or Cambridge (check their catalogues for Volume 4). You may be able to get some wikipedian near there to do the legwork if it's not feasible for you. See WP:LIB. It was a weekly, so I think you are looking for one of the April 1889 issues based on the page numbers. Or you could seek out an editor with access to a major US library who can get it from Hathitrust. LeadSongDog come howl! 21:59, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that. Although I went to Cambridge Uni, I have already tried that particular route and got nowhere (so much for the "famed old boy network") I think I will have to find a receptive US editor. There must be one. Daft thing is, this is a bit speculative: because I can only see about 4 lines of the thing I am not sure how much of that which I cannot see is of use - but something in it will be. Talk about teasers! Thanks again for your help and advice. -Sitush (talk) 23:51, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sally Pero / Equalizers

Resolved

In a paper by Sidney Darlington it is mentioned that Sally Pero (nee Sally Pero Mead) may have been the first person to build an equalizer. I am trying to get a date for this which Darlington unfortunatley does not give. We are talking ATT here so the publication platform is likely the Bell System Technical Journal. If someone can find the index to this, please let me know when (or if) she published. The invention was in connection with submarine telegraph cables so the time-frame is early 20th century, maybe 1920ish. SpinningSpark 17:01, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Check http://crinklydoodle.com/bstj/papers.php . There are three papers by Sallie Pero Mead:
  • Wave Propagation Over Parallel Tubular Conductors: The Alternating Current Resistance (April 1925, Vol. IV, Issue 2, Page 327)
  • Phase Distortion and Phase Distortion Correction (April 1928, Vol. VII, Issue 2, Page 195)
  • Mutual Impedances of Parallel Wires (July 1935, Vol. XIV, Issue 3, Page 509)
--тнояsтеn 18:11, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The second one is the relevant subject. It seems to be a later development than the one Darlington describes judging by the abstract, but maybe she gives a date of the earlier device in the paper. SpinningSpark 23:52, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You do know that Who's Who is not a wp:RS, right? LeadSongDog come howl! 20:41, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't but would imagine that is so because entries are self-penned. However, this entry is about a company and as such would have the same weight as a trade directory plus, more importantly, it appears to have some information which I would then be able to cross-reference (dates, names, addresses etc. There is a major problem with a corporate history from about 1914 at W & J Galloway & Sons and this thing may kickstart filling in the gaps. - Sitush (talk) 21:00, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Update: I've read some of the RS Noticeboard discussions now. It s/b noted first of all that this is (a) a UK publication, not the US one, and (b) it is not "Who's Who". It is also not being requested for a biographical purpose at all, living person or otherwise. The consensus, as for example illustrated in this discussion, is that care needs to be taken but errors are usually of omission, which is not a problem for my requirements. I really want to nail this article, which I've developed more or less solo from pretty much a stub. It could be as good as Churchill Machine Tool Company, which is also primarily my work (although, as always, has benefited from much useful advice etc from other editors). - Sitush (talk) 21:21, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

SAGE Journals Online: Journal of Contemporary History, April 1972

Resolved

I've been trying to clean up citations in Benito Mussolini, and I found this citation:

"Mussolini's Cultural Revolution: Fascist or Nationalist?". jch.sagepub.com. 8 January 2008.

I looked up the URL, and found that it's not a journal article, it's not dated January 2008, and it's not accessible without a SAGE subscription (or a fee of $25 for one day of access, which I wouldn't expect anyone to pay). I restated the citation like this:

"Mussolini's Cultural Revolution: Fascist or Nationalist?". Journal of Contemporary History. 7 (3). SAGE Journals Online: 115–139. April 1972. doi:10.1177/002200947200700308. Retrieved 2011-03-23.(subscription required)

Correcting the citation template was easy. But can anyone confirm that the article text is in fact supported by the citation? The following text is from the Rome-Berlin relations section of the article:

With the assassination of Dollfuss, Mussolini attempted to distance himself from Hitler by rejecting much of the racialism (particularly Nordicism and Germanicism) and anti-Semitism espoused by the German radical. Mussolini during this period rejected biological racism, at least in the Nazi sense, and instead emphasized "Italianizing" the parts of the Italian Empire he had desired to build. He declared that the ideas of Eugenics and the racially charged concept of an Aryan nation were not possible.

Thanks a lot! That was really quick. All the links provided have been downloaded. I'll be watching to see if you have any luck with the "Tell me, be you a witch?" article. Thanks again, Deyyaz [ Talk | Contribs ] 04:20, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, looks like I'll have to get a scan of that last article, but I should have this within a week if not sooner. I glanced at the Semiotics Of Salem Witch Trials article, by the way, it reads like an essay at the moment. You're trying to rewrite it? GabrielF (talk) 04:26, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah. A new user created it yesterday and I didn't just want to slap a maintenance tag on it. I think it contains some salvageable info and there certainly seems to be some scholarship on the topic. I told the creating user on their talk page that I would be happy to help turn it into something that would conform to WP standards. Deyyaz [ Talk | Contribs ] 07:43, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Do you think you could send it to the e-mail address that is in the infobox on my user page? I've been trying to change the one in my preferences and have been having some difficulty. Thanks, Deyyaz [ Talk | Contribs ] 01:22, 28 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
