I'm using the gbooks preview of this as a ref in a draft article for air stripline but I can't get the author of chapter 16. That should be on page 543 (the chapter title page) but that is not available on preview. I'll probably be adding something from this book to the stripline article also and it would be good if I could properly cite it. SpinningSpark 01:23, 31 December 2016 (UTC)

A couple of pages from Essential Solitude
I would like a scan of a couple of pages of Essential Solitude: The Letters of H.P. Lovecraft and August Derleth (Hippocampus Books, 2008). I can see a quote on Google Books as follows: "Just had word of the revival of Astounding Stories (as a largely weird magazine) by Street & Smith. That sounds good! .... I knew that someone had bought it, one T. R. Foley, for $100.00 from the defunct Clayton outfit. He also bought Clues; this..." It seems to be on page 600; I would like enough surrounding information to be able to cite the source -- who wrote the letter and when.
This is for Astounding Stories, to include the information about Foley and the price of the sale, which I haven't seen in any other source. Thanks -- Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 23:52, 27 July 2016 (UTC)

Sputnik magazine, July 1970
I'm trying to find a copy of Sputnik, July 1970. It was a Soviet magazine similar to Reader's Digest, and was published by Novosti. Apparently it was published in a few languages; the English copy would be preferred, but any of them would be great.
It's only required for the article in it on the Spaceship Moon theory (not my word!). Apparently this article was titled "IS THE MOON THE CREATION OF INTELLIGENCE?" and was by Mikhail Vasin and Alexander Shcherbakov. We currently have an apparent copy of it hosted on a fringe site,[8] but obviously we can't treat that copy as reliable.
It's for use in Spaceship Moon Theory article. Cheers, Bromley86 (talk) 22:53, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
- It looks like the only worldcat libraries that hold the issue are Cornell and NYU. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:00, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
- The title of that magazine is short, so the ISSN number 0131-8748 may help searching the catalogs. I couldn't find any copies of issues that old (year 1970) in online catalogs though. – b_jonas 14:40, 9 October 2016 (UTC)
- The links above indicate that Cornell holds 1968-1977 and NYU holds 1967-1988, but no other worldcat library holds the issue. Many small or specialized libraries, such as those within museums, aren't on worldcat; so if someone knows a "Museum of Soviet Culture", or some such, that might be worth checking. Issues are occasionally offered on eBay, but I haven't seen July 1970 for sale. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:49, 9 October 2016 (UTC)

Request for page number of 2007 Beaufort Gazette article
{{Resolved}} A long time ago, I referenced a story from The Beaufort Gazette in 2007 Indy Japan 300, which I read via Google News. The story is titled "Kanaan bides time before earning win", and it ran on April 22, 2007, the day after the race. It was eventually pulled from Google News, before I got into the habit of including page numbers for Google News cites. While the citation is still verifiable, I know that it would be best to include the page number(s), which I cannot do as my former college's library does not have this South Carolina paper in any of its databases. If any of you can access archives for this paper, a page number for this article would be greatly appreciated; I don't need a copy of the article e-mailed, so hopefully this will be a little easier to action than most of your usual requests appear to be. Thanks for any help that you can provide. Giants2008 (Talk) 01:26, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Giants2008: The article was on page 6B, see [9]. Arguably more important than setting the page number would be setting
|agency=Associated Press
. With that knowledge, readers can find the identical (or nearly identical) full text of the story in many other newspapers, even though headlines may vary. --Worldbruce (talk) 00:32, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
- Awesome! I never even thought to check archive.is. Thanks for finding that. It surprises me that I didn't previously mention the AP in the cite, since I always try to add that information, but it's in the reference now along with the page number. Giants2008 (Talk) 15:33, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
h-parameters

- I don't have a full cite, only a snippet, its from Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, 1954, and the page I'm looking at is 725.
This came up concerning a proto article I have in sandbox for transfer function matrix (not yet posted).
