Film World

I need this page (p. 71 according to Google snippet) from Film World ISSN 0015-1475. It has information about Gujarati movie 'Liludi Dharti'. Also need proper citation details.

For new article on Gujarati wiki. Thanks, Gazal world (talk) 19:14, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Gazal world: Requested via MelCat. (I'm relieved I didn't need to attempt an ILL request with this utter paucity of bibliographic information.) In theory, I should have this to you quite soon: the University of Michigan is only about an hour from here. But I've never used MelCat before, and the article is, apparently, currently in "Remote Storage E", so we'll see what actually happens. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 19:02, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Gazal world: I doubt this will be any help to you. The "article" is actually just a photo caption, tacked on to an article about the state of film in East Germany. (I cannot find any mention of the film in the adjoining article.) I'll just transcribe the caption in full:

For the first time in India, a full-length feature film called 'Liludi Dharti', made in Gujarati language, was "shot" completely with ORWO colour film and the experiment has been hailed as a great success. The man behind the pioneering effort is cameraman Dhanik, who photographed the film in an impeccable manner. The photograph below shows Mr. J. M. Heider of the Trade Representation of G.D.R., in Bombay, congratulating cinematographer Dhanik (at right, back to the Camera), at a party hosted in his honour, while (at left) Mr. V. N. Bhatnagar of ORWO Pt. Ltd., and Mr. Prakash H. Jain of Jaisons National, the leading advertising agency, look on.

Apparently, copyrights for photographs in India expire 60 years after publication, so I can (try to) scan the photo for you if you want it to illustrate the article. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 18:42, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Compassionate727: Thank you very much for your efforts. I will add relevant details in the article. Can you provide me citation details including volume number and issue number. Copyrights in India expires 60 years after the death of author. But, still I would like to have that photo if it is not a matter of trouble. Otherwise leave that photo. Once again thanks. --Gazal world (talk) 18:52, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Gazal world: Unfortunately, and also quite bizarrely, Film World was (at least at this time) published without any identifying information whatever save for the title. The spine of the volume I am holding says: "Film World / Vol. 4 / 1968", which is more informative than the issues themselves. Judging by resets in the page numbering, the volume contains three "issues" (not identified as such, but basically what they are), and this article appears in the second one. The first issue doesn't even have a date on the cover, although the second two do; the issue containing this caption is dated "April-July 1968". All three issues also have what can, I guess, be considered the issue's title; the relevant issue is titled "Accent on Polish Cinema". That's literally all I can tell you.

Regarding the photograph, I see upon further research that the 2012 amendment to the copyright act of 1957 removed the exception from copyright terms of artistic works that the photograph originally had. So it is still under copyright, unless we can say it was published anonymously; I'm not comfortable enough in my understanding of copyright law to make that claim. It looks like I have the technical means to produce a scan of the photo (assuming I can get the page to lay flat, which may or may not be possible), but I'm not sure I should: I don't think it's possible to claim fair use, so what do you intend to do with it? —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 19:50, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I wanted to see if the photo could be used on Gujarati wiki, my native language wiki, under fair use. But no problem. Marking this thread as resolved. Thank you very much. --Gazal world (talk) 20:05, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Gazal world: Find out, and if you can, I'll (try to) scan it for you. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 20:13, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oh. Thanks. Please do so. --Gazal world (talk) 20:17, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Farang Rak Tham: Ah, Hell. So, my college's scanner doesn't have a large enough surface area to do double-page scan. This means I'm going to need to make roughly 60 single-page scans, half of which will be upside down, then print 60 one-page PDFs, and then scan them all again into a single file so that I'm not emailing you 60 PDFs. It's going to be a few days before I have time to complete this. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 15:34, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Farang Rak Tham: Well, I'll need to print and rescan half of them anyway just to correct the page orientation, so there's little reason not to do the other half and just combine them all. But that's not what I replied to say: I need to ask, are you trying to construct a historical or a religious narrative of Buddha's life? The reason I ask is that the first twenty pages of the roughly 70 or 80 I'll ultimately need to copy deal with Buddha's prior lives, which is information that will be valuable for the religious but not the historical narrative. The additional work to scan those pages will be quite little, so I'm happy to do it, but if that information will be completely useless to you, then I won't bother. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 19:22, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Compassionate727:, I just need the last life of the Buddha, not his previous lives; so just the "historical" part of his life. I hope I haven't made you confused.

@Coolak: An update on the progress of this request: my librarians say they have not been able to find a lender for these magazines; I'm not sure what kind of lender they mean by that statement, as they indicated that the next step would be to ask archives in the UK, which I have asked that they do. They didn't give any strong indication, but it sounds like they aren't particularly confident they'll be able to find all of these artices; whatever they do find will probably take three or four weeks for them to arrive. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 18:45, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Compassionate727: Thank you very much for your effort in any case. Coolak (talk) 20:27, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

1914 Daily Mail reference for 2nd Boer War

{{stale}} Tidying up references, and this one is missing an article title or similar. www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk returns snippets based on searches, but restricts full view.

I've tried various searches (like this) but have not found anything related to the citation.

Could anyone provide or fix?

Daily Mail. No. 5810. 16 November 1914. pp. 4 ff. ISSN 0307-7578. {{cite news}}: Missing or empty |title= (help)

~~The first page can be viewed here, it looks like, but I can't read it from the preview and don't have an account.~~ —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 15:14, 30 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, forgot to ping @Quuux:. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 13:34, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I just realized I was looking at the Daily Mirror, not the Daily Mail. Nevermind. This might help you, though. Not sure if they'll let you have a trial, but it's worth a shot. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 13:43, 4 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps OhanaUnited can help you obtain this article through the Daily Mail Historical Archive (U Toronto Libraries). — Pajz (talk) 10:04, 14 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Pajz, Compassionate727, and Quuux: I can't attest to the validity of information in newspaper back in 1914, but I should point out that there was an RfC on using Daily Mail as reference and concluded that it should generally not be used as a source on Wikipedia. OhanaUnited^{Talk page} 01:36, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Quuux and OhanaUnited: The RfC closure acknowledges that "the Daily Mail may have been more reliable historically", so I think we're to use our best judgement on this one. (Unfortunately, we can't form a judgement without the actual source!) The original citation employed this syntax: {{Daily Mail|issue=5810|supp=|startpage=4|date=16 November 1914|issn = 0307-7578}}; Template:Daily Mail is redlinked. When I check the page logs, I see nothing, which would suggest that this template never existed, but it would be highly unusual for an erroneous link to a template that never existed to have an empty parameter, as this happens when someone copies and pastes the skeleton parameters from the template's documentation. @Jo-Jo Eumerus: would you check whether or not this page ever existed, and if it did, paste the last stable version into my sandbox? There's a slim chance I'll able to glean some of the missing bibliographic info from the template's code. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 17:34, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Checked and didn't find anything. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 18:51, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that leaves us back at square one. Because it doesn't look like we're going to be able to fix the citation or verify that the source is reliable, I think the play is to remove it, which I have done for now. I'll leave this open though in case anyone does find it. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 21:10, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Armenia between Byzantium and the Sasanians

Could I get some goodies from "Armenia between Byzantium and the Sasanians" by Nina Garsoïan? I'm unable to find much about this book on the internet, let alone its sections, so can't point out what specific sections I would like unfortunately. Anyways, since this is quite the seminal work, if as much material from this book can be provided as possible (starting from page 1 that is), then that would be fantastic. --HistoryofIran (talk) 04:55, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@HistoryofIran: Do you have nothing except a title and an author? That's going to make finding this difficult: literally anything else you can provide would be helpful. —Compassionate727 ^(T·C) 18:14, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OCLC 493646768 It appears that the book is a collection of 12 essays by Garsoïan (in English and French) which had previously been printed elsewhere: see for example the five listed in this other book's bibliography. Cheers, gnu 57 18:34, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Compassionate727: @HistoryofIran: I am going to scan 'TOC', 'Index' & the 'Chapter 1'. Just borrowed the book from my library. --Gazal world (talk) 18:38, 18 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, you don't happen to know a reliable site (that is not Amazon) where I can buy the book as ebook/pdf? --HistoryofIran (talk) 00:26, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@HistoryofIran: Seems that the book is not available as an e-book anywhere. --Gazal world (talk) 14:09, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that sucks. Thanks anyways. --HistoryofIran (talk) 14:10, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Annie Mascarene article is a mess. Hoping this source can help.

Thanks, SusunW (talk) 20:55, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

SusunW, I don't have that article but I do have this one, would that be helpful? b uidhe 21:29, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Buidhe I can't see that article, so I have no idea. At this point, anything that is a RS will help. The article is weird ...it has search engine data pasted all through it. While working on another article, I ran across it, and it needs some help. So, if you can send anything, I'll be happy to review it. SusunW (talk) 21:55, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

SusunW, The title of the article is THE ROLE OF ANNIE MASCARENE, THE FREEDOM FIGHTER IN THE TRAVANCORE PRINCELY STATE. Please email for a pdf. b uidhe 22:07, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Buidhe that helped a lot. Found a couple other sources, deleted the huge copyio added in 2018 and all the weird search engine language. There was enough data in your source, salvageable from the existing article, and from a couple of other sources to rework the article, so I'm going to mark this {{Resolved}}.
