The Los Angeles Daily Journal articles for Draft:Allen Matkins Leck Gamble Mallory & Natsis

  • Armstrong, Jason W. (2011-02-23). "Riding the real estate roller coaster: an inside look at how Allen Matkins rode the industry's highs and lows and retained its leadership position". The Los Angeles Daily Journal. 124 (36). Daily Journal Corporation. ISSN 0362-5575.

For Draft:Allen Matkins Leck Gamble Mallory & Natsis.

If there are any other articles about Allen Matkins in The Los Angeles Daily Journal that are about the firm and not about any personnel changes, I would be grateful to receive them too.

This is a spam publication that engages in textbook churnalism, FWIW. ∯WBGconverse 14:40, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Are you saying that the publication is unreliable, or merely that it is insufficient to establish notability? —Compassionate727 (T·C) 18:21, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The latter, mostly. ∯WBGconverse 04:13, 16 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Cunard: I'm willing to request these sources via ILL, but before I make my college pay for them, I'd like to see your draft establish the subject's notability (which it currently doesn't). —Compassionate727 (T·C) 16:14, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Compassionate727 (talk · contribs), I rewrote the draft. These The Los Angeles Daily Journal articles will be useful to further expand and source the article. Thank you. Cunard (talk) 00:38, 24 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Cunard: Checked the first two sources, I'm satisfied with the notability. Requested the three, although they might not arrive before winter break. We'll see what happens. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 20:06, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Cunard: Please send me an email. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 11:30, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Done, thank you. Cunard (talk) 09:37, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Cunard: Yes Sent —Compassionate727 (T·C) 20:09, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I've received the sources and expanded the draft with them. A very useful piece of information in establishing notability from one of the articles was: Allen Matkins represented Blackstone Real Estate in Blackstone's $43 billion purchase of Equity Office Properties Trust (now called EQ Office). Thank you, Compassionate727 (talk · contribs)! Cunard (talk) 02:20, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Cunard: Great! I assume this can be marked as resolved? —Compassionate727 (T·C) 18:43, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

{{resolved}} Yes, this is resolved. Thank you again for your help, Compassionate727 (talk · contribs)! Cunard (talk) 10:06, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ruhollah Khomeini

Can I have following source:

  • Dabhoiwala, Faramerz (2013). The Origins of Sex: A History of the First Sexual Revolution. Oxford University Press. p. 145. ISBN 978-0199892419.

For Ruhollah Khomeini

Thanks, Saff V. (talk) 09:29, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Saff V.: I can see page 145 in this Google Book preview. It's the 2012 edition of the book, which matches the ISBN you list. Is 2013 correct? —Bruce1eetalk 09:39, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Un fortunetelly I can't see that page. I just am going to verify this sentence Ayatollah Khomeini affirmed in 1979 that the execution of homosexuals (as well as prostitutes and adulterers) was justified in a moral society as the amputation of the gangrenous flesh of the article which had been sourced by this book.Saff V. (talk) 09:52, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Saff V.: Page 145 (of the 2012 edition) doesn't mention Khomeini; I've also searched the book for that sentence you quote, and I can't find that either. Google Books don't list a 2013 edition of this book, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. —Bruce1eetalk 10:06, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I really appreciate your favor.Saff V. (talk) 10:39, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Saff V.: The 2012 edition of this book is also available on Internet Archive. --Gazal world (talk) 10:44, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, but this one isnot included the mentioned senteceSaff V. (talk) 11:09, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Saff V.: Here is the page you're looking for on Google Books: https://books.google.com/books?id=RPeHfW5WLeQC&pg=PA90 . I don't know why this version talks about Khomeini and the others don't: the ISBN is the same. Cheers, gnu57 20:04, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I really appreciate you, It is an interesting point, why?!Saff V. (talk) 05:53, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Saff V.: It is odd indeed. The they are two different books in Google's database; when I check the bibliographic information at the bottom, I see that the version which lacks the information is an illustrated edition. It's interesting that the ISBNs listed in both version's publication info pages are the same, but Google reports different ones in its metadata at the bottom of the home page for each; I'd go with Google on this one, although I have no idea where they go their ISBNs from. Maybe directly from the publisher? I assume the duplication within the two books is an error, probably caused by copying that page from one edition to the next and then forgetting to change the ISBN along with the other info.
In any case do many make sure you update your citation, as we verified the info to page 90, not page 145. (Plus the year is different.) —Compassionate727 (T·C) 17:17, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey all. Is anyone able to access the following?

Korte, Barbara, '"As Cunning as a Fox Who's Just Been Appointed Professor of Cunning at Oxford University": Blackadder (1983—1989) as a Picaresque of the National Past’, in Christoph Ehland and Robert Faien (eds), Das Paradigma des Pikaresken/The Paradigm of the Picaresque (University of Heidelberg Press, 2007), 375—387. ISBN 978-3825353483

For a potential article, Cultural references to Blackadder (or something like that). Many thanks in advance if this is possible! ——SN54129 15:25, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Judging from OCLC 180147441, this is commonly held in Germany and Switzerland. Pajz, might you be able to help with this? —Compassionate727 (T·C) 14:28, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I've requested it (along with a few other items on this page) and will likely be able to scan it on Monday. — Pajz (talk) 18:53, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Serial Number 54129, sent. — Pajz (talk) 19:15, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Pajz: I'm eally sorry this dropped off my radar, but thanks very much as ever for going to the trouble, and apologies for the belated acknowledgement. Cheers! ——SN54129 16:33, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Henry Darcy, not Henri (onepetro journal, 1956)

For Henry Darcy, where I wish to add a sentence about his first name. A couple of places give the first name as the French spelling Henri: this contemporary memoir of his has "Henri" in the refs, and Britannica plus this article title in a hydrology journal have "Henri". According to that self-published source the requested ref (a biography of HD) contains a school photograph with the "Henry" spelling, which would clear it up.

I do not necessarily need the pdf, a confirmation of the photograph with "Henry" and a quote of the key passage in the article if the name is discussed would be enough.

Thanks, TigraanClick here to contact me 09:56, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Tigraan: On page 12 (the first page in the source) it states, "Henri Philibert Gaspard Darcy was born June 10, 1803, in the city of Dijon, chief town in the Department of Cote d'Or and former capital of the old Duchy of Burgundy". Seems to be the same person. A footnote on the same page states, "Darcy's given n am e : the French spelling is Henri; the Ang li-cized v e r sion is Henry . The Secretar y of t he City of D ijon has b een asked what his official birth record shows, but his reply has not been received. An early photograph (1821) carried the name .. Henry," a s does the title page of at least one of his books. His journal articles simply carry the name HM. Darcy," Al necrological articles and obituaries in French, as well as the Library of Congress catalogue. carry the name "DARCY (Henri-Philibert-Gaspard)." At this time we conclude that Darcy himself preferred and used the Anglicized spelling". buidhe 15:58, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I would not say it has become a whole lot clearer, but I will find a workable sentence. Thanks! TigraanClick here to contact me 11:34, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
