IEEE paper on control data encoded in audio streams


I'm working on a project to improve Wikipedia with information about film technology, including accessibility features in film, special film technologies such as motion control and 4D film, and the preservation of the associated technical data along with the film. Some of this data is encoded inside the film's audio stream and then processed by an external decoder. This is a very specialized process for which I've had a hard time finding reliable, technical sources.

For Digital Cinema Package (and other related articles), I need additional technical sources regarding the packaging of external control data inside digital audio streams. Other examples of the work I've done so far on these topics include the D-Box & Accessibility sections of the DCP article, as well as D-Box Technologies, Accessibility, Hearing loss, Sign language, Brazilian Sign Language, Sign-language media, Movie theater, and Audio description.

I have an IEEE source I've been using for these article already which is open access (https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9161348), however I need an additional IEEE source which is not. I have tried several online resources, including through my local library & EBSCOhost, and I have not been able to find access for this publication. I had access to HighBeam previously, however that program was shut down. Is this paper available to Wikipedians through a library or research partner?

Thank you! —danhash (talk) 18:51, 27 November 2023 (UTC)


 * If you're willing to use the service, this paper is available on Sci-Hub... BhamBoi (talk) 07:32, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
 * only the abstract is on Sci-Hub —danhash (talk) 17:19, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I did a little more digging and checked multiple different places online, even through online library sources, and every one leads to a PDF that is ~15 pages long but almost completely blank, with only the first page having any text, which is just an abstract and a link to the document on the IEEE website. These standards must be available somewhere? —danhash (talk) 14:17, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

Material to confirm release date of "Gabriel Knight" video game
Hi, can anyone access this entire collection of archived |Sierra press releases from Sierra? If not, could you retrieve the specific press release found in this newspaper article titled (preferably dated) |"Supernatural software debuts" somewhere online? I need it to find the exact release date for The Beast Within: A Gabriel Knight Mystery.

Thanks, Venky64 (talk) 00:41, 26 December 2023 (UTC)


 * , here is a search queryon Archive.org with the game title and some publications. Period of release seems to be late-1995, early-1996, judging by the dates of magazines with either a review or a preview. KHR FolkMyth (talk) 03:36, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
 * The newspaper you linked to is dated 25 December 1995, and says "just announced the release to retailers". https://search.worldcat.org/title/38344600 and https://search.worldcat.org/title/34269048 just say 1995. It looks like the first link you provided has some extra gunk on the end; this one should work: https://archives.museumofplay.org/repositories/3/archival_objects/9118.

Likely available through Ebsco books or Proquest ebook central?


For Daniela Hammer-Tugendhat. Google books link has no preview. Ebook per worldcat is available from Ebsco, but pressing the link gives nothing, nor does a search from the Ebsco tab in the WP library. Also from VLeBooks, which requires an organization affiliation and ProQuest, but I can’t access it through direct links or find it on the tab in the WP library. I am specifically searching for what the family's life was like in Venezuela and Switzerland and this source seems to be the only published source that does not talk about "the house", which Daniela never lived in. This source looks promising as these two chapters are about Daniela's mother and her family. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Chinese book on Hong Kong paleontology


Would anyone be able to get at least this one chapter of this book? As far as I can tell it has only been published in Chinese and not English (I can read Chinese so the language isn't an issue). Though I have not been able to read it online, I do know where the physical copy can be found: according to the Hong Kong Public Libraries website, three libraries in Hong Kong have it, and I would get it myself if I didn't live on the other side of the planet. If anyone could get me access to at least this chapter I'd really appreciate it.

El Niño: histoire et géopolitique d'une bombe climatique
Greetings, has someone access to ? I need the chapters discussing Huaynaputina For Huaynaputina

Thanks, Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 17:30, 10 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Google Books has a preview and search results, but the search results don't have page numbers: https://www.google.com/books/edition/El_Ni%C3%B1o_histoire_et_g%C3%A9opolitique_d_une/oNLcEAAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=Huaynaputina, and this doesn't appear to be in HathiTrust: https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/ls?q1=%22histoire+et+g%C3%A9opolitique+d%27une+bombe+climatique%22&field1=ocr&a=srchls&ft=ft&lmt=ft
 * Here's what I've managed to extract, filtered down to what seems most relevant; the page number I put is just the first plausible number I see if I keep advancing forwards:
 * "[...] C'est le moment où le Petit Âge glaciaire atteint son apogée de froidure. Y concourent trois phénomènes refroidissant la planète : des super-éruptions volcaniques, du Huaynaputina (Pérou, 1600) au Mélébingóy (Philippines, 1641), envoient des aérosols soufrés dans la stratosphère ; [...]"
 * Solomon Ucko (talk) 16:36, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Does that mean that the blockquote is the only content mentioning Huaynaputina? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 10:58, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * According to Google Books, yes, but I'm not sure if I completely trust it. Unfortunately, the table of contents in the preview in https://www.librairie-gallimard.com/ebook/9782380944839-el-ni-o-histoire-et-geopolitique-d-une-bombe-climatique-laurent-testot-jean-michel-valantin/ shows that it probably doesn't have an index, though maybe the print edition does? I'm not sure where else to look, besides checking more random websites.
 * Solomon Ucko (talk) 15:01, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Seems to me like we'd have to rely on things other than Google Books and Hathi, then. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 09:04, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
 * What else, though? I'm having trouble finding a table of contents for the print edition to confirm if it has an index; according to e.g. https://www.sudoc.fr/272796506, it ends in the bibliography, which makes an index unlikely. Solomon Ucko (talk) 17:37, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Greetings, has someone access to I need the chapters discussing Samalas and 1257 For 1257 Samalas eruption

Thanks, Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 17:30, 10 January 2024 (UTC)


 * For me, searching Google Books (Samalas, 1257) gives me snippets but not page numbers. It looks like the last snippet is of the index, which lists only page 214 for Samalas. I don't have the page numbers, so I don't think I can request a scan, but I could request the whole book. Alternatively, I found a website that has an EPUB of the full book, but its legality is questionable, so I'm not going to link to it directly, but it's not hard to find.

 * Hi, and I apologise for the delay in getting back to you. I apreciate you looking at this, I know it's a tricky one... do have access to an ebook version, if I may ask? The reason being it would be easy for you to ctrl-f, but if only the physical version, well, I'm looking for anything relating to this chap, who died there. But without an index, you'd have to read the whole thing! An unacceptable demand on WP:VOL time, I agree :)  Are there any obvious chapter headings, such as 'The Irish at..'? If not, then I'm out of ideas. Sorry to be so vague—I was really relying on an index! Thanks again for any help you can give, but if not possible, it's completely understood.

 * , it is indeed in print, but here's what I found on the pages Sollyucko listed:
 * p. 27: nothing relevant
 * p. 178: "Monks (1985) señala cómo de los 13 irlandeses que cruzaron la frontera francesa junto con Frank Ryan el día 14 de diciembre, 6 de ellos habían caído en la batalla de Lopera: Frank Conroy, Anthony Fox, Leo Green, Michael May, Michael Nolan y Thomas Woods. El mismo Monks reconoce que tuvo suerte de ser sólo herido, al igual que Gerald Doran y John Goff."
 * p. 262: just an excerpt from Monks 1985 translated into Spanish (from "In the early morning of St. Stephen’s Day" to "got under the hives in groups to sleep").
 * p. 299: nothing relevant
 * p. 303: "Thomas Woods of Dublin" included without commentary on a list of people who died at Lopera
 * p. 348: lyrics of the song "Viva la Quinta Brigada" reprinted and translated (very literally...) into Spanish
 * That's all I have for you...not much to write home about, unfortunately. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 19:05, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
 * You're welcome, and happy Easter! BTW, on HathiTrust, I can't see any of the text (not even previews or snippets) of books that are copyrighted in the US and not CC-licensed, but I can search through any book they have for words or phrases to see which pages they occur on and how often, as in my screenshot at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WWewse5lRcswKVpONqFD_t8ixbSchVcn. Are you not able to do this? The website doesn't seem to mention anything about any kind of restrictions for this feature, and it works even when I'm not on my university's network, but I suppose it's possible it could be US-only?

The search option is here.

Their set-up seems to be that you can search and get results with no account. Then you can sign up for free and see biggish images of those results. But still too small to actually read so it's then of course that it has to become a paying subscription.Leastwise, I couldn't work out how to do it any other way.

Citations from old Art and living magazines
stale Hello. I'm trying to determine whether there are enough sources to save Richard Whitney (artist). At present the article has no citations at all, but it does quote from Town & Country (magazine) and Fine Art Connoisseur, though without detailed citations. The subject has provided me with more useful citations, but I can't find those articles online (I can find the issue of Fine Art Connoiseur in archive.com, but not the article). I can't see a resource in WP:LIBRARY that looks promising. I've put all the information I have in the citations: I realise it's incomplete, and I will be asking the subject for more info (see WP:HD). Anybody got access to either of these?



For Richard Whitney (artist)

Thanks, ColinFine (talk) 19:36, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

 * I have received a scan of the "The Fine Touch", but the only mention I see of Whitney is in a similar list: "As tempting as it is to highlight them, this highly selective survey bypasses the giants of the field whose work is so familiar to most readers: Among them are [...], and Richard Whitney. Having weathered the relatively lean years of the 1950s-80s, these huge talents have attained varying degrees of celebrity, inspired several generations of younger artists, and found their rightful places in museum collections. Several have been profiled in this magazine already, and others are scheduled for the months ahead." (p. 56) Solomon Ucko (talk) 17:09, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Here are some more sources I found that might be useful beyond a trivial mention; many of them are available publicly or though the Wikipedia Library; let me know if you can't access any of them and I'll see what I can do. I'm not sure to what extent they're independent of the subject and the Wikipedia page, though... Make sure to check the footer, since at least one of them says they copied text provided by him, without any editing or vetting.

Text and notes of Azeri and Persian/Iranian variants of tale type ATU 314, "Goldener"
stale
 * Azeri/Azerbaijani tales:

1.

2.

3.

For Adventures of a Boy (Azerbaijani folktale). The Hungarian language tales are translations of part of a collection made in the early-20th century by Henafi Zeynalli, and recently published as a joint work between Hungarian and Azeri scholars.


 * Persian/Iranian tales:


 * 4. Tales nr. 1 and 2.


 * 5.

For The Wonderful Sea-Horse (Iranian folktale), which was a tale provided by Masdi Galin Hanom. I already have a translated version printed in 1950 - which I will be going over -, but the German book contains the German translation (which I suppose is a more faithful translation of her tale) and notes by Ulrich Marzolph. Tale nr. 2 is another Iranian variant of tale type 314, but a summary cannot identify which is which.

 * I am not sure what you are specifically interested in, but to my mind comes the English translation of Sir Richard Burton's 1001 Nights. As a warning, it contains explicit material, so it should be handled with care. Many of the motives found in Eastern folklore, tales etc. can me found there. As a side note, was it Vladimir Propp, the Soviet folklorist, who gave numbers to various motifs encountered in European fairytales? Are you interested in any motif in particular?

Varieties and usage of kimchi
stale



For Kimchi. I've been looking for ages for this paper. The journal's online archives do not have this paper (page numbers for volume 6 only go up to 464). The journal does have an ISSN (1225-7060), but they've only had that since 2014. They have no doi for papers this old. I've checked koreascience.kr and DBpia to no avail.

Here are Google Scholar links to citations to this paper: "Variety and use of kimchi" (cited by 6), "Classification of kimchi and its use" (cited by 5), "Kinds and usage of Kimchi" (cited by 5), "The sorts and use of kimchi" (cited by 4), and "김치의 종류와 이용" (the original Korean name of the paper, cited by 26).

The best chance I think is if someone has access to the physical edition of volume 6 of 한국식생활문화학회지 (Journal of the Korean Society of Food Culture) and is able to find this paper and scan it.

Besanosaurus Article
stale



I've been working on the Besanosaurus article for a while now, and have seen this publication listed as important for this taxon in the literature (namely in Maisch, 2010); however, I have been unable to find any trace of it or its journal online beyond citations, so I unfortunately cannot give any further pointers on where a copy could be found. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could send me a copy of this, though I do recognize that it may be rather difficult to find.

Thanks, --Slate Weasel &#91;Talk - Contribs&#93; 16:38, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

 * You seem to be correct about that, thanks for tracking that down. I've adjusted the citation above accordingly. So it looks like some record of the publication beyond citations does exist, though in terms of copies I agree that nothing very official-looking is obvious on the internet. --Slate Weasel &#91;Talk - Contribs&#93; 17:31, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

Access to translations of Iranian tales of "Animal as Bridegroom" tale type
stale

1. *

2. *

In this case, I suspect the tale is an Iranian variant, since Mirza and Bibi are the names of the characters in other Iranian-language variants. Anna Rozenfeld was a Tajik Iranist, and in the "Preface" she might have indicated the source for the tale.

For The Snake-Prince Sleepy-Head.

This will be used to add a relevant citation in the C. D. Darlington article.
