John Lovelady living persons bio
I would very much appreciate some help in finding how to help Jimmartin15 with reliable sources for John Lovelady's biography, as C.Fred has said he knows Mr. Lovelady in person, and has been in contact with the webmaster of a website with a section about Mr. Lovelady, but has had trouble finding if he can even include it without violating WP:COPYRIGHT. Many thanks, Zenvalharo (talk) 04:46, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Zenvalharo - I don't think Jimmartin15 can include the text of or a summary of the text of tgscoaster.com/cast/john-lovelady in Wikipedia since an "Original Fan Website Dedicated To The Great Space Coaster" probably does not meet WP:RS, even if WP:COPYRIGHT can be addressed. It is a good source to use to look for reliable sources. Some source to look at: New York Times pre-1981 search; ; March 13, 1992; November 5, 1995; August 4, 1989; March 18, 2013. -- Jreferee (talk) 19:58, 4 January 2014 (UTC)

Cook PVIs
I'm looking for a reliable source for 2010 Cook PVIs for U.S. House districts, i.e. those based on the 2004 and 2008 presidential elections and using the congressional districts that existed prior to redistricting mandated by the 2010 census (rather than those for the districts created after redistricting, which were first used in the 2012 elections). This archived page contains links to the data which presumably worked when it was published in April 2009, but no longer do (though perhaps they work for Cook subscribers)? The information is to be used in the state-by-state articles in Category:United States House of Representatives elections, 2010. – Arms &amp; Hearts (talk) 02:46, 8 January 2014 (UTC)


 * As an example, I believe that you are looking for an online source having a table that includes the 2010 Cook Partisan Voting Index for each of the seven districts mentioned in United States House of Representatives elections in Alabama, 2010, where the Cook Partisan Voting Index itself uses the 2004 and 2008 drawn districts for the 2010 Cook Partisan Voting Index. -- Jreferee (talk) 14:17, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Right. By way of comparison, here's the 2012 chart, which is based on the 2004 and 2008 presidential elections but uses the districts that came into effect in 2012 rather than those used in 2010. – Arms &amp; Hearts (talk) 04:14, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Federico Zeri visiting professorship
I am editting Federico Zeri. His Literary executioner write in bio he had been a visiting professor at Harvard and Columbia. I can't find a more objective source for exactly that. A 1966 report from Villa I Tatti put him as a guest there, but that means staying up to a month. A letter at Harvard Crimson, mentions he had a "lectureship" sometime before 1974. On a book, Christiane L. Joost-Gaugier mentions him as her first "mentor" in Harvard, where she studied from the late fifties to 1961.. What firmer Harvard (and Columbia) documents can be consulted? --trespassers william (talk) 21:28, 13 January 2014 (UTC)


 * The Dictionary of Art Historians, which appears to be RS, mentions that he was a visiting professor at Harvard and Columbia, but does not say when or give any other details. Perhaps some of the sources there cited would be helpful.  The school catalogs from the period likely would be primary resources, although those are probably available only at the schools themselves.  John M Baker (talk) 18:25, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine
A request at the Help Desk Wikipedia:Help_desk#In_WP_terms raised an issue of whether the language "Lord Curzon, who later succeeded as foreign secretary, wrote" was supported by the source or did the source support "Lord Curzon, a British cabinet member, wrote." The editor PLNR wrote: "Considering that at the time his view was a minority view, which was voted down, and later when he came into the position of foreign secretary, his view haven't effected the British policy in that regard. So basically it used to misleadingly imply that what he wrote had more significant impact that what it did." The language "Lord Curzon, who later succeeded as foreign secretary, wrote" is in the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine article and was added 29 November 2012. The cited reference was The Arabs page 174. The citation reference now is The Arabs pp. 172–175. Please look through pp. The Arabs 172–175 and revise the Lord Curzon sentence in the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine article to reflect a summary of that source. Thanks. -- Jreferee (talk) 14:23, 27 January 2014 (UTC)


 * The exact wording of the source (p175) is "Lord Curzon, who later succeeded Balfour as foreign secretary, wrote in a memorandum". The same emphasis appears in the source on page 188: "As Lord Curzon, who succeeded Balfour as foreign secretary in 1920, said openly in the House of Lords on 25 June 1929:".  So this way of characterising Curzon is supported by the source. Zerotalk 06:53, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Sterculia khasiana
I am looking for Debbarman's article about Sterculia khasiana In: Assam Forest Records. Botany. Calcutta, India 1: 5, t. 3. 1934 [Jul 1934] (as Stercula khasiana).

Verification of Japanese Wikipedia's source stating that the perpetrator in Sasebo Slashing having been diagnosed with Asperger syndrome
ISBN-13: 978-4062130417 

I mention this on the article's talk page:

Unfortunately, this book is out of print; while used sources are available, they are hard to have delivered (and expensive) when you live outside of Japan. Apparently, the editors at the Japanese Wikipedia are satisfied this source satisfies the statement that the perpetrator was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, but I am told that is not good enough for the English Wikipedia. The source appears to be reliable and of high-quality, written by an investigative journalist and published by Kodansha, a major Japanese publisher. An editor of the English Wikipedia would have to verify for themselves the source.

Hi there guys. I have no way here in Chile to access a book named "Geografía de El Salvador", published in 1986 by Dirección de Publicaciones, Ministerio de Cultura y Comunicaciones (of El Salvador).

 * There are several OCLC records for that work listed here. (The several variations in capitalization, hyphenation, and use of accents in both the title and the author name lead to distinct OCLC records, eventually these should get resolved by redirects to one merged master record, likely at .) It would seem that this work is distinct from the smaller related work he issued in 1992. Altogether there are only 107 libraries listed as holding the 1989 work, which marks it as a bit obscure. Even french-language law schools don't all hold it, but the largest ones seem to. I doubt if it is available in digital form (too old for born-digital, yet far too new for scanned PD).

Reculver
I'd be very grateful if someone would consult the following in connection with the article for Reculver:


 * Ward, D.J. (1978), The lower London Tertiary (Palaeocene) succession of Herne Bay, Kent, H.M.S.O, ISBN 978-0-11-884052-1

It's only 12 pages long I believe, so I think any scanning or photocopying of multiple pages might be an infringement of copyright...? If so, I just need page numbers to support the statements referenced "[115]" in the following quotation from the article: the statements concern a) the Thanet Sand Formation forming the base of cliffs in the Reculver and Herne Bay area, and b) the highest cliffs there having a cap of London Clay.

"Nearby Herne Bay is the type location for the Thanet Sand Formation, a fine-grained sand that can be clayey and glauconitic and is of Thanetian (late Paleocene) age.[114] It rests unconformably on the Chalk Group[114] and forms the base of the cliffs in the Reculver and Herne Bay area.[115] Above the Thanet Sand are the Upnor Formation, a medium sandstone,[116] and the sandy clays of the Harwich Formation at the Paleocene/Eocene boundary.[117] The highest cliffs, rising to a maximum height of about 115 feet (35 m) to the west of Reculver,[118] have a cap of London Clay,[115] a fine silty clay of Eocene age.[119]"

Italian source needs verifying
Hi, I am working on improving the Italian invasion of France article. An editor (who is quickly developing a bad reputation) has claimed that the below source states the following "Italy's limited incursion into south-eastern France had been, despite initial setbacks, relatively successful from a military, strategic and political point of view." (pulled from the article, so not a direct quote although considering some of this editors comments it maybe).

Source: Zamagni, V (ed), Come Pedere la Pace e Vincere la Guerra, Il Mulino, Bologna, 1997

I do not have access to this source and from what I have found online, using google translate, the intro states that the book is an economic history of the 1940s and 1950s with six essays from six different economic historians. The editor has refused to provide any additional information, and considering the editors problems and the fact that the majority of historians disagree with what the source apparently states, this information needs to be verified.

The editor claims that the above information is on page 53. If anyone has access to this source, can they please clarify:
 * If the above is actually stated on page 53
 * If so, why (what is the greater context)?
 * If so, which of the six historians actually makes this claim

News archive search requested and possibly Lexis/Westlaw for Minnesota Fats article
Google News Archive being useless, lo now these many, many months, is really painful. Regarding Minnesota Fats, a source I've come across writes that Wanderone actually sued Tevis and possibly Twentieth Century Fox, or vice versa, whereas most sources just state that a lawsuit was threatened. It says the "court battle made front page news across the nation for several weeks in 1962". I want the skinny on this lawsuit, if it existed, for the article. A newspaperarchive.com or similar search would be great, maybe pegging 1962 and using tevis wanderone as the search grist; a Lexis/Westlaw search would be great as well, especially if there's an opinion (though even if there was a lawsuit, it's not unlikely it never made it to the appellate level).--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:13, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm skeptical that there was a lawsuit brought by Rudolf or Rudolph Wanderone (our article and your source say "Rudolf," but the newspaper articles all seem to say "Rudolph"), the man who claimed that the fictional character "Minnesota Fats" was based on him. There was nothing relevant on Westlaw, although I wouldn't necessarily expect there to be even if a suit had been filed.  More to the point, searches of ProQuest Historical Newspapers and Newspaper Archive found a few articles, in 1961, 1962, and 1964, that referred to a suit brought by Wanderone, but these are just passing references, obviously based on statements by Wanderone and lacking basic information such as the court and the name of his lawyer.  A 1966 article, written under the assumption that Wanderone was the original Minnesota Fats, said, "When Gleason came out as Minnesota Fats, the genuine article cried foul and there was talk of law suits, but there also was a lot of free publicity and now things couldn't be better."  Clifton Terry, Minnesota Fats, Chicago Tribune (Jan. 2, 1966).  That sounds to me like the suit never got past the talking stage.  In any case, it's obviously untrue that the court battle made front page news across the nation in 1962.  If you want the articles, email me and I'll reply with PDFs.  John M Baker (talk) 13:14, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
 * @John M Baker:  Hey John. Got your message. A bit weird: I wrote a response to you here weeks ago and thought I saved it but obviously not – probably got a "loss of session data" message. Anyway, thanks for the searches! You've confirmed my suspicion that the outlier source got it wrong and that it was just threatened. I would have loved to see that lawsuit if it had been brought. Wanderone would have put on a three ring circus.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:42, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Hey John. Thank you for your help. I really appreciate it. A bit disappointing, though, that it turned out to be an SSDI listing rather than an obituary (after all, it was published by Union-News).  O s c a r L  00:26, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Oh, there was also an obituary, of sorts, in the Union-News, but there wasn't much to it, so I didn't think you would be interested. As I look at it, though, I see it states a different birth year, which would certainly be relevant to longevity research.  Here it is.  John M Baker (talk) 14:11, 19 June 2014 (UTC)

KoreAm article
I'm looking for an article dated August 2001 of KoreAm regarding the television pilot A Kitty Bobo Show. I'm working on an article for the pilot in my userspace, and apparently it was the subject of a report by the journal according to the San Francisco Chronicle. However, I can't for the life of me find any online archives of it, and I would like to examine the article for more specifics. I don't know the page title of the article in question, or, hell, even the specific issue it appears in. If anyone could identify and provide me with a scan of it, that would be much appreciated.

Associated Press or New York World Telegram from 1956
A quote from AP in 1956 is sourced in a number of articles and has been discussed at Talk:Expulsions_of_Egyptian_Jews_(1956). It is an important quote because it appears to contradict other public statements from the Egyptian government at the time (this was during the Suez Crisis). The secondary sources which provide reference to the primary newspaper sources are not themselves WP:RS, hence the need to review the newspaper articles.

The quote:
 * "all Jews are Zionists and enemies of the state"

The sources:
 * AP, (November 26, 1956)
 * New York World Telegram, (November 29, 1956)

Does anyone have searchable access to the archives for these sources? --Oncenawhile (talk) 19:13, 11 August 2014 (UTC)


 * I don't have access to the New York World Telegram or to the AP wire itself, but I do have access to archives of newspapers that frequently ran AP stories. None of the AP stories include this quotation, although there are AP stories about the expulsion of Egyptian Jews, which was big news at the time.  John M Baker (talk) 05:26, 14 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks John. Perhaps these archives are just not available. It would make a big difference to find the source because this quote is the only known support for the idea that the Egyptian government targeted Jews per se (i.e. rather than targeting British nationals, French nationals and Zionists, which is what other evidence suggests).

 * Excellent work, NQ--well found. Our ILL couldn't find them. (These were off prints? final drafts?) If you are ready for some more:

Got it straight from the Zeitschrift für Missionswissenschaft und Religionswissenschaft website. . As for these papers, sorry, I couldn't find anything online. I'll keep looking. - NQ (talk)  16:49, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

San Jose Mercury -- 1981 article
I need an as-yet unidentified article on page 45 of the October 30, 1981 issue of the San Jose Mercury. The author is Murray Frymer, and the article mentions runner Harold Abrahams and (presumably) the film Chariots of Fire. NOTE: I need the entire article, so if it jumps to or from another page, I need both sections/pages.

I cannot access the article from where I live, and the SJ Mercury digital archive only goes back to 1985.

Articles being improved: Harold Abrahams and Chariots of Fire. (This SJM article by Frymer was the sole source of a widespread internet rumor that Abrahams converted to Catholicism, a falsehood that perennially gets repeatedly placed in these articles, even though this rumor has been refuted by Abrahams' official biographer. I need to read the article to see what the heck it says and why.) Thanks so much magical wiki people!

 * Page 54 or 45? Here it mentions the article being on page 45. - NQ (talk)  18:09, 10 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Oops, you're absolutely right. And that online Jump Cut review/webpage is where the rumor started from. I will edit my request accordingly. Thanks for checking -- you are awesome! Softlavender (talk) 23:19, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

chromatography training
❌

Does anyone know where I may find some online training in HPLC chromatography? --67.98.26.252 (talk) 13:58, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
 * This isn't really the place to ask that. This notice board is for people editing wikipedia who are looking for specific reference materials to verify or add references. I think you want the general reference help desk: Reference desk and then pick the category from that page that most closely matches whatever HPLC chromatography is. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 14:45, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Hi Webstr01, This is your only edit to the project. Are you active elsewhere? Could you tell us which article you hope to improve with this resource? - NQ (talk)  09:22, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

In the Sea of Sterile Mountains
I dont have access to very many university databases. I found two book reviews for In the Sea of Sterile Mountains (this book has a Wikipedia article) and it is under AFD. Are there any other book reviews? --WhisperToMe (talk) 05:24, 29 December 2014 (UTC)


 * I've sent you another review from Books in Canada. - NQ  (talk)  13:27, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Argyreia nervosa seed constituent articles
I would like the following articles to add more details to the seed constituent section of Argyreia nervosa I've created. Various searches have been to no avail on finding these, and the amount of detail included by other papers citing them is minimal from what I can see.
 * Biswas, B., L. D. Tiwari, and S. Dutt. "Chemical composition of the fixed oil from the seeds of Argyreia speciosa." Indian Soap J 13 (1947): 51-4.
 * Batra, A., and B. K. Mehta. "Chromatographic analysis and antibacterial activity of the seed oil of Argyreia speciosa." Fitoterapia (1985).

Help would be much appreciated Erginomic (talk) 22:56, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
