Accident report in ICAO Accident Digest
Does anyone have access to the ICAO Accident Digest, Circular 59-AN/54 (240-245)?

It may have information on the accident report of a 1958 crash of a French airliner. I was able to find the French translation online, but I would like to see the original English version. WhisperToMe (talk) 20:10, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * 26 December 1958, F-BGTZ, Salisbury (Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland)
 * It seems from this that someone at the University of Michigan might have library access. LeadSongDog come howl!  22:16, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Do you know anything about how the circular numbers work? My library seems to have many volumes of the ICAO circular from 1948-1988, but I'm a little confused about the volume numbering. Does anything in the catalog here |library/m/aleph|001458777 look like what you're looking for?GabrielF (talk) 18:33, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * It looks like HOLLIS HL0UAY is the volume he's after. The years 1959-1962 were Circulars 58-63. Somewhere in there should be the specific entry. I'd guess it is at volume 59, issue number 54, pages 240-245, but ymmv. The "AN" seems to designate that it is from the ICAO's "Air Navigation" bureau. LeadSongDog come howl!  21:03, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Do you think the slash in "	96a 765.8 1959/1962 (58/63)" means 58 through 63 and not 58 and 63? Through seems more likely to me but it's a bit confusing since I've never seen them use slashes like that before. GabrielF (talk) 21:16, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Could be. It looks as if the numbers only go up over time, so it may mean that during the years 1959 to 1962 they published issues 58 to 63, i.e. they followed an irregular publication schedule. You might try Hollis' "ask a librarian" function and give them the full "ICAO Accident Digest, Circular 59-AN/54 (240-245)". No doubt they could quickly eyeball HL0UAY and tell you if it contains that entry. LeadSongDog come howl!  21:52, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I submitted a question to the government documents librarians. Hopefully they'll be able to help or advise me on who to ask. Worst comes to worst I'll just order that volume and see what's in it :) GabrielF (talk) 22:20, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Anthony Burgess review of Cities of the Red Night

Livestock conservation
I'm looking for a couple of articles on livestock conservation:

This is a request transferred from de:WP:Bibliotheksrecherche/Anfragen. I would have ordered this book by myself for one of our editors, however it is not available in the German national library system. I would therefore have to order it from a foreign library for 20 € (still no comparison to the original price of this work). I would be very thankful if anyone were able to make a scan of this work. The editor who requested it is a highly productive author and the results of his work would also be a valuable basis for any English articles on this topic. I know this is a lot of work. I would return the favour at any time, please let me know when you need a paper or book from Germany. Best regards, Toter Alter Mann (talk) 23:59, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * It looks like my university's library system has this book but its marked as non-circulating for in-library use only. The book is 500+ pages so I don't think I'd be able to scan the whole thing. Are there particular section you'd be interested in? GabrielF (talk) 00:11, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

Peggy Sue Got Married
Greetings from Germany :) I'm expanding the german film article de:Peggy Sue hat geheiratet to an excellent level, but a lot of source material aren't available in my country or at google. I just need the Peggy Sue parts, not the hole books or papers. I would be also happy, if you also could find some references to themes like the connection between the songs and the movie, that the movie crew restored the Santa Rosa High Shool (because i couldn't find anything except the engl. wiki) and a serious reference, that Kathleen Turner replaced Debra Winger in Body Heat (because she also did it in Peggy Sue and Romancing the Stone). And I would appreciate additional source material i never thought of (interviews/scientific articles - the language doesn't matter) Just add the Information to my notices at de:Benutzer:Critican.kane/Spielwiese or send me an wiki-mail. And in the first place a BIG Thanks to everybody, who efforts to help me. (Sry, for my bad english :))

Public Law 86-90
I'm looking for an official (.gov) for the original text of Public Law 86-90 which was a proclamation by Eisenhower in 1959 establishing Captive Nations Week.Smallman12q (talk) 12:10, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Not sure about that but may be of some use, as may . I'm sure you're already aware of this collection. At this transcript of the 22 July 1959 Eisenhower press conference, it includes "Now, as far as the resolution about the captive nations, this was a resolution by the Congress, asked me to issue a proclamation, which I did; and asked the United States to conduct ceremonies in memory of the plight of such peoples. 1


 * 1 The Joint Resolution (S.J. Res. 111), designating the third week of July as "Captive Nations Week," is Public Law 86-90 (73 Stat. 212). On July 17 the President issued Proclamation 3303 "Captive Nations Week, 1959" (24 F.R. 5773), urging the people of the United States "to study the plight of the Soviet-dominated nations and to recommit themselves to the support of the just aspirations of the peoples of those captive nations.""


 * Accordingly, we might try a search for "73 Stat. 212" or "24 F.R. 5773". The former finds this book which has LBJ's consequent proclamations. It also finds which mentions it in passing under the title "Repealing the Cold War". Hope some of this helps.LeadSongDog  come howl!  23:25, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

I'm about to revamp the critical reception section for a An American Crime, a film that was released at Sundance and then on television several years ago. Consequently, there aren't a lot of reviews the way there would be for standard "wide release" films. One of the "top critics'" reviews is only available through subscription to the website. The article was written by Kirk Honeycutt; you can see a reference to its existence here, though they don't link to subscription only articles.

I've left a comment at worldcat that may lead to consolidation of the records, but in any case there are many libraries that seem to hold it.

The works at Gorton are intended for the manufacture of rails, bars, plates, tyres, and forgings of Bessemer steel. It is purposed to erect in them four pairs of 5-ton converters. The area inclosed by the walls is of a rectangular shape, adjoining on one side a line of railway from which two sidings lead into the large yard for storing raw material — this yard being 560 feet long and 180 feet wide.

This is said to be particularly effective when "white iron," or iron containing a small percentage of carbon, is worked in the converter. The supply of additional heat to the charge during the period of desilicatization maintains the mass in a state of sufficient fluidity until the combustion of the carbon contained in the iron itself is so far advanced as to require no further supply of heat.

The forge is not arranged with great regularity; in fact there is no design at all in its arrangement. It has grown up by successive additions and alteration, and the machineery and plant are not always in the most suitable relative position. The internal locomotion is, therefore, somewhat difficult and inconvenient. The most important object in this forge is a steam hammer of 16 tons head, and about 8 feet fall, constructed at a recent date by Mr. Haswell, of Vienna. The Neuberg Works in their entire extent, including mines and forests, employ about 1500 workmen...."

Changes in methods of manufacture, increased machinery, and increased plant, as they come into use one after the other, must be accommodated within a space already occupied, and subdivided by the existing arrangement of the works; and so it happens that the appearance of the majority of our great works is that of an agglomeration of buildings, machinery, and appliances of all kinds, strewed over an irregular..."

It is driven by a single-cylinder horizontal engine, by Messrs. Musgrave and Sons, fitted with very heavy gearing, and will produce plates up to 9 feet wide.

A mill for rolling weldless steel tyres is to occupy the space next to this mill, but it has not been laid down as yet. The quantity of rails turned out by the rail mill in regular working of ten hours daily is about 150 tons per week, and the plate mill is expected to produce 100 tons of plates per week.

Worldcat suggests that there is a fully copy not too far away from me but I simply cannot get to libraries at the moment.

I am interested in pages 122-126 and 212-216, specifically pages 124 and 214 (I need to get at least some context, hence the page ranges).

Cephalopoda
I wonder if anyone has access to any of the the following: It's not really that necessary, so no worries if not.--  Obsidi ♠ n   Soul   20:01, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Adam, W. 1939a. "Cephalopoda Part I. Le genre Sepioteuthis Blainville, 1824". Siboga-Expeditie, Monographie (Leiden, E.J. Brill). LVa: 1–33, 1 pl.
 * Adam, W. 1954. "Cephalopoda Part III. Céphalopodes a l’exclusion des genres Sepia, Sepiella et Sepioteuthis". Siboga-Expeditie, Monographie (Leiden, E.J. Brill). LVc: 123–193, 3 pls.
 * What sort of publications are these? Are LVa and LVc abbreviations, for journals or something? &mdash;innotata 20:06, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * The author is William Adam, a Belgian malacologist. LVa and LVc are 55a and 55c respectively. They're volume numbers as it is part of the Siboga-Expeditie series, a series of monographs on different taxa recovered from the Siboga Expedition. They're all published separately by E.J. Brill, I think. I've amended the original citations to make this clearer.


 * I think it's this entry in OpenLibrary.--  Obsidi ♠ n   Soul   20:44, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, and pl. and pls. are "plates", I assume.--  Obsidi ♠ n   Soul   20:58, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I can't get them here; there are only three copies listed on WorldCat (searching for "siboga 1939"/"siboga 1954" appears to get all the entries) of the first one, but more of the second. &mdash;innotata 21:58, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * It appears that LV denotes Monograph 55, "Cephalopoda", by Louis Joubin. Other monographs in the Siboga-Expeditie series can be seen here in the Biodiversity Heritage Library, also at this collection at the Internet Archive. It is apparent that the monographs are not in volume order. The back matter in each volume contains a list of earlier published monographs in the sequence. I've looked through several volumes, but didn't find the ones that contained monograph LVa or LVc. It may just be a matter of persistence. LeadSongDog come howl!  22:16, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't quite get the volume system, but the requested parts are from 1939 and 1954, and I think I can be fairly sure after looking through the listings that all of them on the Internet Archive/BHL are from before 1923 (out of copyright in the U.S.), and none of them are on Cephalopoda. &mdash;innotata 22:23, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * It is likely that Adam's publications are translations of earlier works in French by Joubin from the Siboga-Expiditie series, which seems to greatly predate Adam. LeadSongDog come howl!  23:41, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Adam's work is in French. :P He's Belgian, heh. It's definitely not a translation anyway from secondhand citations of it. The volumes may be "preallocated" based on the different collections from the Siboga Expedition. Anyway, I appreciate the efforts. I've already tried my google-fu on this and no luck. At this point I'm assuming it's likely to simply not be digitized yet.--  Obsidi ♠ n   Soul   23:49, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll put this on my list, for this weekend or the next. JanetteDoe (talk) 16:38, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Nah, but thanks. I found other sources verifying the info I wanted from these papers. It would have been nice to see what he actually said firsthand, but it's not necessary anymore. Don't want you guys to get into too much trouble, heh. I don't even know if what's in those papers are usable. But thanks again. :) --  Obsidi ♠ n   Soul   04:12, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

Israel Office of Information (or similar official name, maybe Government Press Division), "The Arabs in Israel", 1951.

This was an English language pamphlet published by the Israeli government. For a research project, I need to know whether a particular sentence appears in it, so please be in touch if you have access. Note that it must be the 1951 edition; I already checked the 1952 and later editions. It is hard to locate in WorldCat since the 1951 edition is not listed separately from the other editions which are much more common; please check local catalogues. Thanks. Zerotalk 10:02, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Could it possibly be this|library/m/aleph|005730431? It looks like a pamphlet published in 1951 with the same title.GabrielF (talk) 12:21, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, almost certainly that is it. I don't know exactly what appears on the cover except that it is the Israeli government.  The 1952 edition has "Israel, Office of Information", but it could be also "Israel, Government Press Division".  Zerotalk 21:29, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay, I've requested it. Do you want a scan or just a yes or no that a specific sentence is in it? GabrielF (talk) 21:33, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

I've been working on Raghnall mac Somhairle, who was the son of Somerled. They were 12th century kings seated on the western seaboard of Scotland.
 * The Origins and Ancestry of Somerled, by W.D.H. Sellar
 * Scoto-Norse Kings and the Reformed Religious Orders: Patterns of Monastic Patronage in Twelfth-Century Galloway and Argyll, by R.A. McDonald

Sellar's paper is widely cited on the family's origins and familial-connections. I think the McDonald paper will help with Raghnall, as he founded several monasteries and a nunnery in Argyll (that's pretty much all that is known of him). I've used Sellar and McDonald quite a bit in the article already, but I don't have access to these particular papers.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 10:16, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Obermeyer, Bothalia 13: 436-439 (1981) (This is a South African journal)
 * Chiarugi, Webbia 8: 33 (1951) (Italian journal)
 * The Anales (with various versions of serial title) is, also and . The latter has Hathitrust images that are searchable for v.24-25 1953-1954 and for v.25-26 1954-1955. Both those volumes have many hits when searched for "Matuda", or even for "Eizi Matuda", but none for Matsuda. I think the first author refers to es:Eizi Matuda, (a.k.a.

LeadSongDog come howl!  16:31, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I know who the authors are. What I am hoping is the bibliographical information for the articles concerned (or at least a mean to access them). The details for Bothalia are very much appreciated, but I am afraid Hathitrust, which is nearly completely search-only on my end, is virtually useless. Circéus (talk) 19:24, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
 * The more information we have, the faster we can find the articles, it's that simple. The Hathitrust hits tell us what the spelling used in the articles was, and also provides one way (of many) to find the oclc number.
 * I note that through the 1950's Chiarugi was editor of Webbia, so you've got a self-published source, if that matters. It looks like volume 8 is held in the Mertz Library of the New York Botanical Garden, someone might look for it there. Also held at Cornell University Library. As Cornell also holds the Annals volumes you seek, that might be the place to start. Those years of the Annals are also held at the Université de Montréal, as is Webbia V.8 if Cornell doesn't suit. LeadSongDog come howl!  20:16, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I did not think of checking with UdM for Webbia; I'm familiar with the libraries there (and knew they have the Anales), but the botanical one is REALLY not practical for me to get to (and I cannot work online there at all as I'm no longer a student), and I was hoping someone might be able to get the information more conveniently for everyone. Thanks for your help anyway. Guess I'll plan a trip there next time I have to go to Montreal. Circéus (talk) 22:18, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

Aryans and British India, Thomas R Trautmann
I am using the GBooks version of Aryans and British India' (2nd paperback edition, 2006, ISBN: 81-90-2272-1-1), here. I cannot see page 199 and (there is a well-known law for this) it would appear to be the most essential of the three pages I need. The relevant narrative starts on p. 198 and finishes on p. 200 - it is the page in the middle of this range that is blanked.

I can't find any other edition online, nor is there a copy in any library near to me. Can anyone see the "missing" page using GBooks elsewhere than in the UK?

Original publisher was University of California Press (1st edition: 1997); the version I am using is YODA Press (1st ed: 2004; 2nd ed: 2006). - Sitush (talk) 18:01, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

The Times
CorenSearchBot picked up duplication in Cognitive Tempo to The Times, but I can't view the page as it is for subscribers only. There's a possibility of a false positive, but I can't clear it without knowing. :/ Anybody here have access to the source? The page it is listed as matching is http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/health/, but I don't know if that link is to the specific page or to a section that updates daily. Not familiar with the way their website works! --Moonriddengirl (talk) 18:15, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Its hard to prove a negative, but I searched LexisNexis for the phrase "cognitive tempo" appearing in the Times since 2009 and found a couple of mentions (a derisive article about a proposal to add "cognitive tempo disorder" to the DSM and a few letters to the editor about that article) but nothing that seemed like it would be a copyvio. The phrase "Matching Familiar Figures Test" did not appear in the Times in that period. GabrielF (talk) 19:03, 18 December 2011 (UTC)


 * That page looks like one that updates daily, not of a specific article. However, I doubt that there is a copyvio—how did CorenSearchBot access that page without a password? Anyhow, I searched NewsBank ("Access U.K. & Ireland Newspapers" version) for "Cognitive Tempo", "MFFT", and "Matching Familiar Figures" (separately) in the past 30 days and found no hits.

The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, second edition
I need somebody who can look at the article on "Expressionism" by David Fanning in that work to compare it to the content dump here. The article has been tagged as a copyright violation, and I can't clear it or confirm it as I don't have access to the source. I believe the specific entry may be in volume 8. Any help would be appreciated! --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:45, 31 December 2011 (UTC)


 * (Cross-posted from Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Classical_music) It's not Fanning's article from the current New Grove. I'm comparing them right now and see no correlation.  To my eye it's someone's paper on musical expressionism, perhaps an advanced undergraduate or masters-level student.  Note all the grammatical errors, "it's", and other infelicities.  Using Google all I find are Wikipedia knockoffs, but it's been online for a long time.  It is possible that the posting anon wrote it for Wikipedia, although it is rare to see a slab of new text that size. Antandrus  (talk) 15:28, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

 * That would be James Riddick Partington. It looks like it would have been microfilmed in 2002 as part of the Harvard College Library preservation program. Perhaps someone with full HOLLIS access can delve deeper... LeadSongDog come howl!  18:25, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I've uploaded the file here. Do you know whether it is now in the public domain? I believe if it had been published in the US it would be, since it was published in 1923, but I don't know about the UK. If it is not in copyright, I'll upload it on archive.org. If it is in copyright, I'll take it down after you've downloaded. GabrielF (talk) 20:25, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I've got it. Will only use for citing and such.  I don't know the rights situation and would just nuke the public copy.TCO (Reviews needed) 20:48, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
 * It's copyright in the U.K. (the author died in 1965), and currently in the U.S., though it likely was public domain before the URAA, in which case it would be probably be copyright unconstitutionally—see Golan v. Holder. &mdash;innotata 16:58, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

Pigot's National & Commercial Directory 1832-1834
Hello, can anyone help me with a reference, and ideally text, for mention of stage coaching from the "Swan Inn" in Sturry, Kent, UK, to Herne Bay, Kent, in Pigot's National & Commercial Directory 1832-1834? Though, anything about this Swan Inn from Pigot's would be good. I was pointed to Pigot's after seeing it cited here. Thanks in advance. Nortonius (talk) 16:23, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Is that the sort of thing you were looking for? Google Books is your best bet.  Wee Curry Monster talk 16:33, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the rapid response! Yes, that would be exactly the kind of thing, terrific - except I searched Google Books before coming here, and drew a blank for Kent (i.e. the Swan Inn you found is in Worcestershire). Hm! Thanks anyway. Nortonius (talk) 17:11, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Ah sorry, I checked again and drew a blank for Kent. Has it ever changed its name?  Wee Curry Monster talk 22:54, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I think I may have an explanation. It looks like different editions of the directory had different counties in them. |library/m/aleph|007332212 This 1834 edition which is online does not have Kent. |library/m/aleph|004585373 This edition from 1839 has Kent but its not online. I could request the 1839 edition and scan the relevant page, but probably not until after the 1st of the year. GabrielF (talk) 23:17, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks again Wee Curry Monster, but no, it's been "Sturry" since at least the 7th century! And GabrielF, that makes sense. Getting a scan for me would be wonderfully kind, and early next year would be soon enough! Forgive me if I'm stating the obvious, but of course I'd be grateful too if a scan were accompanied by the usual publication details, since it's not online. I'll be keeping an eye out here in case you manage to do that for me. Lovely. Nortonius (talk) 23:54, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
 * GabrielF, do you still mean to "scan the relevant page" from the 1839 edition of Pigot's for me? I don't mean to be a pest, but gawd knows I find it all too easy to lose track of things over the Xmas-New Year holidays, and I wouldn't blame you if you had too! :) Cheers. Nortonius (talk) 15:31, 3 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Would Historical Directories 1750–1919 be of any help? I have never used this web site before so I am unable to determine how good it is. I attempted to search within Kent for Sturry and although it seemed to return 88 hits, I was unable to make sense of the first few. If you succeed in making sense of this site, do let me know, as this site may be a useful resource for my own articles --Senra (Talk) 15:18, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Senra, that is an excellent site and I have used it quite a bit. Linking is slightly tricky but it can be done to the PDF of a directory page once you have located it. - Sitush (talk) 15:40, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, it looks like that to me too! Thanks for the tip, though I've not yet found mention of coaching in the way the earlier suggestion did for an inn in Worcs.; and, I'm finding searching the site a right pain! Otherwise, very useful. Nortonius (talk) 16:13, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Nortonius - sorry for the delay. I requested the book from the depository and should scan it in the next couple of days. GabrielF (talk) 20:37, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah, that's great, thanks again GabrielF - hopefully, with a look at Pigot's, I'll be able to set stage coaches running through northern Kent again, if only in the world of WP! :) Nortonius (talk) 22:08, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I've scanned the sections on Canterbury and Herne's Bay in Pigot's 1939 edition covering Kent, Surrey and Sussex. The Canterbury entry includes Sturry. There is a Swan tavern listed in Sturry, but it is not listed as an Inn. There is a fairly long list of stagecoaches and vans, but no vans that go to Herne Bay seem to originate in Surrey as opposed to Canterbury. Here is the link: . Its a 31MB file, I chose to scan at high quality because the print is small and 19th-century quality.GabrielF (talk) 20:58, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks so much for the super duper scan GabrielF, you got that spot on! And for giving me your digest of what to look for! Dowloaded now with humble and heartfelt thanks. If you want to throw a job my way, that I might be able to help with, be my guest! Mark this one as done. Nortonius (talk) 00:36, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Sound on Sound - Petula Clark song
Hello,

has anybody access to this online article of the music magazine Sound on Sound? I'm from Germany and the German Wikipedia has no article for the popular Petula Clark song Downtown. Maybe it could help also the english article. Thanks in advance for your help and Merry Christmas! --César (talk) 14:55, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
