The Resource Request is where you can request information on a subject or request a specific article, if you lack a source for a Wikipedia article.

Skip to ↓ table of contents ↓   ↓ bottom of page ↓
Fixing references and common medical problems!
Warning: for legal reasons, we must note that the Resource Exchange cannot fix any medical problems. But it can fix references.

Making a request:

  • A request may be an open question for more information on a specific subject, or you may ask for a specific article or work where you have a reference but lack the full text. Someone may be able to help you.
  • All kinds of sources are possible here: any newspaper or magazine article, searches in a commercial full-text newspaper or journal databases, searches in academic journal databases, encyclopedia articles, court decisions, laws, academic publications or research results, biographies, etc.
  • Be aware that you are perfectly entitled to send a message to the [lead] author(s) of scientific research papers to ask for a copy of their paper directly.
  • If you are looking for a book, have you tried to access it from Google Books? (Be aware, however, that many books in Google Books cannot be entirely consulted online, and in many cases just a few pages can be accessed.) Your local library may also be able to acquire it through interlibrary loan.
  • To make a request, you may either contact directly one of the people who have listed themselves below under Direct contact or follow the procedure here for making a general request on this page.
  • To get email replies without disclosing your email address publicly, configure "My preferences, User profile, Email options".
  • Start a new section at the end of the 'New requests' section at the foot of this page and sign with your username (four tildes). Request specific titles, dates, or a combination of search keywords. You also may specify which database or work to search in. Add as much detail as possible as this speeds up the whole process. Try to provide a DOI for an electronic document or an ISBN for a book.
  • If you are requesting multiple sources, numbering them (1, 2, 3..) can help to keep the subsequent discussion clear.
  • Keep an eye on your request on this page to acknowledge questions and remarks promptly.
  • Once a request has been fulfilled, add a note to that effect to your request so that the work won't be duplicated by others. The {{Resolved}} template is appropriate. The request then will later be moved to the 'Filled requests' section.

Responding to a request

  • Anyone may offer advice and fulfill requests. People whose library provides access to a relevant database or to an extensive (academic) archive, or anyone who has a personal collection of resources is particularly well placed.
  • Edit any questions and replies into the relevant section of this page. Indicate which part or parts of the request you consider you have answered so others do not duplicate your work.
  • If you decide to transfer an electronic document to the requester this will normally be done either (a) by giving a URL ( http://... ) pointing to a web resource or (b) by email to the requester.
  • (a) Web document. Edit the URL into the relevant section. If the document is not already on a web server you may be able to upload it to one, provided it is legal for you to do so. Be sure to respect copyrights and terms of services of any online services you use. Copyrighted articles from print publications or copies obtained through online databases (e.g. JSTOR) may not be uploaded for unrestricted distribution via open websites.
  • (b) Email, particularly for sending a document as an attachment:
  • If you have configured a Wikipedia email address ("My preferences, User profile, Email options"), edit the relevant section on this page asking the requester to email you using "Email this user" so you may reply to them.
  • Alternatively, and provided the requester has configured a Wikipedia email address, by going to their user page and clicking "Email this user" you can send a text message (but not an attachment) which will give the requester your own email address. In your message ask the requester to reply so you will learn their email address. Edit the relevant section of this page to tell other people what you are doing. Reply to the requester's reply with a second message which includes the relevant attachment.

Rolling Stone Archives - Two Steps from the Blues

Hello,

I don't have access to the Rolling Stone archives, such as to the December 10, 2003 review, and the other May 30, 1969 review may be also helpful. Regards.--Tomcat (7) 12:03, 2 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

215; Two Steps From the Blues

Bobby Bland

BEAT GOES ON 1961

THIS COLLECTION OF THE blues singer's 1958-1961 singles was recorded after Bland had his tonsils removed and lost some of his upper register. The result — an even more stirring, guttural howl — is epitomized by "Little Boy Blue" and "Cry, Cry, Cry," which erase any distinction between blues and soul.

This appears to be a German-language journal. Your best bet might be to ask our counterparts at the German Wikipedia [2]. GabrielF (talk) 14:23, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Two questions: 1) How do I get to the German wikipedia and ask them and 2) Is their any way to get a German-language journal translated into English? I saw the abstract in English and I've seen papers do it in two languages before but in case it isn't I'd like to know if their is some way of doing that. TylerDurden8823 (talk) 16:32, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
On most Wikipedia pages, the bar to the left shows a list under "Languages" of links to similar articles in other languages. This page (Wikipedia:WikiProject_Resource_Exchange/Resource_Request) lists only one such link, to the German Wikipedia page (de:Wikipedia:Bibliotheksrecherche/Anfragen), labled simply as "Deutsch". While it is generally best to avoid posting on a wiki in languages other than they normally use, there is some flexibility for requests such as this, and English is widely understood.

Library Support

Greetings,

I'm searching for the following book on the Maoroccan Crisis of 1911: "Deutschland und England in Marokko und Tripolis unsere Politik in Gegenwart und Zukunft". Unfortunately it is not available in any library here in the UK. According to the Worldcat ([3]) the only copies that are still in existence are located in the US. To be specific the New York Public Library, the Harvard College Library and the Harvard Law School Library are still in possession of that book. I presume that this book in an old doctoral thesis. Since I'd like to know more about the author I was wondering whether there is someone around, who has access to the aforementioned libraries can spare 5 to 10 minutes to pick up a copy of that book and check whether there it contains a curriculum vitae of the author, as was customary back in that time. If that should be the case I'd be grateful if the person checking out the book could transcribe the curriculum vitae and post it here. Since the curricula vitae in doctoral theses were very brief (8 to 12 lines in a rather big typ-size on average) it really is just a matter of 2-3 minues to carry out the task - even if you do not understand the language. If it really is adoctoral thesis I'd furtheremore be interested into the text of the front-page ("Inaugural dissertation written by...") and into the brief info on the second an third page (normally 2 lines giving the names of the professors who were assigned to review the paper and a two-line dedication of the work such as "to my parents"). If anyone can help me - Thank you very much indeed in advance!R.J.K.O.83 (talk) 02:53, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Since this is your first Wikipedia edit, could you please clarify whether you you are looking for this source in order to write or edit a wikipedia article? GabrielF (talk) 03:12, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I have written Wikipedia articles before. However, since I am a semi-regular user and not too much of a technical aficinoado, I never bothered to register for a regular user-account. My interest regarding the aforementioned book is two-fold: For one thing I am interested in the matter for the sake of it. But I have also started an article on the author of the book, a man by the name of Axel Ripke who is probably most-notable for his role as a propagandist during World War I and as an early mentor of Joseph Goebbels. I hope that the article is adequate proof of the honourableness of my request and my readiness to incorporate any useable findings into the Wikipedia.R.J.K.O.83 (talk) 04:53, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

StageQ in WI State Journal

Resolved

Am trying to access any articles in the Wisconsin State Journal that mention a theater troupe called "StageQ" or "Stage Q" which will assist in establishing its notability. The newspaper's search page is here: http://madison.newspaperarchive.com/AdvanceSearch.aspx. A search of Stage Q within quotes between 1970 and 2012 returns 118 hits, which still seems like quite a lot for a community theatre group. But I'd need to see the hits to know for sure. Any help?

Kinda what I expected, thanks. Zad68 18:05, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
"Neither the press release nor the paper mention colloidal silver or any variation on that term." - I have already said, that saying silver and colloidal silver is almost the same, and in this article it is the same. With what stories the internet awash? Nobody tried to consume chunks of silver, right? The only form people have been consuming is cs. The word "colloidal" is generally a confusing one for the majority of the people. But it takes just one minute to read the wiki article on "colloidal" to understand that it doesn't make much difference. It is still makes a general definition. By saying "colloidal" you don't define what kind of silver, what molecule or atoms or any configuration of silver. So you may as well not to say it at all, as they have choosen to do in the article. In this case instead of saying "colloidal silver" they say "silver" and mean the same thing. Additional link: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/02/120202094700.htm. (I would like to point to "Story Source: The above story is reprinted from materials provided by University of Leeds.)
I have removed "resolved" tag, sorry if I'm not allowed to do that.
My questions are: Is that article mentions "silver"? And a second question, can it be considered as a colloidal silver? For the "colloidal silver" has two definitions:
a)Layperson definition: Any silver-based substance intended for ingestion or external application.
b)Scientific definition which means that silver should be microscopically evenly dispersed into another medium. (This definition stems from wiki article "colloidal".

I would like to point, that both definitions are general ones. They do not include the characterization of the type of silver being used, it's atomic or molecular structure. (All the silver intended for ingestion is essentially is a colloidal one, otherwise it would be just a piece of a silver.) So "silver", "colloidal silver" and "nano silver" mean absolutely the same thing. Its clear that in the press release when they use "silver" they don't mean "pieces of ordinary silver".

Radioactivity of the heavy elements

In Chinese article of francium hydroxide it is claimed that francium hydroxide is soluble in water(In English article of francium there is a similar claim using the same source says"Nearly all francium salts are water-soluble.") along with this source:Maddock, A. G. (1951). "Radioactivity of the heavy elements". Q. Rev., Chem. Soc. 3 (3): 270–314. doi:10.1039/QR9510500270., but I can't know from the abstract that if this article says anything about solubility of francium salts.--Inspector (talk) 07:52, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It says:
The element is the heaviest alkali metal and, as might be predicted, possesses very few characteristic co-deposition reactions; but it can be separated from other elements, cesium or rubidium being used as carrier, on the perchlorate, picrate, or phosphotungstate after removal of most other metals by the addition of sodium hydroxide and carbonate. Since nearly all francium salts are soluble and because its radiation characteristics are distinctive, the separation and estimation of the actinium-K has been proposed as a method of assaying actinium. (p. 280)
Is that solubility in water? Chemistry is definitely not my strong suit. --Atethnekos (DiscussionContributions) 09:54, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks after all. Are there any descriptions on how they arrived to this conclusion? Is it original research to apply it to a specific case, e.g to say that FrOH is soluble in water(it might be deduced otherwise by the solubility of other alkali metal hydroxides)?--Inspector (talk) 10:02, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
He writes nothing more on the matter and cites nothing. So you have to trust the author's word. Author: Dr. Alfred Maddock, DIC, MRSC, Sc.D., CTH, D.C., Louvain, [Cambridge University:] Assistant Director of Research in Radiochemistry, 1947–52, Lecturer in Organic and Inorganic Chemistry, 1953–62, Reader in Radiochemistry, 1962–84, Fellow and Emeritus Fellow of St Catharine’s College, 1959–2009. Paper from 1951.--Atethnekos (DiscussionContributions) 10:30, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
So, is it sufficiently a reliable source and significant enough for inclusion in article?--Inspector (talk) 11:55, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I would guess so. The only issue may be that research on the topic was poor before more recent times, such that those views are outdated. I would guess that research on solubility of salts would be well-established in the mid-20th century. However, as I said, I don't know chemistry, so that is just a guess. The author's credentials are impeccable, and the paper is written in a respectable journal. --Atethnekos (DiscussionContributions) 20:19, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You can't use a source saying "nearly all francium salts are soluble" to write in Wikipedia that francium hydroxide is soluble. It is obviously an example of original research. Somewhere out there is a suitable reference... Zerotalk 01:40, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Peter Viemeister's The Beale Treasure: History of a Mystery

Recently I have improved the Beale cipher article in Chinese wikipedia, and I am confused about some events mentioned in Simon Singh's The Code Book as I cannot find additional resources on internet to verify them and establish their importance. I guess Singh might have taken reference from Viemeister's book, so I would like to know if anyone have this book.

Some events mentioned in Simon Singh's The Code Book:

  1. "Among the most ardent treasure hunters attracted to the Beale ciphers were the Hart brothers, George and Clayton....One of the Harts’ tentative decipherments encouraged them to use dynamite to excavate a particular site; unfortunately, the resulting crater yielded no gold. Although Clayton Hart gave up in 1912, George continued working on the Beale ciphers until 1952"(p.90)
  2. "For example, there is a Cheyenne legend datingfrom around 1820 that tells of gold and silver being taken from the West and buried in eastern mountains."(p.93)
  3. Joseph Jancik, Marilyn Parsons and theri dog Muffin were found digging in Mountain View Church. They were fined $500 and taken custody.
  4. "[Carl] Hammer has been a prominent member of the Beale Cypher and Treasure Association, founded in the 1960s to encourage interest in the Beale mystery. Initially, the Association required that any member who discovered the treasure should shareit with the other members, but this obligation seemed to deter many Beale prospectors from joining, and so the Association soon dropped the condition." Well for this I found there do exist some infos that a "Beale Cypher Association" was established in 1968, and "Beale Cypher Association" is more commonly used name yields more google results. However, the association does not seem to have a website.

Seemed still some other are missing from that online pdf, so I will add more once I find my book.--Inspector (talk) 06:37, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The Singing Street by James TR Ritchie

For the article My Old Man's a Dustman, I'm trying to establish whether the popular playground version about a football match is older or more recent than Lonnie Donegan's hit version. In Google books, I am able to see a snippet from this book by Ritchie where a version of the football song (though titled "My Old Man's a Scaffie") is recorded. The book was published in 1964 (i.e. after Donegan's version) but I know that the author had been collecting playground songs since at least 1951. What I'd like to know, if anyone can access the text, is whether a date for the "Scaffie" version is given.

US Army WWII Field Manual

I would greatly appreciate if someone could provide a text of FM 23-85, 60-mm Mortar, M2. Any edition would do, but it seems to have never been released online, except for 1967 edition which covers another weapon. 1940 and 1942 editions seem to be available in a number of libraries. I'm writing a thorough article on this weapon, and the information from this manual would be crucial: in particular, at least the technical description, although the rest of the manual would be helpful too. --Saə (talk) 13:14, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, that's not it, the link references some FM 23-85, but otherwise describes only M19 mortar.

Canterbury/Kent maps 1840-6

I'm trying to figure out the exact location of the Beverley Ground, a cricket ground in Canterbury (UK) that was used between 1840 and 1846. Text sources describe it as "near the Cavalry barracks", which were to the south of the Sturry road west of Old Park Road. There seem to be several maps floating around either of Canterbury or more generally of Kent, eg J and C Walker's self-published map of Kent from 1843, or Felix Summerley's Handbook for the City of Canterbury: Its Historical Associations and Works of Art with Numerous Illustrations and a Map of the City (1843). There might also be something useful in Canterbury Cricket Week - An Authentic Narrative of the Origin and Career of the Institution. Vol I. 1839-1851 (Canterbury: William Davy, 1865), in particular the bit covering 1839-42 which is left out of later histories and which would cover how they came to move to the Beverley from the previous ground. --Le Deluge (talk) 03:02, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • This book (p59) says that Berverley Ground was the old name for the present St Lawrence Ground. Zerotalk 13:44, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yep, there's a couple of sources that are under that impression but there's no doubt that there was definitely a ground out on the Sturry Road, as the 1842 poster makes clear ("adjoining the Cavalry Barracks"). There's plenty of scope for confusion and let's just say that the less educated sources take full advantage of that scope.... Le Deluge (talk) 22:28, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What is this article all about?

I just find this news report about Jakob Bohr's theory on the size of fragments of objects being smashed[21], but apparently I do not have access to its full text. In a preview page[22] I see texts such as"...pieces between one-tenth of a gram and a gram will be 16 times greater still. The number 16 is the "scaling factor", which might have been misinterpreted by some Chinese sources I have seen. So I would like to know the context of this article.--朝鲜的轮子 (talk) 06:47, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The researchers have developed a new technique which allows them to reconstruct an object using only the weight and the distribution of the fragments created from an impact.

Hello, I'm working on the Szondi-Test ([24]), and to complete the test gallery of images, I'm missing two books that are in the public domain but have not been scanned/made available online. The five images are from:

  • Magnus Hirschfeld (1918) Sexualpathologie Band II, Sexuelle Zwischenstufen: Das männliche Weib und der weibliche Mann. The following images:
    • II. p. 171 Taf. VI
    • II. p. 105 Taf. IV
    • II. p. 145 Taf. V
    • II. p. 54 Abb. 5 Taf. II
  • Theodor Kirchhoff (1904) Der Gesichtsausdruck und seine Bahnen beim Gesunden und Kranken, besonders beim Geisteskranken

Viewing Full Census Records for the 1860 U.S. Census

Basically, I am trying to help verify this one case of a man who allegedly died at age 112 in 1967. Here is James M. "Uncle Jim" King's obituary: http://files.usgwarchives.net/la/franklin/obits/1960s/1967-06.txt. Basically, the Gerontology Research Group (GRG) verifies the ages of supercentenarians (people who are 110+ years old)-- http://www.grg.org/Adams/B2.HTM. Basically, for the 1860 U.S. Census, FamilySearch does not let you view the whole household in a particular U.S. Census form. In contrast, FamilySearch lets you view the whole household (all of the members of this household) on later U.S. Censuses. Here's an example:

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/VYT3-QNJ

James M King, "United States Census, 1940" Name: James M King Titles & Terms: Event: Census Event Year: 1940 Event Place: Police Jury Ward 8, Franklin, Louisiana, United States Gender: Male Age: 85 Marital Status: Widowed Race (Original): Race (Standardized): White Relationship to Head of Household (Original): Relationship to Head of Household (Standardized): Head Birthplace: Arkansas Estimated Birth Year: 1855 Residence in 1935: Same House Enumeration District Number: 21-26 Family Number: 8 Sheet Number and Letter: 1B Line Number: 41 NARA Publication Number: T627 NARA Roll Number: 1401 Digital Folder Number: 005454637 Image Number: 00763 Household Gender Age Birthplace Head James M King M 85 Arkansas Son George E King M 60 Louisiana Son-in-law A E Hynum M 58 Mississippi Daughter Lucy Hynum F 52 Louisiana Grandson Walter Hynum M 36 Louisiana

Does someone here already have a subscription to Ancestry.com or a similar website which allows one to look at the whole household in the 1860 U.S. Census? I think that the 1860 U.S. Census already recorded and enumerated all of the members of a particular household. I need some help in searching the 1860 U.S. Census, since finding an 1860 U.S. Census match for James M. King would be crucial in helping him get verified by the GRG. I was told that this place might be a good place to ask for help in regards to this. Thank you very much. Futurist110 (talk) 22:59, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have access to ancestry. I was able to find an entry for a JM King, age 26, in the 1880 Census. This is clearly the same person because he (1) was born in Arkansas around 1854 (2) lived in Franklin Parish, LA in 1880, as specified by the obituary, (3) has a son named George aged 1 year, which corresponds with the son named George aged 60 in the 1940 Census record. I've uploaded a PDF of the page here: [39]. I was not able to locate him definitively in the 1860 Census as there are several James Kings born about that date and none of them seem to be living in Independence County as of 1860. However, this is not unusual. If you know the names of his parents or siblings that would help me narrow it down. I hope this helps. GabrielF (talk) 19:02, 5 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much for your help and research. If this case is able to become pending (and eventually verified), I am perfectly willing to share credit with you in verifying this case. For the record, I already found his 1880 U.S. Census match, but we need to have a "solid" document from within the first 20 years of James M. King's life in order to make him pending and then eventually verified. I did a huge amount of research on him (you can Google "James M. King (1854?-1967?), 112?, WOP and previous oldest man ever?") in order to see all of my research on him which I posted on the 110 Club forum. Basically, I have not found an 1860 U.S. Census match for him, and while I did find a possible (and perhaps even likely) 1870 U.S. Census match for him, there is no "solid" information which states that he lived in Missouri in 1870 (though it is possible, but we need "solid" proof). Also, while he is listed with his (likely) brothers in the 1870 U.S. Census in Missouri, there is no "solid" document or newspaper article or anything like that which states that these two boys (William and Mack) are his brothers. Also, in 1870, he appears to be living with another family (the Gray family), but there is no "solid" piece of information which connects the King children to the Gray family. I was able to find some family information about him, but again, I'm not sure if this information is 100% correct/accurate, since it might (theoretically) only be based on hearsay and story-writing only after seeing certain U.S. Census documents/records.
Here are the sources of this info:
Basically, James M. King's parents' names appear to be:
  • Father: William Edward King (apparently born in Mississippi and died in 1864)
  • Mother: Annie Slaughter (apparently born in Mississippi and died in 1864)
Brothers:
  • John King b: BEF 1864 in Independence Co, Ark
  • William E. King b: 1852 or 1853 in Mississippi or Arkansas, died in 1916 in Franklin Parish, Louisiana
  • Early McCullough Edward (Mack) King b: 24 FEB 1856 in Independence Co, Ark, died in 1927 in Franklin Parish, Louisiana
Hopefully this info will be beneficial in regards to helping find more early-life information and/or early-life documents/records for James M. King. Keep in mind that James M. King might have been enumerated somewhere else other than where he was born in 1860. Futurist110 (talk) 22:22, 5 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Regular Force in the AFP don't accept Reservist as a Soldier cause reservist in the Philippines only good for Vigils and Med camp. aside from that Rescue operations done by the Reservist is not Credited to the reserve force but instead it goes to the Regular Force of the Armed Forces of the Philippines which is so unfair.

Okay I looked into this some more. No luck in Artstor or Camio, two big image databases. Is this the watercolor owned by Jean Bonna? It can be difficult to find high-quality images of works in private collections. Your best bet might be to get a physical copy of that book in Google Books, Raphael to Renoir: Drawings from the Collection of Jean Bonna, and scan it yourself. Luckily it is a catalog published by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, so it is widely available in many libraries and should be easy to get. Gamaliel (talk) 22:49, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that, it is the Bonna print. I'll try the screenshot. I'm UK-based, so I doubt if the catalogue will be so easily accessed here.

"The House at Loon Lake"

ISBN 0316119202 The town has been the setting for a couple of stories, including the children's fantasy book called The Enormous Egg by Oliver Butterworth, first published in 1956 but reissued years later (ISBN 0-316-11920-2). Freedom was also the setting for a 2001 broadcast of This American Life, entitled "The House at Loon Lake". That episode depicted an abandoned house explored by young boys, in town for summer camp at Loon Lake.

I am writing a fantasy children's story about a boys' summer camp loosely based on Camp Brandon for Boys for boys with incontinence problems and would like to read the episode of This American Life to avoid copyright infringement. The boys would be staying at Glennwood Lodge in Freedom, NH on Lake Ossipee. It would be built in an octagonal shape and the boys would be able to access the central treehouse via catwalks from their windows. They would talk and play games. Below the treehouse, they would be able to cook s'mores over an open fire. Their fishing poles would be abandoned as the fish blew raspberries at them and lived out their fishy lives at the bottom of the clear pure lake. Brief citation of the requested materials. --72.237.206.250 (talk) 17:17, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

W. D. Hogan, professional photographer at 56 Henry St, Dublin

To determine the copyright status of this photograph in its source country (Ireland), we need to know when the photographer died. We know that it is W. D. Hogan who was most prolific in the period 1920–1924 and who was a professional photographer. He worked until 1935 at 56 Henry St, Dublin. I was unable to find any traces of him after this year. The National Library of Ireland has a collection of photos of him but provides no life span (see here). There was recently an exhibition of some of his photographs in Dublin (see here and here) but his lifespan is nowhere mentioned. It would be very helpful if biographical databases, newspaper archives etc. could be recherched for his death date. As W. D. Hogan has taken a great number of unique historical photographs of the Irish War of Independence this would be helpful not just for this photograph that is currently under discussion but the entire collection. --AFBorchert (talk) 06:43, 20 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your best bet may be to contact the National Library of Ireland. There may be an archivist there who has worked with the collection and knows details of Hogan's life. Gamaliel (talk) 17:06, 20 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
A bit of poking around turns up this photo linked to the same Hogan; it's dated "circa 1947". It's the last one in the NLI's collection, suggesting:
a) he was still alive c. 1947 - too late for life+70
b) he probably didn't live much longer (no other photos)
Hope that helps... Andrew Gray (talk) 20:46, 20 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Roy Lichtenstein

In this book, published by the Museum of Modern Art, in 1987, by author "Bernice Rose", titled "The Drawings of Roy Lichtenstein", I am seeking confirmation of the sentence: "In effect he threw down the gauntlet, challenging the notion of originality as it prevailed at that time." I believe it can be found on page 17. I should mention that I have started two threads elsewhere on this topic, here and here. I pretty much have my confirmation, but if anyone can confirm those exact words in English, I can proceed to rely upon that source to support an assertion to that effect in an article. Thanks.

Oppenheimer, Clive (2011). Eruptions that Shook the World. Cambrige University Press. pp. 216–217

Resolved

Hello. Our Laacher See article uses this book as a source for saying "The magma opened a route to the surface which erupted for about ten hours, probably reaching a height of 35 kilometres." I want to change this to something that makes more sense (a mountain of magma 35 km high seems impossible). Can someone with access to the book check (a) if the number is correct and (b) if there is more context (eg the 35 km is measured from somewhere below the surface, perhaps.) I did check google books [81] but could not preview those pages. Thanks.-184.147.119.141 (talk) 13:56, 3 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ah well I'm not really in a position to do real-life stuff like that at the moment, partly due to the limitations of contemporary psychiatry hmm so hmm anyway I have now found a way online. Interestingly in the short 1929 article, he doesn't in fact use the term sociopath but does propose "socio-pathology" - meaning pathological group behaviour, most strikingly demonstrated in national motivations for war he says. In the 1930 article he talks about sociopathy as an individual or group issue which anyone can sometimes show, but does also define 'essential sociopaths' or for short sociopaths as those with a core mental disorder involving chronic anti-social motivation & behavior. He mentions Karl Birnbaum but doesn't cite him or credit him with coining the term so still not sure about that, maybe I'll try the German wiki.
