Finding a source

Tips for finding a source yourself
Main page: WP:Find your source
  • Send a request to the author(s) of research papers for a copy of their paper by email
  • Check on Google Books, or your local library or national library may be able to obtain it through an interlibrary loan or subscription
  • Search Google Scholar for archived copies of journals in institutional repositories
  • Check whether your alma mater's library offers electronic document delivery services for alumni—many do, for a small fee

Note that sites like LibGen and Sci-Hub offer direct, free access to a very large range of publications, but there are legal questions around their use and neither the Wikimedia Foundation nor the Wikipedia community endorses them.

Making a request
  • A request may be an open question or you may ask for a specific journal, article or work
  • All kinds of sources are possible here: newspapers, magazine article, databases, encyclopedias, court decisions, laws, books, etc.
  • We cannot perform full book scans requests due to copyright
  • You may contact research helpers directly or make a request on this page
  • To receive email without disclosing your email address publicly, configure your email in Special:Preferences
  • Provide as much detail as possible: a full citation with author, title, publisher, and date or identifiers like DOI, ISBN ISSN, PMID, etc.
  • Once a request has been fulfilled add the {{Resolved}} template.
  • Filled requests are archived.
  • Requests unfilled after three months will be archived

Fulfilling a request

  • Anyone may offer advice and fulfill requests.
  • Indicate which part or parts of the request is being handled so others do not duplicate your work.
  • Notify (mention) the requester using {{ping|REQUESTER_USERNAME}}
  • You can point to a pre-existing electronic document by giving its URL ( http://... ). You can share scans of pages or documents using a file-sharing service, provided it is legal, or by emailing the content to the requester.
  • You can email a link or plain text to a requester using the Special:EmailUser feature but for attachments, you need to ask them to mail you first so you can reply.

Copyright tips:

  • Respect copyrights and terms of services of any online services you use.
  • Share content in a limited manner that is targeted at as few individuals as possible to achieve a specific improvement on Wikipedia. All content is shared under a presumed non-commercial, educational, fair use purpose in order to conduct research about topics on Wikipedia and/or to improve Wikipedia content.
  • Share copies privately rather than with a publicly accessible link whenever possible. Copyrighted articles from print publications or copies obtained through online databases should not be uploaded for unrestricted distribution via open websites. Preferably, do not share login access codes for entire websites; rather, share only an individual copy of a resource.
  • Remember that you take on the individual risk when sharing content, and act in a way that is comfortable and safe for you. Individual editors are solely responsible for sharing copyrighted content and assume all legal risks.

Nightclubbing, Nexis gives no author for #2-#4 and attributes #1 to Michael Cragg. Doesn't necessarily mean that there wasn't any author in the print edition for the others, but most of these are very small summaries/recommendations, so it may also be that they were part of a larger section by someone.

The Spectator 3rd December 1988

  • 3 Dec 1988, The Spectator Archive, archive.spectator.co.uk/issue/3rd-december-1988 containing " I much enjoyed Susan Hillmore's novella The Greenhouse (Collins/Harvill, £9.95) for its well-bedded flowery prose but I liked an equally ..."

For The Greenhouse (novel)

Thanks, GrahamHardy (talk) 22:49, 2 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a link to the review itself, with a bit more of it visible in the non-subscriber preview: [2]. Cheers, gnu57 23:13, 2 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The article seems not to be a full review, but merely Anthony Blond's entry in the Spectator's 'Books of the Year' feature, alongside the recommendations of other public intellectuals and literati. The full sentence about The Greenhouse is:

I much enjoyed Susan Hillmore's novella The Greenhouse (Collins/Harvill, £9.95) for its well-bedded flowery prose but I liked an equally properly written first novel, (which I also published), Marks of Weakness by Geraldine Jones (Anthony Blond/Quartet, £11.95) which only got one (good) review, from Isobel Quigly, who didn't like our jacket.

Blond goes on to say more about the Jones book and another by A. J. Ayer, but I doubt that the full text would be relevant to you. Cheers, gnu57 23:27, 2 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • The Independent: Praised the book as one of the "best books of 2000".
  • The Independent review (may be the same): quote: "Hillmore's writing is dense and dappled with colour and light--a novel of strange power."[3]
  • The Literary Review review: quote: "...Moving and poetic...The Greenhouse should be read for the beauty of its descriptions, its original vision, and its complete lack of vugarity, rare in a contemporary novel."[4]
  • Washington Times review: quote:"There is haunting beauty in this melancholy tale."[5]
  • A review by Geoffrey Bailey: quote: "the sad drama of a family lovingly watched over by the greenhouse"[6]

The Seattle Times archives: Newsbank

Per talk page discussions, it seems that Caroline Brady died in Bellevue Washington, on 5 November 1980. I have been unable to find anything resembling an obituary for her, perhaps hindered by the undercoverage of Washington newspapers on Newspapers.com and NewspaperArchive.com. The Seattle Public Library, however, has online access to a number of newspapers, including, with a library card, The Seattle Times (link). Does anyone have a library card, and if so, would you be willing to search through the archive to see if there is any coverage of Brady, particularly an obituary or death notice?

Reviews of Hermeneutics and the Human Sciences

Hello, I am looking for the text of three reviews of Hermeneutics and the Human Sciences. Note that in each case EBSCO provides only a listing of the review, not the text.

The first review is by Andrew Edgar. Publication details: Sociology. Aug82, Vol. 16 Issue 3, p461-463. ISSN: 0038-0385. DOI: 10.1177/0038038582016003017. There is a link to a portion of the review here.

The second review is by W. G. Regier. Publication details: MLN; December 1983, Vol. 98, Issue 5, p1312-1315, 4p. ("MLN" is an abbreviation for "Modern Language Notes") ISSN: 00267910. Accession Number: 509316057.

Battle of Noyers

Hi,

I have been improving the 59th (Staffordshire) Infantry Division, however there is very little information available regarding the division's actions during the Battle of Noyer, where the division suffered some heavy losses. The following sources discuss the fighting, although they are neither available online or only in snippet form. I have no local access to these sources, which appear would be be able to flesh out the article and detail the division's effort to capture Noyer. Is anyone able to provide the relevant pages from these sources, or directly edit the article with information from them?

@EnigmaMcmxc: Regarding #4, I found this at HathiTrust – vol. 1 is available for viewing in full. I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for. —Bruce1eetalk 23:34, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for the help you have provided thus far. Both of you. I have been able to greatly expand the article to give readers a fuller account of the division's activities. I will also check out the new email later today, which will join doubt also be of great benefit.EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 12:55, 12 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I don't have access to that source. Nikkimaria (talk) 11:26, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nikkimaria, err. I checked the history of Harmattan's page over French wiki and saw you dealing with the requests before it got shifted to the new platform......:-(
Can you lead to anyone, who has access? ∯WBGconverse 11:45, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
frwiki has a userbox for people with access which might help. Nikkimaria (talk) 11:55, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@WBG: I understand what you want, but am mystified by the discussion with Nikkimaria. Do you think TWL's deal with L'Harmattan includes the book? I'm disinclined to sign up just to find out, but then I'm not the one who wants the source. Have you tried signing up? --Worldbruce (talk) 22:22, 27 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Near-certainly.
I asked for help over the French-wiki where one ignored whilst the other two said that their subscriptions have long expired. (TWL ought to keep a list of users who have access to different sources.)
Consuming one subscription for accessing a single book is a bit selfish. ∯WBGconverse 13:08, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Help us help you. You can get the complete information by asking Google Books. Start on their page you linked. At the bottom, click "Report an issue". That brings up a "Contact us" form. Choose the last option, "I have a question or feedback about a book". Fill in the contact section, give them the page numbers 58-59, categorize your inquiry as "Other", and explain that you need the issue, date, article title, and author in order to request the article from the closed stacks of a library.

The second is the review by Boyd McDonald. It was published in the New York Native, 9/12/83, Issue 72, p40. Title: "Ba, Ka and Ca-ca".

The third is the review by Philip Kuberski. It was published in ELH. Volume 56, Issue 1, pp. 229-254. ISSN: 00138304. DOI: 10.2307/2873130. Title: "The metaphysics of postmodern death: Mailer's Ancient evenings and Merrill's The changing light at Sandover". There is a link to an extract from the review here.

Greetings, has someone access to these articles? For Paleotempestology

Don't think that the papers are published. ∯WBGconverse 13:04, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You sure? The abstracts certainly are. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 09:19, 11 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Jo-Jo Eumerus: I agree with WBG. Often papers presented at conferences are never published, although abstracts may be. That's particularly true when authors have put a topical spin (tropical spin?) on their work by mentioning Hurricane Katrina when it was on everyone's mind, but before much science could have been completed on it. The authors might, or might not, continue developing the work and eventually submit it to a peer reviewed journal, possibly years later and under a different title. At least that's my personal experience with academics and similar technical meetings. Liu, for example, doesn't list the paper on his profile,[10] but contributed a chapter to an encyclopedia the next year: Liu, K.B. (2007). "Paleotempestology". In Elias, S. (ed.). Encyclopedia of Quaternary Science. Elsevier. pp. 1974–1985. ISBN 9780080547824. See abstract here. --Worldbruce (talk) 01:00, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

question to user Sudiani about a Hollywood Reporter page 1 Superman movie article from December 28, 1978

question to user Sudiani

Hi, you helped me to ask a question to user Sudiani about a Hollywood Reporter page 1 article from December 28, 1978 and he answered:

I don't have a copy of the article/edition. The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts have the daily editions of The Hollywood Reporter for that period which is where I saw the information. If you are just interested in the Jaws II record, possibly Variety reported similar information when Superman came out and their back issues are available online.

I would like to answer thst and ask another question :

Thanks for your attention Sudiani. I actually want to know about Superman movie Christmas 1978 box office and Hollywood Reporter from December 27 and 28 ,1978 has such info ( I am a Variety subscriber and unfortunately it doesn't have this information from Hollywood Reporter that you saw.) As I live in Brazil, I would like a favor: one day,if you go again to The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts , can you please copy the text or photo the 'Superman' takes $3.2 mil one day December 28th 1978 article for me?? And see if the December 27 edition has more info? I would be so grateful... Regards.
