Bruce1ee, I don't see that article (even though I'm supposed to have access to the Spokesman-Review from the period, but apparently the database's coverage is spotty), but Dave Ferman's piece also appeared in other newspapers; would you like one of those? John M Baker (talk) 15:32, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Bruce1ee, the article has been emailed. It's from the Mobile Register and has the title "B.B. King and Eric get it together, almost" (June 16, 2018). Apparently Ferman was a writer for Knight Ridder. John M Baker (talk) 16:33, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I need the page numbers containing information on Then Nilavu (1961). The pages are visible on Google Books (just type the film's name) but not their numbers. --Kailash29792(talk) 04:23, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Doing... Well, Google Books only has an electronic version of the book for ebook readers, hence no page numbers. I've requested the book via interlibrary loan. — Pajz (talk) 14:29, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Kailash29792, the "pages" are not visible to me. I can see one hit (a paragraph starting with "Thereafter, in this breezy romantic comedy ..."); that paragraph is on page 93 in the book (Title: Bonding ... : a memoir / Vyjayantimala Bali with Jyoti Sabharwal, Author: Vyjayantimala, 1933-, Edition: 1. publ., Published: New Delhi : Stellar Publ., 2007, Extent: XIII, 409 S. : Ill. ; 25 cm, ISBN: 978-81-904559-1-6). — Pajz (talk) 20:15, 2 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Pajz. Is the information contained on a single page or continues on page 94? The incident which mentions Vyjayantimala almost drowning. Kailash29792(talk) 03:24, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Kailash29792, since you say you can read it on Google Books, can't you just give me the beginnings of the paragraphs you are interested in? Anyway, and maybe that answers it: The "Thereafter, in this breezy romantic comedy ..." paragraph starts and ends on page 93; the paragraph immediately following that one ("I fell headling into the lake ...") starts on 93, then continues on page 96 with "Bombay. It was getting serious and ...". It also ends on page 96 ("So, there's a price tag to earning glory"). — Pajz (talk) 10:14, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know the page number but I'm after an article entitled Legal Advice sought by East Rand - Union will fight league plan tooth and nail that was published in The Rand Daily Mail on 23 January 1957. It's for a putative article about South African rugby league players and the bans they faced on returning home.

For Yeomanry Cavalry, currently at FAC. The article cites page 5 & 10 of the above source for the statement "On 2 April 1820, the Stirlingshire Yeomanry was called out during the Radical War – a week of strikes and unrest in Scotland – and three days later its Kilsyth Troop assisted the regular army's 10th Hussars in the arrest of 18 Radicals at the 'Battle of Bonnymuir'." I sourced this from a copy of the document published on the balfronheritage.org.uk website, to where the title above is linked. Given the high standard required at FAC, I would prefer that the statement be sourced only to the Journal of the Society for Army Historical Research as held in JSTOR. I have limited free access to JSTOR, and it does not allow me to view this publication. Would someone with full JSTOR access be able to help me? I believe the pagination is different between the two copies, so I need the page numbers from the Journal of the Society for Army Historical Research document that supports the above statement (I doubt that they are 5 & 10 as found in the balfronheritage version).

@Factotem: If HathTrust is right, the Stirlingshire Yeomanry cite is page 24 "The request for calling out the Stirlingshire Yeomanry Cavalry" and the is page. 105 "For the Stirlingshire Yeomanry, the capture of 18 rebels".

British Army Pamphlet on "Folding Boat Equipment"[edit]
((stale))
Can anyone provide me with a copy of the British pre-World War II pamphlet Military Engineering Volume III Part II Folding Boat Equipment (both FBE Mark II or III versions of the pamphlet would be useful.) The FBE Mark II pamphlet is of 1930s vintage and out of Crown copyright. AshLin (talk) 08:05, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
AshLin, can you give the full bibliographic information for each of those? I'm a bit confused by the difference between "FBE Mark II or III"; are these different volumes and/or parts? --Usernameunique (talk) 21:47, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the response, separate training pamphlets were issued for successive versions of FBE, i.e. Mark II and Mark III when the equipment was introduced. I don't know exactly how the bibliographic information would be represented but it would be something like...
War Office (author) (1945). Military Engineering Volume III Part II. Equipment Bridges (Excluding Bailey). Pamphlet No 13. Folding Boat Equipment Mark III. (1945) War Office (publisher). London.
The phrase "Military Engineering Volume III Part II. Equipment Bridges (Excluding Bailey)" would remain same for this series, which comprises pamphlets on all equipment bridges (excluding Bailey Bridge), with the FBE pamphlets always being numbered "Pamphlet No 13". Other bridging equipment would have different pamphlet numbers. All reissues of pamphlets on Folding Boar Equipment would continue to have same pamphlet number, i.e. 13, but would have different year of publication & the titles could also be modified, for example, the predecessor pamphlet to this pamphlet above was...
War Office (author) (1941). Military Engineering Volume III Part II. Equipment Bridges (Excluding Bailey). Pamphlet No 13. Provisional handbook forFolding Boat Equipment. (1941) War Office (publisher). London.

@PaleoGeekSquared: This wasn't an actual paper; it was an abstract of a paper presented at a conference. We would need the name of the final published version of the paper in order to find it for you, or if it wasn't published, you'd likely need to contact the author directly to see if they can provide you with a working paper copy. ~ Rob13Talk 22:01, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
PaleoGeekSquared, could you try to review the citation? This reads like an abstract to me ("Program and Abstracts", so perhaps from a conference program), not like a "scientific paper". At any rate, the article/abstract did not appear on p. 78 of the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology (2014), which I'm looking at right now. — Pajz (talk) 22:05, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to get the text of the section about Kenny Clarke from Drummin' Men: The Heartbeat of Jazz: The Bebop Years, so I can straighten some things out in my attempt to rewrite his article. The Google Books result (which is listed with the wrong title) that led me to this book was this one, which I can't read with my screen reader. I don't know exactly which page range I'd need, but any pages around there talking about Clarke would be good. I don't need the entire chapter as it seems to discuss the lives of several people.

Yes, I am working on it. Meanwhile, anyone who has an access to the Oxford University Press are free to fulfill this request. --Gazal world (talk) 18:45, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I could scan it from the print edition and then OCR it, so that would be a way to get this done, but if I'm understanding you correctly you're working on perhaps getting hold of an "original" PDF version - which, I suppose, would be the best option to use with a screenreader. So I guess it makes sense for me to wait a few days and see if anyone can come up with a digital version. I've meanwhile placed a hold on the volume. — Pajz (talk) 03:12, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Graham87, it appears that you can borrow the book for free through the Internet Archive: https://archive.org/details/drumminmenheartb00kora_1. There is also an "ENCRYPTED DAISY" download option for print-disabled users, which might me of interest to you. Would that be an option? Best, — Pajz (talk) 03:16, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
In my opinion, Internet Archives has two old edition (1990, 2002), and Graham wants 2004 edition. The 2004 edition is available on Oxford, but my subscription dosen't cover it. So, I have requested to another editor to get a copy.--Gazal world (talk) 03:49, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Gazal world, the Google Book link in the request points to the 2002 print edition (see page iv) - ISBN 0-19-514812-6 -, therefore I assume that is what is being requested. — Pajz (talk) 04:00, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I also sent him the same edition, which has an entry about Kenny Clarke. But as Graham told me in E-mail, he needs 2004 edition.--Gazal world (talk) 04:11, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think such an edition exists. It's very common that you have a print edition and then there is all sorts of electronic versions (or identical reprints) that follow in the years after the print publication (which is likely why Google's metadata says it's from 2004, but when you look at the actual images you see you're really looking at the 2002 print edition). In addition, the British Library catalogue only lists a 2002 edition. So as I see it there is really not much point in looking for a separate 2004 edition if you already have the 2002 one. Best, — Pajz (talk) 04:33, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Pajz and Gazal: The Google Books snippet I get reads: "Clarke found a father figure, Mr. Moore, a teacher of music who played all the instruments. ... Clarke soon found himself in a foster home with the Dunsmore family, where he remained until he ... Kenny Clarke with tenor saxophonist Zoot Sims." Searching various parts of that text reveals other snippets that would be useful for straightening things out. None of this text is in my addition. Graham87 05:16, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Graham87, yes, an e-book version. I stand by what I said; you often have myriads of ebook "editions", but it's really all the same document (this one hosted by EBSCO). If neither of the relevant national libraries (in this case, Library of Congress and British Library) have a later version than the 2002 one in their catalog, odds are it just doesn't exist - either because the book was reprinted in 2004 without any modifications (but then it would be irrelevant which copy you use for the article), or because the later versions are merely ebook reproductions by different providers. Best, — Pajz (talk) 06:00, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Pajz and Gazal world: Sorry, I've finally realised what happened. I saved the PDF file that Gazal world sent me to text using Adobe Reader's inbuilt feature for doing this, which probably used the inbuilt text in the PDF for guidance. Unfortunately, the inbuilt text layer was a (as it turns out) badly OCR'd version of the original, and the text I was originally searching for (around page 72) just happened to be missing; I guess it was obscured by the picture of Clarke with the tenor saxophonist. I've OCR'd it again from scratch and now have a much better version which I'm satisfied with to work from. Thanks to both of you for your help with this. Graham87 07:10, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings, has someone access to the chapters of this book that deal with Sillajguay volcano, for the userspace sandbox rewrite I am doing there? Thanks, Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 12:35, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Need Chapters 1, 2, 3 and 4 from the above books with index and citation details page. This will be useful for several articles on Gujarati Wikipedia. Thanks. Gazal world (talk) 18:28, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Darkwarriorblake: As explained at the top of this page, due to copyright we don't supply whole-book copies. Can you narrow your request to a small portion of the work? --Worldbruce (talk) 21:16, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know what is in the book, any pages relating to behind the scenes production info would be handy if someone is willing to identify them. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 11:44, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'll access this when next at my library and see if I can easily locate any such pages. Hopefully there's a good index, but it's only a 96 page book, so I can skim if necessary. ~ Rob13Talk 08:04, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Darkwarriorblake: I've scanned the section that seems to have the most to do with behind the scenes production. Could you email me so I can respond with the pdf attached? ~ Rob13Talk 21:28, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Need Chapter 5 and 6 of the above book. It is For Language poets and the same article on Gujarati Wikipedia. Thanks, Gazal world (talk) 06:55, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In case anyone has access to the Daily Mail archive, I'm looking for an article from 10 January 1906, p. 3, possibly by Charles E. Hands. It's an article about the suffragettes; indeed, it was apparently this article that coined the term. Hoping someone can help; many thanks in advance, SarahSV(talk) 17:19, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I have a Newspapers.com subscription but the 'Daily Mail' is not part of their database. If you need other sources, let me know. Best Regards, Barbara✐ ✉ 03:36, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
SlimVirgin, email me for this. I think the article you're looking for is Mr. Balfour and the "Suffragettes" on page 5. --Usernameunique (talk) 01:58, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Usernameunique, I'm sorry to be so slow to reply to this. Thank you for sending that article, but it doesn't look like the right one. It doesn't have the byline, and it uses the term suffragette as though it's been used before, not as though it's the article coining the term. The issue is that lots of secondary sources attribute the term suffragette to the Daily Mail, and specifically to an article by Charles E. Hands (one source says this) from 10 January 1906. They say that the Mail made up the term to minimize what the women were doing (i.e. they were not real suffragists, but mini or fake versions, as in kitchen/kitchenette). But I've never seen anyone quote the Mail article, so I would like to try to find it. SarahSV(talk) 01:47, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
SarahSV, I had no luck with the archives I checked. Gale has a Daily Mail archive; perhaps someone here has access to it. (Unfortunately, access to Gale doesn't necessarily include this particular product.) BlackcurrantTea (talk) 13:14, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
SlimVirgin, I wonder if your suspicion is right. It strikes me as quite common that terms are coined without much ado, and I believe the quotation marks around the term are a hint that the author may have made up the word himself. More importantly, however, the OED mentions the article identified by Usernameunique as its first recorded use of the term ("1906 Daily Mail 10 Jan. Mr. Balfour and the ‘Suffragettes’... It was not surprising that Mr. Balfour should receive a deputation of the Suffragettes."). Best, — Pajz (talk) 21:12, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
SlimVirgin, the byline doesn't say "Charles E. Hands," but it does say "From Our Special Correspondent." I wonder if Hands was "the" special correspondent for the Daily Mail (or for particular subjects for the Daily Mail), i.e., when they referred to a special correspondent (perhaps with reference to a particular subject), they were referring to him? Many of his bylines say "From Our Special Correspondent,/Charles E. Hands", or have the "From Our Special Correspondent" precede the text, and the "Charles E. Hands" follow it; the latter was true of an article he wrote on January 11th, "Mr. Balfour's Position." Hands seems to have been quite well known, as shown by his NYT obit, which also mentions his coining of the term. The 1931 letter to the editor that the obit mentions is here, but does not state particulars of the first usage. --Usernameunique (talk) 22:28, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm looking for a Daily Mirror article from either 25 or 26 October 1906, which discusses the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (NUWSS) and the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), also known as the suffragettes. I don't have a page number or headline, but I believe it contains the words "noisy methods", and it's about a meeting of the NUWSS on 24 October 1906, attended by 2,000 women, at which the suffragettes were reportedly applauded. It's for Mud March (suffragists). Many thanks, SarahSV(talk) 21:02, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, there is a creepy message saying you can repost our e-mail(s). User:Worldbruce: I believe you've already sent me stuff. Could you please send it to me instead?Zigzig20s (talk) 10:30, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Zigzig20s: Sorry, I don't have any special access to current WSJ material, just the two-free reads per month that everyone gets. Mine have been used up for May, so you might as well wait until June 1 and download it yourself. Alternatively, Kevin seems to have taken down that creepy warning (which may have made sense for arbcom clerk dealings, but could be a deal breaker with editors here who value their anonymity), so you could email him after all. The WSJ piece is an op-ed, so I doubt if you'll be able to use it for the purpose you would like. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:44, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Zigzig20s: My apologies, forgot to follow up here. I've removed the editnotice; if you still want, I can send you this article. I get it if you don't want me to, though. Thanks, Kevin (aka L235·t·c) 04:32, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I need scholarly resources for Bakor Patel, a popular children's literature character from Gujarati literature (India) to improve article with better information. I have already added which I can find so far.
@Nizil Shah:, I have sent an entry about Bakor Patel from 'Gujarati Vishwakosh' to KartikMistry for Gujarati Wikipedia. Ask him, if he would able to send you. Otherwise, I will send you separately when I visit my library. --Gazal world (talk) 13:48, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Article in The Los Angeles Times to double-check[edit]
Hello. Someone sent me this obituary already but I need to double-check if it's been updated and if it mentions the federal consent. Or could you please check for me and copy and paste the sentence?Zigzig20s (talk) 18:26, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Bill Bratton, the police chief at the time, said he and Mack forged a strong, if perhaps unlikely, bond as they both pushed in their own ways to force the recalcitrant department to accept sweeping reforms required under a federal consent decree.

Chris Griffen entry in The Biographical Encyclopedia of Jazz[edit]
