Tribalism and Society in Islamic Iran, 1500–1629[edit]
I can't see the table of contents via this preview, however some poor search results with several keywords showed that I need from 83 to 95, and from 155 to 158 pages.
(It would be great if I have access to full-text of the book, because then I can create several new articles.)
Benyamin, the version we have here is OCLC1078805693, which appears to be a reprint of the original thesis ("This is an authorized facsimile, made from the microfilm master copy of the original dissertation or master's thesis published by UMI"). Not sure if that would be a feasible alternative for you. (I'd also have to check whether it is currently accessible in light of Covid-related library closures.) — Pajz (talk) 16:55, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Pajz: Hi. Tanks for your attention and response. I had tried, but could not find any downloadable link of them. Have you? Benyamin (talk) 20:45, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Benyamin: We can not perform full book scan here because of copyright. Can you be more specific in page range, because I can only ask my librarian to scan specific pages. If you can't, I will get the pages 83–95, 155–158 scanned. --Gazal world (talk) 10:11, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Gazal world: All right. Range of pages ix, 24, 83–96, 155–159 are well. Thank you very much. Benyamin (talk) 11:14, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Another one for Boshin War (this time in French or Japanese)[edit]

For Boshin War. There are multiple refs that cite this work, but two don't have a page number. I have been unable to find a copy of this book myself. The French title is Soie et lumières : l'âge d'or des échanges franco-japonais (des origines aux années 1950).
Hi Nihonjoe you will have to specify what exactly do you want from this book. --Gazal world (talk) 20:03, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Gazal world: As I mentioned above, there are two places in the Boshin War article where this source is used, but a page number isn't specified: here and here. I have no idea where in the book they are. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 20:24, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the ping, Gazal world. Nihonjoe, I can get the book and scan the relevant pages for you, but not until next Friday (9/4) at the earliest. Does that work for you? Mcampany (talk) 19:38, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Mcampany: That's perfectly fine. Note that the book is in French and Japanese, so hopefully you can read one of them enough to find the refs. Thanks! ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 20:09, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Nihonjoe:, sorry for the delay! I've just sent it. Mcampany (talk) 21:22, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Mcampany: No worries. If you can send the French sections, too, that would be great. Sometimes it's easier to make sense of something when you see it in the original language and in the translation. Thanks! ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 21:37, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Mcampany: As far as I can tell, the pages you sent me do not contain the parts I need. Specifically, I'm looking for these (both about Enomoto):
Invited to surrender, Enomoto at first refused, and sent the Naval Codes he had brought back from Holland to the general of the Imperial troops, Kuroda Kiyotaka, to prevent their loss. Ōtori Keisuke convinced him to surrender, telling him that deciding to live through defeat is the truly courageous way: "If it's dying you want you can do it anytime."
After two or three years of imprisonment, most of them were called to serve the new government, and several pursued brilliant careers. Enomoto Takeaki, for instance, would later serve as an envoy to Russia and China and as the education minister.
Can you look at the source again and see if you can find anything about those? Thanks! ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 16:21, 10 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Nihonjoe: Sorry about the misunderstanding! I was under the impression that you were looking for the two sections that specifically mention the Boshin War. I'll send you the chapter on Hakodate in a moment. According to the index, it's the only chapter where Enomoto, Kuroda, and Otori are mentioned. Kuroda is very briefly mentioned on the final page (90), but I couldn't find Otori's quote at all. I hope that it's in there and I've just missed it. The chapter after this one is completely unrelated to Enomoto and the battle of Hakodate, so it doesn't continue where this chapter leaves off. Mcampany (talk) 00:03, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I started a stub article on the novel Takeoff! including the one source that I had, and based on the ISFDB link for this novel[1] there are reviews in at least the following:
Review by Donald M. Hassler (1986) in Fantasy Review, October 1986
If anyone can find copies of any of those reviews, to either provide me with a copy or to add information directly to the article if interested, that would be appreciated! :) BOZ (talk) 14:29, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@BOZ: Archives of Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine issues can be found here while Amazing Stories are here. While Analog Science Fiction is here, 1980 is not covered. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 18:05, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Neopeius and Mike Christie: Do either of you have the above sources, or different sources that would help with the article? Kees08 (Talk) 16:27, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Bruce1ee and MrLinkinPark333, I added something from those three reviews to the article. :) BOZ (talk) 20:54, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, BOZ and Kees08, not sure how I missed this ping -- I only noticed it because I was on this page looking for something else. I've checked and I do still have the two 1980 Analog issues, but they're in a box somewhere in the basement and I've no idea which one. I'll try to remember to let you know when they eventually come out, probably later this year. I don't have any copies of Fantasy Review, and a quick look through my references finds nothing. According to Google Books there's a short review in Science Fiction and Fantasy Book Review Annual 1988, edited by Latham and Collins. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 11:43, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@BOZ and Kees08: I have those three two issues of Analog that are still on the list above, and I know right where they are. I'll check on them when I get home. Please send me a Wikipedia email and I'll send you the articles. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 23:01, 10 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I will take a good look at these in the near future. :) BOZ (talk) 03:36, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Mike Christie: Just a heads-up, the two Analog issues have been found (save you some unnecessary digging). —Bruce1eetalk 23:47, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

For JD Slater, John Duffy Slater, possibly under John Slater, John Duffy, or using Slater. Drummer magazine, the niche gayporn one, did at least one and maybe several articles about JD. Any help appreciated!!!
Gleeanon409, sent #2, #3 (it's not a monograph but an edited volume; the one hit on p 168 is from an article by Capino, see table of contents). As a side-note, if you see that an index shows a few-pages span, it would generally be helpful if you could give us that page range ;). As to #4, I can access the printed volume next week, but am not sure what you'd like me to do. You write that you don't know what's in there, but presumably something prompted you to request it ... Do you have a page? Do you expect a mention in the index? — Pajz (talk) 01:10, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
For #4, I’m hoping either “John Duffy” and/or “jd Slater” will pop result(s) but google books gave only that “something” was there. He came of age in nyc and was a model, porn actor so pier sex is in line. Gleeanon409 (talk) 05:28, 20 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
