Research Studies, Don M. Cregier, David Lloyd George[edit]
@Winged Blades of Godric: - the publisher wasn't given in the work citing it, but I have tracked it down to Washington State University - a fuller title of the journal is Research Studies : a quarterly publication of Washington State University. I've also discovered that I posess an updated version of the article, "The Lloyd George Policy Studies", in Cregier, Don M. (1982). Chiefs Without Indians. Washington DC: University Press of America. pp. 165–190. ISBN0819128074. so I think I can mark this as resolved. Thank you for trying. DuncanHill (talk) 16:36, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The version that I am going to send you doesn't have page numbers. They are: 1725 (ends with "included early historical work that"), 1726 (ends "historians and anthropologists have documented complex histories of individuals and"), 1727 ("diagnosis officially focuses on the feelings of distress and discontent associated"), and 1728 (the rest of it). Please email me at fiamh@protonmail.com so that I can send you it. Fiamh(talk, contribs)02:05, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Fiamh: thanks for sending that. Unfortunately, I seem to have given the wrong page number. The chapter I need evidently starts on page 1728. I've adjusted the above citation; could we try it again? Thank you. —Sangdeboeuf (talk) 04:39, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I would like the entire chapter if possible, but failing that just pages 408 and 411 would be really helpful. You can send it to me at fiamh@protonmail.com. For The Holocaust in Slovakia
I'm looking to flesh out the details for this particular reference that someone else added. I believe WSJ is available through ProQuest. I Would like to read the full article to understand a bit better, make sure the information it's backing up is correct, and have page number etc for details. Thanks.

My ProQuest access only has Wall Street Journal articles from January 2, 1984. I don't know if there are other levels of access that go back further. Sorry, I can't help you there. —Bruce1eetalk05:39, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Banning's "Poststructural Theory" article from T&F.[edit]
{{resolved}}
For possible relevance to a discussion at Global warming, I'd like to see a copy of:
Marlia Elisabeth Banning, "When Poststructural Theory and Contemporary Politics Collide—The Vexed Case of Global Warming", in Communication and Critical/Cultural Studies 6(3):285-304 Sep. 2009. https://doi.org/10.1080/14791420903049736.
For Mission: Impossible 2. If I remember correctly, there's one chapter in the first book that talks exclusively about the subject. With regard to the second book, kindly search the Glossary for the relevant pages as I don't have the exact ones I need (I apologize in advance if this one is hassle to you).
The film is mentioned throughout this book, so it's hard to know which pages would interest you. Borrowing it yourself makes more sense. —Bruce1eetalk10:14, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Jo-Jo Eumerus: According to my college's librarians, they could only find one resource that was even close to this, a CD-ROM in Spain. They say they can ask, but that the institution probably will not lend it. Is this information going to be particularly helpful, or should I tell them to forget about it? Alternatively, because they don't seem to be confident that they found the right thing, we might get a better result if you tell me where you found this citation. —Compassionate727(T·C)14:56, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Jo-Jo Eumerus: Well, being a mere second-year college student, I am not especially confident in my ability to read less common types of citations, but I am guessing from the short page range (two pages) and the fact that the citation even mentions: "1 mapa escala 1:100.000 [1 map, scale 1:100,000]" that this source (and the similar one dated 2013a) that both of these sources are only maps. Moreover, all three statements attributed to those two sources appear to just describe the distribution of various types of volcanic rock in the formation, which is exactly what I would expect a map of volcanoes to depict. So if you are hoping for a journal article, I don't think that's what this is. Would the maps be useful to you? Like I said, my institution can ask to borrow this, but the owner probably won't lend it, and I see no reason to bother unless you're expecting something useful. —Compassionate727(T·C)16:23, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I checked the paper from a weird terminal (that does not allow you to do anything save hands-free viewing) but did not spot anything remotely relevant, as to the topic, on a rapid glance-through. There was a mention of the name in one of the sources over the bibliography, though.
If you do suspect strongly that the paper contains something relevant, I can get you mobile-photo-captures of the terminal screen within a couple of days ..... ∯WBGconverse17:49, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I've been trying to find a copyright-free or Creative Commons photo of Jo Ann Kelly ("Jo-Ann Kelly" during her early career, 1960s) for her article and coming up empty. She died in 1990 so almost all the photos are from old magazine articles or liner notes of LP/CD releases. So generally under copyright and it's often not clear who is the copyright owner of various photos, much less how to contact them. Such images don't really fall under WP's non-free guidelines. I've come to the end of my abilities so any input would be extremely helpful.

Hello, I am looking for an article by Keith Thompson, for use at The Accursed Share. Publication details: Utne Reader (87500256). Jan/Feb90, Issue 37, p106-107. ISSN8750-0256.
@Worldbruce: Thanks. When I visited my library last time, they were reorganizing whole library. So I was not able to find the book without the help of library staff. When I visited, it was Saturday evening, So all the staff-members were not present there. Then, I planned to visit library again on tomorrow or on the day after tomorrow.

For the soon to be created Upbeat (album). The ProQuest document linked above gives the citation only, not the full text. Also, The Sunday Herald is the Sunday edition of The Chronicle Herald.
@Bruce1ee: An update on this request: there's been some kind of snag, and I was asked to resubmit the citation information. The rationale could be interpreted two ways, but I think she was trying to say that the digital request was somehow lost or archived. (The other possible interpretation is that she is struggling to find the article, but she normally communicates that using different language than she used in this case.) I have no guesses regarding a timeframe, this is just a courteousy notification of what's going on. —Compassionate727(T·C)16:25, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Compassionate727: Thank you for all your help so far. I don't want you to go to too much trouble – you've already put a lot of effort into this. If it becomes too messy, then please drop it. It won't be a problem. —Bruce1eetalk17:08, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am working on improving the 2nd Armoured Division (United Kingdom) article. This magazine has a small section that discusses the division, which I have been able to access via Google Books and get what I need. However, I cannot access the author of that section or magazine issue information. It was a monthly issuance, which appears to now be out of print. The book on Google appears to be all 12 issues for 1983. Is anyone able to help either narrow down what issue p.126 comes from, or if page 126 is the page from the entire book and the best way to cite it?EnigmaMcmxc (talk) 13:38, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@EnigmaMcmxc: Have you tried contacting Google Books? They've been able to tell me things like author, issue and page within issue the Google Book snippet appears in. Click on "Report an issue" at the bottom of the page, then select "I have a question or feedback about a book", fill in your contact details, select "Other" and ask them what you need in the "How can we help you?" box. —Bruce1eetalk14:11, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Update: Genericusername57 has been extremely helpful indeed, but there's a couple of pages out of their reach; perhaps someone else can fill in the gaps? It may simply depend on what GBooks allows you to see, of course. But, if possible, can we have a look out for

Shearonink, I have some doubts this request - as it stands - will ever get filled since in addition to this book not being held widely by libraries outside of Switzerland, I am also not aware that any of the regular users of this page speak German (except for me, and I do not have the time to provide you with a translation unless it's just a sentence). On the other hand, if you can find another way to get it translated, I may be able to help you obtain a copy of the page. — Pajz (talk) 19:31, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Kansas Bear, based on the description in the publisher's online shop (here), specifically the release model (via Google Translate: "BOOK IS THE FIRST 2 MONTHS EXCLUSIVELY FOR SALE VIA TASMIM.NL Then via Bol.com and Islamic bookshops."), I'm a bit doubtful if you will ever find that work in a research/public library. I would also note that there are few hints that this book project might not be an entirely scholarly endavour (the purpose of the book is described as helping people "find their identity"; there is no information whatsoever on the author; etc.), so - without making any statement on that issue myself - I think you might want to check again if this is a good source for a history-related article.
