Finding a source

Tips for finding a source yourself

• 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 Misplaced Pages community endorses them.

New Zealand sources for Muriel Grace Widdowson

Hello. I'm looking for sources to improve my article on Muriel Grace Widdowson:

• "Retirements". New Zealand Nursing Journal. 46 (1): 28. February 1953. ISSN 0028-8535.
• "Obit". The Press. Christchurch, N.Z. 4 August 1989. p. 5. ISSN 0113-9762.
• Pollard, B.; Pollard, J. (5 September 1989). "Grace Widdowson - the presence of Christchurch Hospital". Press (Christchurch, N.Z.). p. 22.

Thanks. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 00:29, 17 October 2017 (UTC)

@Usernameunique: Wow. Thanks a bunch ;) --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 20:10, 29 November 2017 (UTC)

Found this one that may/may not be useful. It's about a stained glass window that Widdowson unvieled at a hospital where she worked at after her retirement:

• The Press. Christchurch, N.Z. 12 October 1971. p. 2. ISSN 0113-9762. {{cite news}}: Missing or empty |title= (help) --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 21:29, 29 November 2017 (UTC)

The stain glassed window isn't as important, but the third one I'll leave open. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 20:03, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

I'm trying to get the third article. If I can, then I'll file a second request for the article you struck, since the source is the same. ~ Rob₁₃ 17:38, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

Okay. Take as long as you need as this request of mines isn't a priority. Thanks! --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 21:06, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

MrLinkinPark333, just sent the 12 October 1971 article. --Usernameunique (talk) 19:45, 22 January 2018 (UTC)

Hawaiian Music and Musicians: An Illustrated History

This may be easier if it was done via a physical checking out and scanning rather than requesting pages to be scanned since I have no idea the specific page numbers. I need both editions since the later edition adds recent research. Please send me both editions' complete index and table of content for future inquires, and the pages for Lena Machado and the Ellis brothers: John and William. Please send User:Maile66 as well. Thanks so much.

Can anyone help me to found following book ?

@Gazal world: There us a preview on GBooks. What pages/chapters are you looking for and for which article(s)? --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 03:11, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

MrLinkinPark333, I have checked Google book. But some pages are missing there. The book is also available on Archives but due to the waitlist I could not able to read it. I need a full book as I want to pass through this book, and want to create articles about Avant Garde and other experimental works on Gujarati wiki (my native language Wiki). I know that, It is not easy or possible for volunteer to get full book. Also, there are available other Sorces, but I want this one as it is a first ever works on Avant Garde. There are not available this type of work in Gujarati. If whole book is not possible, I can narrow my request. (I think, the book is available on Havard University Press). Gazal world (talk) 18:52, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

@Gazal world: Unfortunately, we can not provide a full book scan due to copyright. The table of contents for this book is avaiable on Harvard University Press's website, if that might help you narrow down your request. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 23:07, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

MrLinkinPark333, I would like to withdrawn my request as I have borrowed successfully the book from Internet Archive. You all are doing great work on Resource Exchange page.

However, I need a chapter from the following book. I don't know the chaptet number, but it is a chapter about Gujarati novel Bharelo Agni.

music reviews on I'm Making Believe

Hello. I am looking for these two music sources for my draft on I'm Making Believe by Ella Fitzgerald and The Ink Spots that appear here on AllMusic:

• (june?) 1944 review in Metronome: "Then the Spots before my eyes. It's the same old act for the Spots, and its quality is the nadir of everything"...
• 1949 review in Melody Maker: "The cloying, sentimentalized tunes with their over-dramatized treatment; and the slow, seldom varying drag tempo, which always seems so exactly right for the number, whatever it is."...

Additionally, there was another review in Metronome magazine (December 1944): "Ella redeems the first side with her wonderful chorus..." I want to see if there's more than what I found on Google Books here.

Thank you. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 03:02, 22 December 2017 (UTC)

@MrLinkinPark333: How confident are you that the years and magazines are correctly matched in the two bullet points above? Allmusic has them the other way around, Melody Maker review in 1949, and Metronome in 1944. I paged through the 12 issues of Metronome from 1949 without finding a review of "I'm Making Believe". For what it's worth, they briefly reviewed many other Ella Fitzgerald titles, and the no-holds-barred language is very much in line with their typical reviews from that era, so the quote probably isn't made up, it just isn't from 1949. Alas my library has a gap in their holdings from 1940 to 1948, so I can't check 1944 for you. --Worldbruce (talk) 06:06, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

@Worldbruce: I accidentally switched the magazines. Thanks for spotting it. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 13:14, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

Ironically MacDermot was one of the ones I was going to do as well for Bristol. If @Andy Dingley: wants to do refs 1 and 2 of MacDermot, I can do Semmens alongside Cobb.

@FunkMonk: Google Books has the Australian Mammalogy one. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 00:38, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Seems to be the whole book? I didn't know they did that for free? FunkMonk (talk) 13:16, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

It depends. Some magazines/journals you might be able to get the whole issue in selected years like Billboard. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 21:46, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Hello. I'm looking for this record from the National Library of Australia:

• Biographical cuttings on Anna Bown, winner of the 1994 Young Australian of the Year, containing one or more cuttings from newspapers or journals. Bib ID 1804327

This is to help expand my article on Anna Johnston (doctor) as Anna Bown is her birthname. Thanks! --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 04:33, 1 February 2018 (UTC)

Still waiting for West Coast Review of Books. WhisperToMe (talk) 19:14, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

WhisperToMe, are you sure it's in volumes 12–13, p. 25? I requested my library to scan it for me, but they responded that the review was not there. --Usernameunique (talk) 15:16, 14 February 2018 (UTC)

English Shonen Jump

To celebrate the the 10th anniversary of the manga series Naruto, Viz Media's own English Shonen Jump made a poll with all of the series' characters (I guess it must be a 2009 issue then). However, I have no idea what issue is that magazine. Regards.Tintor2 (talk) 13:16, 10 February 2018 (UTC)

Straits Times obit (Singapore), 1997

Need the obituary for Barbara Yu Ling (aka Barbara Lee Albery) which may have been published in Singapore's Straits Times on 10 April 1997, page 44. May be available with a subscription or local library access here or here. --Muzilon (talk) 12:50, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

@Muzilon: LexisNexis covers The Straits Times, but not the paid obituaries. The only relevant search result there is a passing mention on 15 July 1997 that Peggy Su! "stars five Singaporeans -Oei, Adrian Pang (who plays Gilbert), Goei, Charles Ong and Barbara Yu-Lin (playing Peggy's parents)." EBSCO, Factiva, NewsBank, and ProQuest also draw a blank for the obit. You may need someone who can visit an NLB library in Singapore or who has access to physical copies of the paper. Worldbruce (talk) 19:33, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

Rats. I've since emailed NLB - they wanted $25 just to email me a scan of the death notice, which seems exorbitant. Do we have any helpful Misplaced Pages editors in Singapore? --Muzilon (talk) 10:30, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

@Muzilon: This page is not the regular haunt of any Sinaporeans, as far as I know. You could reach out to Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Singapore, or ask any and all active members of Category:Wikipedians in Singapore. I've never been successful with similar requests in other places, but you might get lucky. --Worldbruce (talk) 04:49, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
