Hello. I'm looking for access to these articles by Chemical & Engineering News for my draft on Betty Sullivan. Unfortunately, Gale only has the indexes.
"Betty Sullivan Awarded Osborne Medal by Cereal Chemists". Chemical & Engineering News. 26 (24): 1767. 14 June 1948. doi:10.1021/cen-v026n024.p1767.
"New Honors for Sullivan and Smith". Chemical & Engineering News. 32 (12): 1138–1144. 22 March 1954. doi:10.1021/cen-v032n012.p1138.
Also, according to this book, she was featured in Chemtech 6 pages 738-743. I assume this is the magazine Chemical Technology by
American Chemical Society but I'm not sure. This one is an extra in comparison to the other three. Thanks! MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 20:17, 9 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@MrLinkinPark333:Sent #2 and #3 (both from American Chemical Society Journals). My access to ACS only gives the abstract for #1. I can't find the last one – the full citation of the article would help. —Bruce1eetalk 21:14, 9 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Bruce1ee: That's the thing. I don't know the full citation for the last one. But thank you for #2 and #3! --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 21:18, 9 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

one page from Texas Biographical Dictionary third edition[edit]
((resolved))
Hello. I am looking for page 352 only of this book for my draft on William S. White.
Onofrio, Jan (1996). Texas Biographical Dictionary. 2 (Third ed.). Somerset Publishers Inc. p. 352. ISBN 040309951X.
I have 353-354 via GBooks and unfortuantely 352 isn't available. This is from the second volume of the third edition.
Thank you! MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 00:45, 12 August 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Bruce1ee: Thank you, but that's not what I'm looking for. I presume it's the wrong edition. See here --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 13:39, 12 August 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@MrLinkinPark333: The edition I looked at is this one, and I can see page 352. Now if you click on "About this book" in the left column of my edition and look at the "Bibliographic information" at the bottom of the page, it matches the corresponding "Bibliographic information" of the edition you looked at. What is interesting is that the page 352 I can see now, isn't the same as the one I saw earlier. I think Google Books is playing games with me! —Bruce1eetalk 14:30, 12 August 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Bruce1ee: It also could be that the url I have has both volume 1 and volume 2 (with the same page numbers). I need volume 2. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 14:45, 12 August 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@MrLinkinPark333: Have you received this page? If not, Bruce1ee, would you please try again? I'm suspecting the page you saw the second time, which you say is different than what you initially sent, is the one that MrLinkinPark333 is looking for, and you seem to be the only one with access to it. —Compassionate727(T·C) 13:24, 4 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Bruce1ee: Ah. You said above, "the page 352 I can see now, isn't the same as the one I saw earlier", which I took to mean that you had found something else after MrLinkinPark333 said you provided him the wrong thing. —Compassionate727(T·C) 13:39, 4 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Compassionate727: Sorry, I didn't make myself very clear last month. Neither this page, nor the page I sent on 12 August cover William S. White. —Bruce1eetalk 13:52, 4 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Bruce1ee: In the above link you shown today, White is covered there p. 352 not 325. However, 352 is not part of the page preview. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 16:05, 4 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@MrLinkinPark333: I'm sorry, I've really screwed things up, haven't I? I read 352 as 325! Although I did get the first page number I sent you on 12 August right, but it appears to have been from another edition. —Bruce1eetalk 16:49, 4 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
No worries @Bruce1ee:! Even with a different version, the page is still elusive lol. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 16:52, 4 September 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I am currently expanding the 66th Infantry Division (United Kingdom), a British Army division that was active for less than a year. I have the created the basic outline of the division's history, but the article could do with some specific details. I have been able to identify these two sources as ones that could add a little more detail to the article. The page numbers for Surtees are rough based off what I could access, the pages that deal with the 2/5th, 2/6th, and 2/8th Battalions are the ones that are relevant to the article.

Need the first chapter "The Sasanians and the Sistanis". Would greatly appreciate it, since expansion is sorely needed in this rather obscure area, namely the Indo-Parthian Kingdom article.
@HistoryofIran: So far you've asked for and received copies of 4 of the book's 11 chapters in separate requests. You're beyond the point that Wikipedia can make a good case for copying more under "fair use". If the source is so useful to your work, don't be a cheapskate, buy it. A used paperback should cost less than 30 euros with shipping to Denmark, an electronic copy might be even less. --Worldbruce (talk) 22:41, 13 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Funnily enough I've already bought it from Amazon, yet it has no pages (it has "locations" instead, as I've already mentioned here before), so thus useless for work. Not buying it again, that's silly. Also, no need to patronise me (I very well know the price) nor call me a "cheapskate", mind your manners. Unlike you, mayhaps I know how to use my money appropriately? If having more parts of the book is against the rules, then fine, I understand. You could have just only said that instead of taking a dig at me as well. Like you and many others, I'm just here to improve this site. Just close this section then. HistoryofIran (talk)
@HistoryofIran: Sources without page numbers, like ebooks, can still be used in citations. According to WP:PAGENUM the relevant text can be identified by chapter- and/or section-titles. —Bruce1eetalk 05:45, 14 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Need Russian translation + Russian sources after 1905 for history of aerodynamics[edit]
I would like:
A translation of the last sentence of page 72 (page 75 in the website browser) of [1], which is probably something like "the data of table 7 was collected by G. I. Lukyanov", but the precise wording would be interesting.
A search for possible references to the "Lukyanov paradox" in Russian-speaking sources.
Some background: the article is drag crisis which in that revision made multiple assertions that do not seem supported by the sources and which I will remove shortly. The only (non-Youtube video) source, either here or on fr-wp, is the primary source linked above, a collection of works by Nikolay Zhukovsky (scientist) works. More precisely, the article claims:
That the drag crisis is also known as "Eiffel-Lukyanov paradox", but GScholar does not know it. It could be known as such in Russian, but we need a secondary source for that.
That it was first identified in 1905 by a Russian student G.I.Lukyanov - here's why I would like a translation, because there is a range of possibilities between a lab technician who runs the experiments as ordered by the supervisor and a PhD student who shows significant initiative. Saying "identified by" in Wikipedia's voice would be justified for the latter but not for the former. Furthermore, the book was published in 1938, so it would be nice to have a source for "1905" as well.
@Tigraan:@Compassionate727: That sentence translates as: "The results of Lukyanov's experiments are shown in the table 7." Also, on the previous page, there's a statement: "Now we'll take a look at the results of experiments (1907–1909) with a ball <...> conducted in an old pipe in Moscow University by a student G. I. Lukyanov." The search of "Lukyanov paradox" in Russian didn't return any results except an old Soviet video uploaded to VK and not showing any signs of reliability. Coolak (talk) 16:32, 17 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Later on, the book also tells about some similar experiments conducted by Eiffel, but it never mentions "Eiffel-Lukyanov paradox" or anything like that. However, I am so much of a non-scientific guy that I can't even tell you if the book tells about the same things as the article. Let's just assume that it does.

Jo-Jo Eumerus, I take it you need the book whose review you've linked at, and not the review itself? I will be able to access a copy during a library trip next week, and I should be able to scan a few pages. – Uanfala (talk) 01:01, 18 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Jo-Jo Eumerus: It's a book review in an academic journal. I assume you want the book review, since that's what you linked to. Uanfala assumes you want something from the book. Being misunderstood one way or the other is one of the perils of just slapping down a link instead of providing on this page "as much detail as possible: a full citation with author, title, publisher, and date and, if possible, identifiers like DOI, ISBN, ISSN, PMID, etc." --Worldbruce (talk) 18:03, 18 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I did find that webpage through Google Scholar and it gave no indication that it was a book review rather than a publication, that's why it's just a link.

@Jo-Jo Eumerus: Are you receiving a one-page PDF then (as opposed to cover-like page and 34 blank pages)? I wonder if it's getting truncated because of the massive file size (2.7 MB). Or perhaps the PDF isn't uploading fully because of my poor Internet at the moment. Here's what I'll do: because I received the file digitally through OCLC, I've forwarded you the email with the link and the required password (it will be coming from a different email address than normal). See if that works; you should be able to log into the file three or four more times before the access expires, and it should automatically download as a PDF when you log-in. —Compassionate727(T·C) 17:31, 23 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Jo-Jo Eumerus: Looks like the problem was that the first page (with the loan information) had landscape orientation, and the rest of the PDF was portrait-style; for whatever reason, this threw off the software you use to view PDFs, but not mine. Sending you a second PDF without that loan info fixed the problem; you still have the first three attempts if you ever need that info. —Compassionate727(T·C) 18:17, 23 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Antemister, I haven't checked your last request, but if nobody with access responded back then, perhaps OhanaUnited can help this time (see U Toronto catalogue)? Either way you'll have to indicate which article(s) you are interested in. Best, — Pajz (talk) 18:33, 24 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
OK, maybe it is possible now. Once someone with access is found, I'll send the respective person an eMail with an attached PDF which includes the desired issues, that seems to be easier than writing it here.--Antemister (talk) 20:43, 24 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Antemister and Pajz: I only have access to 5 issues (2 from 1924 and 3 from 1929). Unless your requested material is from either year, it's unlikely I will have access to what you want. OhanaUnitedTalk page 00:49, 25 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Sounds good! Because it might be better if you have a look at the parallel issue in English. If you search for "International Commission for Air Navigation" in the Smithsonian Libraries (sorry, there seems to be no permalink), you'll find a relatively complete collection of their "Bulletin of information.", while the "Bulletin de renseignements." of the [Paris?] : Service Technique de l'Aeronautique seems to be both incorrectly categorized and very incomplete. As the Smithsonian Institution is in the US, it is of course likely that they have the english issues rather than the French one, even if this is not stated in the Worldcat. OhanaUnited, can you access that english version? And could you send me an eMail, so that I can sent you the mentioned PDF?--Antemister (talk) 15:33, 25 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Antemister: In Smithsonian's website, it presents an overview followed by a collection of links in that archive (there are 10+ links). As per my general principle, I don't reveal my personal email to others. I uploaded the overview page along with the headings. Please let me know which section you would like to take a look.

What I am doing is developing a List of busiest airports by passenger traffic for the the pre-war years. The data was collected bei CINA/ICAN, ICAO's predecessor and published within their Bulletin de renseignements/Bulletin of information. Most, but not all of these statistics were also published in secondary sources. I have already gotten a complete table of contents from the French national archives, see at Workuplod, in which I have marked the tables I could not find in secondary sources They are unfortunately very scatterd through the hundreds of issues published. @OhanaUnited, can you show me what is behind that link Bulletin of information? Is it possible to download PDFs?--Antemister (talk) 11:07, 27 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Antemister: The way they archive things is a complete mess. There is no systemic way to navigate unless I stumble upon the correct keyword. They are scanned as images but don't group things into a table in sequential order, but by country/airlines/routes. There're close to 2000 items in this archive so I can't go through them one by one.

@OhanaUnited: could you just upload a copy of that messy page? Perhaps I can sort out from there waht I am looking for.--Antemister (talk) 07:58, 28 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Sadly the page didn't work that way. It only shows the title of the page without describing which airline/route the page is about and most entries share the same title other than the year. And it only displays about 5 entries within the screen so I can't just printscreen them and let you sort them out. OhanaUnitedTalk page 18:46, 28 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
OK, seems not that easy as it sounds... :-( Anyway, another issue: The material you find there, is it that ICAN Bulletin of information?--Antemister (talk) 21:53, 28 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Bionicle video game review from September 2001 issue (148) of Nintendo Power[edit]
Nintendo Power. September 2001. ((cite journal)): Missing or empty |title= (help)
For Lego Bionicle: Quest for the Toa, which I am currently working on in my sandbox. No archived copy exists online, save for the front page and table of contents. Based on this, I believe there are two sections in the magazine that relate to this game: a strategy guide on page 78, and a review somewhere else. The review score is listed on GameRankings. Both would be very helpful in developing this stub page.
Hi there Redrobsche, I have access to this article. Can you email me so that I can attach the PDF? Thanks, SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 11:50, 2 November 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
