"The MRP-AEG group held the Hirvepark meeting in the Old Town of Tallinn at the anniversary of Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact on 23 August 1987, demanding to disclose and condemn its secret protocol.[citation needed]" I mean this one. Jonathan5566Talk} 10:49, 12 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Jonathan5566: It is unclear why you ask for a newspaper specifically. Newspapers on August 23, 1987 may not have foreseen the significance that the event would take on. The next year, The New York Times wrote: "Details of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, signed on Aug. 23, 1939, were disclosed by the Estonian-language daily newspaper Voice of the Nation on Wednesday and Thursday, and during an Estonian Radio broadcast Friday ... People in the three Baltic republics demonstrated last year on the 48th anniversary of the signing of the pact, demanding that its provisions be made public." ("Estonians Are Told of the Secret Hitler-Stalin Pact". The New York Times. AP. August 16, 1988. p. A7.) Their story doesn't mention the MRP-AEG or the Hirvepark, but sufficient time has elapsed that those details now appear in scholarly books, such as:

Need reviews for wargame Patrol edit

I moved Patrol (board game) to draft space, but to improve it enough to bring it back, we have several old wargame magazines that I believe have reviews for the game, in case anyone is able to track any of them down:

  • Moves #28: "Patrol!: Tactics in the Raw" (Jon-Dane Lukas)
  • Strategy & Tactics #45: "Simove Observations" (Gordon P. Cavis) ISSN 0049-2310
  • Fire & Movement #18:"Panorama: Sympathy for the Devil, Viet Nam Wars, 1965-1975" (Rodger MacGowan)
  • The Wargamer Vol.2 #23: "The Grandfather of Modern War: The Great War, 1914-1918: World War One Games Anthology: Part 2 - Land Games" (Eric Lawson)
  • Phoenix #21

Thanks, BOZ (talk) 03:25, 15 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@BOZ: it would definitely help people if you knew any of the page numbers so people could do ILL requests or scan and deliver requests. Also something like an ISSN ideally or even OCLC number ({{oclc}}) would make it so request fulfillers can easily tell if a local library has the right periodical, especially given how generic some of these titles are.

Access to the British Daily National Newspaper The Times edit

For Stephen Hogan

Does someone here subscribe to the British daily national newspaper The Times official website? I want the helper to forward an article behind its paywall at https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/actors-make-their-voices-heard-for-audiobooks-75vgqvj0d to the user: @TheBirdsShedTears: so that s/he/they could finish at least one of the few verifications. While I can access it via at least three different means, say Factiva, university library and national library of Scotland, it doesn't seem like he believes me or others. Essentially, we want to verify if the following sentences, "In the past, Stephen Hogan read novels such as Sebastian Barry's The Secret Scripture, John Boyne's The Heart's Invisible Furies, and Colm Toibin's The Heather Blazing. Until the pandemic, however, the Dublin-born actor was unfamiliar with home recording. "It was born out of a needs-must scenario," he explains, from his apartment in London. "I had always worked in studios, so this was a learning curve."" exist on the official website.

I am sorry, but I am even more confused now... HathiTrust advertises their new Book Viewer tool, through which users that belong to a qualified institution can definitely, it seems to me, view and read the contents of books in their catalogue, such as this one. And that Book Viewer tool also seems to have capabilities of exporting PDF files of the contents of books. Are you just saying that there are no volunteers in this exchange that have access to institutions that can access the contents of books in the HathiTrust collection/catalogue? Thank you for again any explanation of all these confusing details you can offer. warshy (¥¥) 19:56, 18 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
warshy, HathiTrust hosts (a) public-domain material and (b) in-copyright material. Normally, individuals affiliated with a participating US institution can download (a) and search in (but do not have full-text access to) (b). Only indivuals with print disabilities can view and download (b). During the pandemic, a (steadily decreasing) number of institutions (see ETAS-approved libraries) offer all its members the ability to view and download (b), but that applies only those materials that are physically held in their respective university library. Given that the work in question is available in quite a few US libraries, there's certainly a chance you currently (during COVID-related restrictions in university libraries) can find someone here with digital access, but that's not normally the case. On the other hand, your request has been open for three weeks and you haven't found someone ;-). If you want to wait and/or get in touch with someone with ETAS access, we can leave the request open. Or, since the work is (supposedly) available around here, I could try to scan the pages (probably on Monday, time allowing). — Pajz (talk) 07:10, 19 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Older New York Times articles edit

I am active on the German language Wikipedia, but I thought it makes more sense to ask my question here. I'm currently working on several articles surrounding writer Thomas Savage (biography, also single articles on his novels). I found several reviews on his books in the New York Times archive that I can't access (those I found via TimesMachine are linked, there may be more). The following articles would be helpful:

I hope someone has access to their archive, and can help me. Thank you! Paulae (talk) 15:56, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Paulae: You might be able to access these articles via Proquest with The Wikipedia Library. I'm not sure if it makes a difference that your German Wikipedia account has the requirements to access it (6 months since registration, 500 total edits, 10 edits in last month) but your English Wikipedia account doesnt have the requirements per the Library Bundle. If you can't access Proquest via your German Wikipedia account, let me know. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 16:08, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That was an excellent suggestion, thank you! I already had access to ProQuest via my library before, but that didn't come with the extra newspaper bundle that Wikipedia's access has. I already found one review. I'll mark those that I have found. If I can find all on my own, I'll close this request. Thanks again, --Paulae (talk) 16:41, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sources from newspapers, official charts, and magazines between 1990-2010 edit

{{stale}} Currently working articles for the following artist: Thalía, Gian Marco, Arena Hash, Christian Meier, Natalia Oreiro, Maricarmen Marín, Chayanne, and Anna Carina. I'm looking for information regarding their albums and songs such as: chart placements, certifications, sales, awards, and reception.

  • Hoping to get information from sources like NewsBank, Oricon, or any other reliable source. If someone could help me with this, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks, FanDePopLatino (talk) 04:21, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@FanDePopLatino: It would be helpful if you could pinpoint specific articles within publications. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 18:07, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@RandomCanadian: yeah sorry about that. Here are some of the articles:

Gian Marco: A Tiempo, Resucitar, Al Quinto Día, Días Nuevos, Se Me Olvidó, Lamento, 8, Resucitar, No Te Avisa, Desde Adentro, En Vivo Desde El Lunario, also his albums from 1990-1996 and his 2006 greatest hits album so that I can make articles for them

Christian Meier: No Me Acuerdo Quien Fuí, any of his other albums either solo or with Arena Hash and also his song "Carreteras Mojadas"

Natalia Oreiro: Natalia Oreiro, Turmalina, Cambio Dolor, Tu Veneno

Thalía: Thalía's studio albums from 1990-2009 and also the singles from the albums, Greatest Hits, Thalía con banda: Grandes éxitos, Thalía's Hits Remixed

Anna Carina: any of her albums and also her songs from 1998-2016

Maricarmen Marín: any of her solo albums

Arena Hash: any of their albums

Chayanne: any of his albums FanDePopLatino (talk) 19:20, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@FanDePopLatino: What I meant was that RX is not for someone else to do the searching - it would be best if you instead provide precise citations for sources which you found but do not have access to (or at least, narrow the search by identifying specific issues of magazines or newspapers which talk about your subjects). Look at other requests on this page to see examples. Cheers, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 19:09, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@RandomCanadian: oh okay. Sorry about that. If someone has information from NewsBank and Oricon book which list charts and sales because the Official site of Oricon Charts requires me to have an account or something to the the album's and song's performance on the chart. FanDePopLatino (talk) 19:20, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hey @RandomCanadian:, sorry about everything I wrote before. A friend on Wikipedia just taught me the proper way to make a request. So the information I'm looking for right now is regarding Greatest Hits (Thalía album). On this official website for Oricon it shows that the DVD sold in Japan and entered the charts. I can't see its chart position or sales number because I don't have an account with Oricon or have their sales book. If you or someone you know can find this information for me I would appreciate it.

May 2021 edit

Bahru Kegne source again. Articles of him in a youtube video, can the original articles be found? If it can't be found, can the youtube video be used as reference? edit

{{stale}} Hello, to improve several articles including List of musicians using Amharic vocals, and trying to create a article for Bahru Kegne, a notable Azmari, traditionel Ethiopian folk musician, that used to play for Emperor Haile Selassie. There's a mention of him on this site [[6]] in blue with a link to a youtube video [[7]]. The video displays articles about Bahru Kegne, for example 40 seconds in the video, if you pause it, you can read a piece of biography about his life, family & career. What comes after that are other artists talking in tribute of Bahru. The Ex (band) a Dutch band or Terp records probably wrote the articles in the video. I would like to get access to those original articles and use them as a source. Maybe it's archived somewhere? If not, can i use the youtube video as reference? Any other reliable sources about Bahru Kegne biography & music is very much appreciated. Dawit S Gondaria (talk) 02:34, 25 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Dawit S Gondaria (talk) 01:39, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Dawit S Gondaria, the text in the YouTube video is a verbatim reproduction of the album's liner notes. If you'd like more specifics, I suggest contacting the label owners Terrie Hessels and Emma Fischer. Yet since liner notes are not subject to editorial review/fact-checking, they would not be considered reliable sources for use in an encyclopedia unless they've been republished elsewhere and subject to that editorial treatment.

Hello @Czar: i already reached out to Terrie Hessels from Terp records, he respondend. My initial question was about photo copyright, he indicated there is no copyright on the pictures, they received the pictures from Bahru Kegne family for it's inclusion in a 40+ pages booklet in the album containing biography, interviews with Bahru's descendants, statements of fellow musicians/former collegeaus about Bahru Kegne.

Content email June 10th in Dutch: (English translation by me, for the relevant parts)

terp@theex.nl Do 10-6-2021 13:00 Hoi Dawit!

Goed idee. Bahru is een fenomeen! (Good idea. Bahru is a phenomenon!) Ik luister nu net naar een trio cassette met Yirga Dubale, Damtew Ayale en Bahru. Wow! (I just listend to a trio cassette with Yirga Dubale, Damtew Ayale and Bahru. Wow!)

Die foto's kan je gewoon gebruiken. Voor de goede zaak! We hebben ze gekregen van Bahru's familie om af te drukken in het CD boekje. Echt een copyright zit er niet op. (You can use those pictures. For a good cause! We got them from Bahru's family to print them in the CD book. There's not an actual copyright on them.)

Schrijf je meer over Ethiopische muziek? Waar woon je? Kan ik je een boek en wat muziek sturen!

Hou me op de hoogte! Groet, (Greetings) Terrie Hessels.

I also received the content of a paywalled reliable source on May 25th via Resource Exchange [1]. But the info in the booklet of Album contains more extensive information about other people(including relatives) about Bahru. Are you sure it's not considered reliable?

Springer book chapter on Windows edit

As I wait for the result of my application for SpringerLink at The Wikipedia Library, I may as well ask politely for the above SpringerLink source that I can hopefully use to verify claim on Windows Registry that Critics labeled the registry in Windows 95 a single point of failure.
