Finding a source[edit]

Tips for finding a source yourself
Making a request
  • A request may be an open question or you may ask for a specific journal, article or work
  • All kinds of sources are possible here: newspapers, magazine article, databases, encyclopedias, court decisions, laws, books, etc.
  • We cannot handle full book scans
  • You may contact research helpers directly or make a request on this page
  • To receive email without disclosing your email address publicly, configure your email in Special:Preferences
  • Provide as much detail as possible: a full citation with author, title, publisher, and date or identifiers like DOI, ISBN ISSN, PMID, etc.
  • If you are requesting multiple sources, #number them (1, 2, 3..)
  • Once a request has been fulfilled add the {{Resolved}} template.
  • Filled requests are archived.
  • Requests unfilled after 3 months will be moved to the stale requests page

Fulfilling a request[edit]

  • Anyone may offer advice and fulfill requests.
  • Ask questions and offer replies in the request section.
  • Indicate which part or parts of the request is being handled so others do not duplicate your work.
  • Notify (mention) the requester using {{ping|REQUESTER_USERNAME}}
  • You can point to a pre-existing electronic document by giving its URL ( http://... ). You can share scans of pages or documents using a file-sharing service, provided it is legal, or by emailing the content to the requester.
  • You can email a link or plain text to a requester using the Special:EmailUser feature but for attachments, you need to ask them to mail you first so you can reply.

Copyright tips:

  • Respect copyrights and terms of services of any online services you use.
  • Share content in a limited manner that is targeted at as few individuals as possible to achieve a specific improvement on Wikipedia. All content is shared under a presumed non-commercial, educational, fair use purpose in order to conduct research about topics on Wikipedia and/or to improve Wikipedia content.
  • Share copies privately rather than with a publicly accessible link whenever possible. Copyrighted articles from print publications or copies obtained through online databases should not be uploaded for unrestricted distribution via open websites. Preferably, do not share login access codes for entire websites; rather, share only an individual copy of a resource.
  • Remember that you take on the individual risk when sharing content, and act in a way that is comfortable and safe for you. Individual editors are solely responsible for sharing copyrighted content and assume all legal risks.

Seeking two articles on Ralph Vary Chamberlin[edit]

I'm trying to bring Ralph Vary Chamberlin up to GA or FA, and am seeking some offline sources:

  1. Jones, David T. (1944). "List of publications of Dr. Ralph V. Chamberlin to June 1st, 1944.". Vintonia 4: 1–22. OCLC 4171096. 
  2. Uschi Eckstein & Robert Samm (2001). "Beruehmte Arachnologen: Ralph Vary Chamberlin, 1879-1967. [Famous arachnologists: Ralph Vary Chamberlin, 1879-1967.]". Arachnologisches Magazin (in German) 9 (5): 11–12. ISSN 0944-8667. 

If the Arachnologisches Magazin article could possibly be scanned in OCR, that would greatly facilitate machine translation, as I don't speak German. Thanks! --Animalparty-- (talk) 20:39, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

@Animalparty: de:WP:BIBA might be able to help you with this a lot faster. - NQ (talk) 21:50, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Theft of a church bell in 1969[edit]

According to one source, a bell made in 1635 by Joseph Hatch was stolen from the church of St Mary the Virgin at Hillborough, in Reculver parish, in 1970, having been brought there from the demolished church of St Mary's at Reculver itself in about 1809. But I've recently been informed by email that the bell was stolen in August 1969, and that it was reported in at least one newspaper. My informant said that they had a contemporary press cutting somewhere, but they haven't responded to requests for further information. A search of the British Newspaper Archive turns up nothing like it in the vicinity of Reculver, so I wonder if anyone here might be able to help. I'm afraid that's all the information I have. Thanks for reading. Nortonius (talk) 14:32, 7 July 2015 (UTC)

I'll check my copy of Homan, Roger (1984), The Victorian Churches of Kent when I get home, just in case. The church should at least be mentioned in there. Its Bibliography might turn up something as well. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 16:20, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
No joy, unfortunately ... a brief mention with architectural details, but nothing about the bell. Hassocks5489 (Floreat Hova!) 17:35, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
Ok thanks for looking! I'll keep my fingers crossed for a news source. Cheers. Nortonius (talk) 17:43, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
Note that this probably non-RS page suggests that the theft was in April 1969, not August. John M Baker (talk) 19:57, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
Ah yes, thank you, I've probably seen that and forgotten it – I decided a while back not to use that site as a source, as it looked non-RS. So, some time in 1969! Cheers. Nortonius (talk) 21:07, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
  • Are there any newspaper specialists out there who might look into this, if they haven't already? Even news of negative searches would be very gratefully received! Cheers. Nortonius (talk) 10:51, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
I've been searching for it continuously, haven't been able to find a related event in that time frame in any of the online newspaper archives so far - will resume the search in a couple of days when I get back to my workstation. It's ought to be out there somewhere. Regards - NQ-Alt (talk) 12:25, 27 July 2015 (UTC)
Much appreciated NQ-Alt, how very mysterious. It seems definitely to have happened, and stealing a dirty great bell from a church without the neighbours noticing (the building isn't especially isolated) must've been quite a feat! You'd think it would've been newsworthy. Very grateful for your efforts, I'll keep my fingers crossed! Nortonius (talk) 12:37, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

Recent work by David C. Mitchell on the Psalms[edit]

  1. David C. Mitchell "Resinging the Temple Psalmody", JSOT 36 (2012) pp. 355–378
  2. David C. Mitchell "How Can We Sing the Lord's Song?" in S. Gillingham (ed.), "Jewish and Christian Approaches to the Psalms" (OUP, 2013) pp. 119–133
  3. David C. Mitchell "The Songs of Ascents: Psalms 120 to 134 in the Worship of Jerusalem's temples" (Campbell: Newton Mearns 2015)

Could you help in particular with the following question:

Two recent contributions to WP ([3], [4]) claim that David C. Mitchell (more specifically in the sources listed above) supports Haïk-Vantoura's proposed "decipherment" of the tropes of the Hebrew Bible. What precisely did David C. Mitchell have to say regarding Haïk-Vantoura's proposed reconstruction?

Face-smile.svg I'll try to contact the author for the third reference. Again, thanks a lot a lot. Contact Basemetal here 17:52, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
@NQ: Hi Nathan. This is just to keep you updated on my attempts to get to the third reference. I did contact the author, David C. Mitchell. I asked him if there was new material in his book specifically in connection with my question. He answered: "My new book does contain further discussion on the antiquity of the Masoretic te'amim, and more evidence supporting SHV's hypothesis. There is also some repetition of stuff already published." But when I asked him (in order to get a page range) where in his book that discussion takes place he did not answer. From looking at the table of contents
it would have to be Chapter 12 but that's just a guess. Thanks again for your help with the two articles. Cheers, Contact Basemetal here 17:33, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

Chapter from Sketches of Prominent Tennesseans: Containing Biographies and Records of Many of the Families who Have Attained Prominence in Tennessee[edit]

Hello. Could someone please send me the chapter about J.W. Clapp from Sketches of Prominent Tennesseans: Containing Biographies and Records of Many of the Families who Have Attained Prominence in Tennessee by William S. Speer? I think it starts on page 40. Google Books won't load and the PDFs on archives.com are too blurry and impossible to read. I created an article about his mansion, Oakleigh (Holly Springs, Mississippi), and he served in the Confederate Congress, so I believe he should have an article. (Btw, if anyone can also send me a new weblink or (better still) PDF of the Rand book (see request last month), that'd be great as it's expired and I'm not sure anyone has noticed my renewed requests up there.)
