I'm currently working on North–South Expressway Northern Route, but online secondary sources have been a pain to find. A web search turned up nothing reliable, while a Google Books and Google Scholar search resulted in only one minor publication by the World Bank, which I could only use for one sentence. Searches of local news websites resulted in only accidents and incidents that occurred, which aren't notable. I'm pretty much hanging on the hope that there is a paper source (or some online work that I haven't been able to find) going into detail about the expressway, especially its history. If there is, it would also help a lot with the general North–South Expressway (Malaysia) article as well as North–South Expressway Southern Route, if I do get to it eventually. – Pizza1016 (talk | contribs) 06:36, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Will it be possible to find a quote of Gamal Abdel Nasser, the Egyptian president on 1967, in Heykal's book: Sphinx and commissar: the rise and fall of Soviet influence in the Arab world ?

- The quote is found in the hebrew version of Gluska's The Israeli Military and the Origins of the 1967 War, p. 235. My translation is: "Nasser canceled at the last minute a planned Egyptian attack, and later accused the soviets: "you stopped us and have not allowed us to be the first to attack. You have not let us having the initiative. That was a collusion."

- Gluska cites Heykal's book: Sphinx and commissar: the rise and fall of Soviet influence in the Arab world, the Hebrew version, p. 181, 182.

 Not done

Basically, I am trying to verify the case of a woman who died in 1954 and who claimed to be 112 years old at the time of her death for the Gerontology Research Group. Based on my research, this woman might have indeed been 112 years old (or extremely close to it) at the time of her death. That said, though, I am unsure about what exactly the names of this woman's parents were; thus, I am hoping to access this woman's death certificate in order to see if it states the names of this woman's parents; the names of this woman's parents can go a very long way in verifying this woman's claimed age.

I think that Ancestry.com has this woman's death certificate:

http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=cookcountydeaths&so=2&pcat=BMD_DEATH&rank=1&new=1&MSAV=1&msT=1&gss=angs-c&gsfn=nancy&gsln=merriman&cpxt=0&catBucket=rstp&uidh=000&cp=0&cj=1&sid=i66xemvno40004ma007uo&netid=cj&o_xid=0003753210&o_lid=0003753210&o_sch=Affiliate+External

I think that this specific death certificate is indeed for this woman:

View Record Nancy Merrimen dd mm 1954 location Purchase original record from Cook County

However, I myself do not have an Ancestry.com subscription; thus, I am wondering if someone here who does have an Ancestry.com subscription can get access to this woman's death certificate and, if this is legal, to give me a copy of this woman's death certificate. Again, I want this death certificate for gerontology research purposes, which, in my honest opinion, is certainly a very good cause. Futurist110 (talk) 21:15, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Hi Futurist110, the record you're looking for is merely indexed on Ancestry.com. The original death certificate is available for purchase from the Cook County Clerk’s Office for 17 USD.

Name: Nancy Merrimen | Death Date: 14 Jan 1954 | Death Location: Cook County, IL | File Number: 6001585 | Archive collection name: Cook County Genealogy Records (Deaths). [Index-only Record] - NQ (talk) 00:05, 16 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

So in other words, there is no way at all to get this woman's death certificate for free, correct? Futurist110 (talk) 04:49, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Futurist110: Correct. - NQ (talk) 13:26, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

They charge an extra fee so it's $18.75 ... lame! It's too bad the Social Security death index doesn't start until 1962.... Wikimandia (talk) 21:33, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The U.S. Social Security Death Index might not help here considering that I know when exactly this woman died; rather, I simply want to know what exactly this woman's parents' names are due to the fact that this information might very well be crucial in verifying this woman's claimed age. Based on the research which I (and possibly one or more other people) have done on this case, this woman might have very well indeed been 112 years old at the time of her death, but I need to know the names of this woman's parents so that I can confirm that the 1850 and 1860 U.S. Census entries which I and/or other people have found are indeed for the Nancy Merriman/Merrimen who died in 1954.

Dear Wikipedians,

I'm looking for books about American Cyanamid, e.g. yearbooks or something like 50 Years of American Cyanamid. I've searched at Amazon, but haven't found, what I'm looking for. Because I'm not based in the US, it's difficult for me to find literature. --Kopiersperre (talk) 22:16, 13 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Kopiersperre: American Cyanamid's reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission are publicly available, starting in 1994. Since American Cyanamid stopped being a reporting company in 1995, this is a fairly short window, but you can still find some useful reports at the SEC's EDGAR webpage for American Cyanamid. John M Baker (talk) 22:19, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to have a book with photos and so one. Don't you have more pleasing (not Form 10-K) annual reports in the US?--Kopiersperre (talk) 20:01, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Kopiersperre: In the U.S., the annual report to stockholders is a separate document from the formal annual report to the SEC on Form 10-K, although the stockholders' annual report may be included as an exhibit to the 10-K. The annual report to stockholders typically, but not always, is aesthetically more pleasing (although I tend to prefer the 10-K, which often has more solid information). These days EDGAR can accommodate annual reports with fancy graphs and colored pictures, and companies generally put them on their own web pages. In 1994, however, EDGAR was entirely text-based. I haven't checked, but I assume that either American Cyanamid did not have a web site or that site is long-gone. John M Baker (talk) 22:22, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Looking for articles from three different Polish journals for the Grodziskie article.

The first journal is Przemysł fermentacyjny i owocowo-warzywny and the link takes you to the worldcat entry for it. It appears to be available from a few scattered sources worldwide, including the British Library. I am looking for the following articles:

• Szmelich, W. (1994). O historii i sposobie wytwarzania unikalnego piwa grodziskiego. Przemysł Fermentacyjny i Owocowo-Warzywny, 38(01), 7-10.

• Jarzabek, Z., Marczak, J., & Marczewski, B. (2010). Skąd się w piwie wzięły drożdże?. Przemysł Fermentacyjny i Owocowo-Warzywny, 54(04).

The next article is from the same journal with a different name. Przemysł fermentacyjny. Older. It is also available at the British Library.

• Szmelich W., l963: Problem drożdży dla produkcji piwa grodziskiego. Przem. Ferment: Nr. 11, 262.

Final journal is Acta Microbiologica Polonica, which Worldcat only locates from some resources in France. The link takes you to the journal page. The article I am looking for is

• Szmelich, W. (1964). YEAST SELECTION FOR THE PRODUCTION OF GRODZISK BEER. Acta microbiologica Polonica, 13, 255.

• Brigadier James Henry Gordon CB CBE late The Royal Green Jackets, 504457. He received queen's birthday honours in 1991 and 2013 and the U.S. Legion of Merit. He has such a common name that I'm having trouble finding any info to start, even hometown.

They're far too modern for FMP. Few genealogy websites can cover living people with any depth or degree of certainty. For Gordon, the London Gazette will have some small amounts of info, and I would imagine that if the major newspapers (Times, Guardian etc) do not then local newspapers certainly would. There is this at gov.uk, which will also be in the Gazette somewhere. In fact, he is all over the web in relation to his various honours, but with scant further detail.

Hi all, I'm looking for four articles in the Times that were published on 31 January 1911. I'm literally staring at a microfilmed edition of that day, but the "South American supplement"—listed in the issue's table of contents (p. 11 of the regular edition) and the Annual Index to the Times—is not included. Please help? I'm looking for:

1. "Naval Strength of South America," 31 Jan 1911, p. 1 (these page numbers are referring to the supplement's pagination... the regular page one has marriages etc.)
2. "The Argentine in the 20th Century," 31 Jan 1911, p. 4
3. "South America and Sea Power," 31 Jan 1911, p. 7
4. "British Goods in Argentina," 31 Jan 1911, p. 9.

(Outdent) Advanced searches on The British Library reveal their hard copy's classed "restricted" due to being "fragile", and it's not on microfiche.

Basically looking for any "reference" type works, be they encyclopedic or history or similar works broadly considered "reference works," discussing at length, either as the main topic of the piece or as a multi-page section in a broader work, the mythic Emperor Jimmu of Japan, for use in developing that article and related articles. -John Carter (talk) 19:17, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@John Carter: I have a copy of Brownlee, John S, Japanese Historians and the National Myths, 1600-1945: The Age of the Gods and Emperor Jinmu if you need any extracts not in the Google Books entry. Jbh (talk) 20:25, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Um, what exactly do you mean by "have a copy" here? :) The book appears to have been rather well received, which is definitely a plus, and I would definitely welcome any input from that source in the article when we get to that point. But if it is a physical copy, which you seem to imply, it might be harder to distribute around to all the others who might be involved. I may well ping you when I get to the point of opening discussion on the article talk page when I get to that point. John Carter (talk) 20:39, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It is a PDF so pages can be extracted as needed. Jbh (talk) 20:43, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds very useful. My first "goal" is to more or less see what other encyclopedias and similar short reference articles might say, as an indicator of what sort of things need to be covered in the Jimmu article, early indicators of relative weight in that article, and that sort of thing, basically getting material together to develop an "outline" of sorts for the article. But I have a feeling that source you have would be a much more useful and acceptable citation source than the reference overview articles might be. But that might come second to seeing what is discussed in the other recent extant encyclopedia type sources, and the relative weight they give the material they do include. John Carter (talk) 20:52, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Ping me or email me if you need anything from the book. I also have access to JSTOR and saw several references to Emperor Jimmu but most seemed tangential on first inspection. If you find anything there you need help getting let me know. I did a quick look for other references, there was only a footnote mentioning him in my Cambridge History of Japan which surprised me. Jbh (talk) 21:22, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@John Carter: Send me an email and I'll reply with PDFs of Brownlee, Why Prewar Japanese Historians Did Not Tell the Truth, and Ōbayashi Taryō, Japanese Myths of Descent from Heaven and Their Korean Parallels.

According to this the electronic form is not available, the proper title is Geology, hydrology, and geochemistry of the Black Creek watershed near Mocanaqua, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania and it was published in 1968. This also shows as OCLC 50317392. The FAQ at the USGS says under "How do I obtain a copy of a specific publication?/ How do I obtain a publication that is not available online?"

"USGS Publication: Links to the USGS store will be added shortly for publications that have paper versions in stock. You can also contact the USGS Store to order the publication. The USGS Store is available at http://store.usgs.gov and they can be contacted via email: usgsstore@usgs.gov ; telephone: 1-888-ASK-USGS; and mail: USGS Information Services, Box 25286, Federal Center, Denver, CO 80225-0046. If it is not available, try searching the title online to find a copy for sale or contact your local librarian to see if they can help you borrow a copy."

I am working on an article on an early 20th century french astronomer named Rose Bonnet. Most of the information I've found on her life has been from academic articles (with a few exceptions). I would like to locate an obituary for her to fill in some missing details in her life.

She was born in 1894 and died in 1968 or 1969, most likely at her home in Paris (83—Street number, Rue de la Liberation—Street, Clamart—Commune, Antony—Arrondissement, Hauts-de-Seine—Department, Sud de Seine—Intercommunality, Île-de-France—Region). She spent her career (from 1919 to 1959) at the Paris Observatory. She was a member of the International Astronomy Union and Société Astronomique de France. She married Louis Sainturier in 1932 or 1933, and used "Bonnet-Sainturier" or "Bonnet" thereafter (except for a brief period during the Nazi occupation of France).

I have searched and searched on Google, Google Scholar, Google Books, Bing, Google.fr, and even ventured into the frightening domain of a Brick and Mortar University Library! But to no avail. I suspect the information exists, but is buried in some French newspaper archives that my Google Translate lack of fluency with the language has hidden from me.

I appreciate any help anyone can give--Carl Henderson (talk) 04:23, 13 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  Foreign-exchange reserve statistics for Russia

I would like to plot the foreign-exchange reserves of the Qatar Central Bank. The information is published here on monthly base. Opening ≈120 documents (for the last 10 years) would cost me with my slow internet extraordinarily long time. The data is available at e.g. Trading Economix, but hidden behind a paywall. May someone with access to ' professional statistics provider download the data?

The plot can be used in the articles:

I was able to get the second article (now struck) from German Wikipedia editors. The first request remains open. --Animalparty! (talk) 23:42, 15 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

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!

@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)[reply]

@Buffaboy: I found a few previews on Google Books but most of the pages are omitted. What info are you looking for in the book? --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 00:33, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Good question, I would like as much as possible on the early history, but I do believe my school library has a copy so if I need extra material I can refer to it. Buffaboy ^talk 16:47, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sprague, Peter. "Swift Running". The Vantage Point.

Hi ! I'm a French wikipedian working on the French version of the article about the Aston Martin Lagonda. I just want to be sure that the link I give above (which is supposed to be a transcription of the article) is reliable. So if someone has the paper version and could check or even scan it, it would be great. The Vantage Point is the magazine published by the Aston Martin Owners Club Of North Amercia.

Thanks in advance.

Dr Lol, thanks for the effort on sending me the copy of pages of the article from Bungeishunju, although seems to I made a mistake with the pages, due to the article might begin in a few previous pages, I do not know exactly, but you can think the same if look at page 86: it has not a title. Can you please see if I am right and begins before? If yes, would it be possible to obtain them? Thanks. --Zerabat (talk) 04:04, 12 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Founding a Balkan State: Albania's Experiment with Democracy, 1920-1925 (google books, worldcat). Looking for the photo on page 85 of Fan Noli, which may or may not be the same photo as File:FAN NOLI.jpg. If it is the same, could you add that source to the Commons image page, so the photo isn't deleted? If it's not the same, could you scan and upload it? (It would be PD-US given that he was living in the US at that time.) The photo on page 86 would also be good if you are able to scan/upload (1922 from Boston, PD-US). There may be other photos that are pre-1923 that are not PD in the country of origin (Albania) and could be uploaded to en.wikipedia but not Commons.

Hi I'm looking for page 559 of the law report Lange v Australian Broadcasting Corporation (1997) 189 CLR 520. This was cited in an English Article 10 judgment that I would like to refer to in the Article 10 article, but without knowing what appears on p559 of Lange it's not too easy...

Amisom, note that the opinion in Lange v Australian Broadcasting Corporation is linked from our article, although the linked version is not paginated. John M Baker (talk) 22:45, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Amison: The version from the High Court website also doesn't give page numbers: http://eresources.hcourt.gov.au/showbyHandle/1/233131 This seems to deal mainly with defamation and ensuring the possibility of political communication.

I'm working on The Life and Death of 9413: a Hollywood Extra (MrLinkinPark333 (talk · contribs) has already helped me get one source as requested above). While I think it will be close to GA-worthy status soon, there are a few sources I'd like to get my hands on so I can eventually bring it up to FA. Most of these sources I've seen used as references in other sources that I was able to access. But the ones below I have not been able to get, so I'm hoping to see if anyone can help me get some or all of them.

Hello. I am currently looking for reviews of Linkin Park's albums Hybrid Theory and Meteora:

1. NME January 13, 2001 p. 35. Might be the same as this archived review on their website. I would like to compare them and see if they are the same or not.
2. Q Magazine January 2001 p. 111. There might be a typo in the article of the lead singer's name. It's Chester Bennington, not Chester Bellington.
3. Q Magazine May 2003 p. 104. This one is a review of Meteora.

@KAVEBEAR, I'd start by asking the mag, actually: http://www.americandigger.com/contact.htm. It's a small magazine—I imagine they'd be amenable to a single article request for the good of Wikipedia. czar 13:38, 10 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@KAVEBEAR, have you tried contacting the publisher directly? czar 18:31, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@KAVEBEAR: For $4 you can buy a single PDF of the magazine: http://store.payloadz.com/details/1003350-ebooks-outdoors-and-nature-vol-8-issue-1.html via http://www.americandigger.com/MagazineSingleIssue.htm . Alternately you could look for a library that subscribes; I see one library listed on Worldcat but there may be others.

In case it helps -- you can find an image of the plague here. The cemetery itself first opened in 1949.

Mirror Neurons May Help Songbirds Stay in Tune

Greg Miller

In work published this week, researchers describe mirror neurons in songbirds that fire when a bird sings or hears another bird sing a song similar to its own, a finding that may pave the way to insights into how songbirds learn and maintain their complex songs.

I am trying to find information about the publisher, the publishing location, the volume number and issue number for the April 1956 issue of Paradise of the Pacific.

@KAVEBEAR: It should be Vol 68, No. 4. And if i've located the right one in Worldcat, it was published by E.A. Langton-Boyle in Honolulu. The magazine was renamed to Honolulu magazine in 1966. I'll keep looking. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 22:01, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@KAVEBEAR: A search of the University of Honolulu's catalog confirms it. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 22:16, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am still not sure about the publisher since that magazine seem to switch publishers a few times during its existence. Why does the worldcat link says 1935?--KAVEBEAR (talk) 22:21, 21 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That was one of the issues I found on worldcat of the magazine. I didn't find that specific issue though besides ebay and other auction sites.I did find Vol 68, No. 5 at Hawaii State archive catalog, and it says Press Publishing Co., Honolulu.
