@Tolanor: Are you still looking for the two that aren't struck above? If so, I might be able to get my hands on the Newsweek article. My university's library has a physical copy as microfiche, so if I can figure out what microfiche is and how to operate the reader for it, I might be able to get you a copy. ~ RobTalk 14:55, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
Yep, I am. I'm not entirely sure though whether it is possible to get a scan of a microfiche - you should ask beforehand. Thanks in any case, --Tolanor (talk) 21:34, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
@Tolanor: It's possible to print out the microfiche image and then scan it on a normal scanner for sure. I think the machines at my library can also email them to you. But I have a tale of absurdity to tell on this one. My university's library has the entire Newsweek collection on microcard, not microfiche, even though it's catalogued as microfiche. The best part is that we don't appear to own a microcard reader. I held the damn thing in my hand and it was of exactly no use to anyone. I'm going to call on Monday when the person in charge of the microfiche collection is in and see if they have any means of reading the thing. This has got to be the single most ridiculous thing my university has done yet. ~ RobTalk 22:14, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Softlavender, I've emailed the article to you. John M Baker (talk) 22:49, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

@John M Baker, I appreciate the effort however I need the article in a readable format rather than all clumped together in one solid paragraph. Is someone able to render me a version that is the same format as the article itself? If necessary, i can send my email address to someone so that they can send an attachment if needed. Thank you. Softlavender (talk) 02:16, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

Sure, send me an email. John M Baker (talk) 03:34, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
Sorry, Softlavender, it turns out that I don't have access to a formatted version of the article. You may want to consider just editing the article yourself to insert some paragraph breaks for readability. John M Baker (talk) 14:49, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
OK, John M Baker, since this was basically a series of one-sentence paragraphs, that worked in this instance. However in June I'm going to need the ST article on the winners, and for that I will need the properly formatted article, so please let someone else respond then. Thank you.

Global Status of Commercialized Biotech/GM Crops: 2014

{{resolved}} Hi. I am trying to update the List of genetically modified crops article with the 2014 area planted. I have done what I can, but am missing a lot of information. I was hoping someone could provide a copy of the ISAAA Brief 49-2014 (ISBN 978-1-892456-59-1 Parameter error in {{ISBN}}: checksum), which I think should contain all the additional info I need. Thanks in advance. @Kingofaces43 and Tryptofish: just in case. AIRcorn (talk) 05:44, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

I don't have access to the 2014 version unfortunately. Online versions seem to pop up after a few years though, but the best I can do for anything in this decade is a hard copy from our library. If you haven't seen the executive summary for the book, this might be a little bit of help. Kingofaces43 (talk) 16:03, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
Sorry, I don't have it either. --Tryptofish (talk) 22:22, 2 March 2016 (UTC)

The Globe and Mail pre-1977 (or certain regional Canadian newspapers)

{{resolved}}

If anyone has access to The Globe and Mail from before November 1977? The years of 1970–1977 are of particular interest to me. This might take the form of microform, unfortunately, and I don't have an exact date/article I'm looking for. I'm interested in finding any/all information on Marv Allemang while he was at Acadia University (dates are likely 1971–74, but uncertain on this) and playing for the Ottawa Rough Riders (1975–76). Regional papers from Nova Scotia, such as The Chronicle Herald, might also be helpful for the Acadia stuff, as might Ottawa Citizen for the Rough Riders. Please ping me here or message me on my talk page if you have such access, as I think this article might be able to get to GA if such information is found. ~ RobTalk 15:31, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

@BU Rob13: I got some CFL articles from the globe and mail from 1974-1977. However, they aren't from when he was part of Ottawa, but it still might be helpful. Please send me an email. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 20:28, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

Bitter Dawn, used in Murder of Anni Dewani

Bitter Dawn
Author: Dan Newling
ISBN: 9781868426249
Publisher: Johnathan Ball
ASIN: B00OYTE3NS
The Murder of Anni Dewani article makes extensive use of Bitter Dawn. The author who's added the refs hasn't targeted them (i.e. no page numbers) and was involved in a vicious content dispute on the article last year (resolved in his favour). I trust him to correctly represent what the book says, but it might be best if someone else confirms that the refs support the statements. Is it possible to get access to the entire book? It has been released in eBook form.[12] Thanks, Bromley86 (talk) 19:40, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

  • Bromley86, we don't handle full books here on RX. If you live in the U.S. you can order that Kindle edition. If not, you can try Scribd: [13]. Check this article which summarizes the book: [14].

inquiry from the de-WP

Dear friends from the en-WP, is this Google Book available in full view and downloadable in the United States? In Germany, this is not the case. The book was published in 1912, and the author Paul Hambruch died in 1933. Therefore the copyright has expired not only in the United States, but also in most European countries, and perhaps Worldwide. Perhaps Google overlooked this. --Ratzer (talk) 20:45, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

1912 is to late, there is rare access. Mostly antil ~1910. Tested with proxy from list in s:de:gbs#Liste aktueller Web-Anonymizer --Franz (Fg68at) de:Talk 13:40, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
But there is a (qualitative better as Google) scan at https://archive.org/details/landeskundevonsc00hamb --Franz (Fg68at) de:Talk 13:49, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
Google and HathiTrust both default to a simplistic, safe-for-them approach to copyright, especially for users outside the US. The corresponding HathiTrust record doesn't have a death date for Hambruch, but they will likely be persuaded by the VIAF entry to revise their record. I've just notified them, so we'll see how long they take to respond. LeadSongDog come howl! 16:30, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
HathiTrust knows the death year of Paul Hambruch, see here.--Ratzer (talk) 10:09, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
So he may have two distinct records there, one with just the birth date and another with both. Anyhow, they've replied that the correction is in their work queue; they'll get to it eventually. VIAF and GND show a revision in his authority records just this February, but they do not reveal what that revision was. They have no diff accessible to users. It is likely just a case of needing this to percolate through the copyright administration mill. LeadSongDog come howl! 17:16, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

It's in the public domain in the UK (life+75 years - author died in 1919) and in the US, but Hathi Trust is being rather conservative. You'll need a university library login, I think.
