Thanks for letting me know. I'm doing Italy and Spain. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 15:07, 18 April 2017 (UTC)reply

Sent those two. France still needed. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 05:36, 21 April 2017 (UTC)reply

The France one is not likely unless we have any volunteers in the London area. Perhaps reach out at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject London to see if someone can track down the one copy? ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 23:04, 23 April 2017 (UTC)reply

Rob, per the Italy book you sent me I created the Wikiquote article q:Ciro Paoletti. However the Spain book is a compilation of chapters from various experts. Can you look in the Bibliography section (page 201-213) if the book contains any similar bibliographical essay? If it is just plain list I don't need it however if it is an essay then I wonder if you would be able to sent me that. I am going to post a request at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history if they can do something with the France book. Solomon7968 13:33, 25 April 2017 (UTC)reply

You could reach out to individual editors at the London project. The point is just to find a Wikipedian who happens to live in London. I'll take a look at the Spain book and send you the bibliography. You have a better idea of what you're looking for. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 14:02, 25 April 2017 (UTC)reply

@Solomon7968: Having difficulty remembering - did I ever get back to you on checking the Spain book again? ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 17:30, 7 May 2017 (UTC)reply

{{Resolved}} As the resources on this work is scant, acquiring this source would be great and beneficial to several Dvaita articles. Prabhanjanmutalik (talk • contribs)

Wikipedia cannot handle full book scans. Woebegone (talk) 18:03, 26 April 2017 (UTC)reply

Even the introduction/preface section would be welcome. Prabhanjanmutalik (talk • contribs) —Preceding undated comment added 20:30, 26 April 2017 (UTC)reply

@Prabhanjanmutalik: We can only provide scans of sections of books to make specific improvements. We can't provide a scan of large sections in the hope something useful is in them. If you received a scan of a table of contents and index, would you be able to better identify what sections would be helpful? ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 21:19, 26 April 2017 (UTC)reply

Okay so here is my issue. I need to create an article on this very book of which I have only one source (this being the other one). Usually the Introduction sections of these books contain the summary of the book and the author (which I desperately need). What would you advise me to do? Prabhanjanmutalik (talk) 22:13, 26 April 2017 (UTC)reply

In that case, yes, we have a strong rationale to scan the introduction. I was just trying to ensure we weren't scanning a random section hoping it might contain something you find interesting. That would be a copyright issue. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 22:39, 26 April 2017 (UTC)reply

{{Resolved}} All for Midnight poem:

1. Denys Page (1962). Poetae Melici Graeci. Section on fr. 976, which appears to begin (at least according to Google Books' snippet view) on p.520.
2. E.M. Voigt (1971). Sappho et Alcaeus. Section on fr. 168B. I can't find out which pages this is, but I can't imagine that it's more than a few pages. Also her conspectus metrorum and comparatio numerorum for Sappho would be useful, not just for this article.

--Caeciliusinhorto (talk) 08:41, 4 May 2017 (UTC)reply

Caeciliusinhorto, I've got the first one – there's only half a page on fr. 976. E-mail me so I can send it to you. – Uanfala (talk) 11:54, 16 May 2017 (UTC)reply

Received first from Uanfala. Thanks! Caeciliusinhorto (talk) 14:15, 16 May 2017 (UTC)reply

I've also now sent you the section on fr. 168B. But how about conspectus metrorum and comparatio numerorum? Are they parts of the same book? – Uanfala (talk) 10:39, 19 May 2017 (UTC)reply

Uanfala thanks, got it! There is a conspectus metrorum and comparatio numerorum in Voigt 1971, I believe. (I've not actually seen a copy, so I don't know for sure, but stuff I have read seems to say that it does). They would be part of either the front- or back-matter of the book. The comparatio numerorum is basically a table relating the different sets of numeration for the poems together, so you can look up e.g. fr. 168 B (Voigt) and be told that it is fr. 58 Bergk, fr. 94 Diehl, and fr. 976 PMG. A conspectus metrorum is an overview of metres, I don't know what form exactly it will take in Voigt I am afraid.

Don't worry too much if you can't find them, though; the commentary you did get me from Voigt relieves my concerns about the meter of the midnight poem. Caeciliusinhorto (talk) 16:28, 19 May 2017 (UTC)reply

@Caeciliusinhorto: Taking a look for this. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 22:10, 22 May 2017 (UTC)reply

{{resolved}} Daines Barrington wrote an "Essay on The Language of Birds" which was apparently reprinted in Thomas Pennant's British Zoology volume 3 - however looking up these sources does not let me find an online version. I am pretty sure this must be online somewhere but my Google-Fu fails me. Thanks in Advance. Shyamal (talk) 01:32, 22 May 2017 (UTC)reply

Shyamal, I don't have time to properly search for it, but you might try these. In the 1812 edition, vol III is reptiles & fish; vol II is birds, and the only Barrington I found was this. You may have to do some digging and look at each individual version of each volume; searching from the index page (i.e. using my first link above and simply adding "Barrington") isn't reliable. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 02:34, 22 May 2017 (UTC)reply

@Shyamal: Despite finding sources that say it appears in volume 3 there's no reference to birds by Barrington. The closest one that I can find is an essay called Experiments and Observations on the Singing of Birds by Barrington reprinted in volume 2 birds. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 02:46, 22 May 2017 (UTC)reply

Many Thanks @BlackcurrantTea: @MrLinkinPark333: !- I have already run through all of these - I still do not think that essay was titled differently. Shyamal (talk) 03:44, 22 May 2017 (UTC)reply

@Shyamal: I've found a letter about the language of birds to Barrington, from Gilbert White. The full letter is here. I could be way off still. --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 03:58, 22 May 2017 (UTC)reply

Shyamal, this may be what you're looking for: Of the Language of Birds. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 02:49, 23 May 2017 (UTC)reply

BlackcurrantTea - thank you, that is a useful source for a few bits of biographical info - but I am not convinced that that essay is by Barrington. Curiously though, this essay is not actually found in the editions of Smellie's Philosophy of Natural History that are online - iarchive:philosophynatur03waregoog, iarchive:philosophyofna00smel and iarchive:philosophyof00smel - I am going to consider this as a possible error by Barrington's original biographers - maybe it was just a reference to his other essays on bird song etc. which perhaps somehow got italicised to indicate a more specific title. Shyamal (talk) 03:37, 23 May 2017 (UTC)reply

I agree with your conclusion, Shyamal. Mentions of it are scattered around, but I looked at several editions of Pennant's British Zoology, and all I could find was Experiments & Observations. This, by the way, is a nice clean copy of it.

This paper states that John Aikin quoted Language of Birds in "An Essay on the Application of Natural History to Poetry," specifically in reference to nightingales. Here is Aikin's essay, with the mention of nightingales, referring to the "same ingenious paper of Barrington's," as quoted in the nightingale essay. Going back a few pages to find out which paper he's referring to, it turns out to be Experiments & Observations. BlackcurrantTea (talk) 04:50, 23 May 2017 (UTC)reply

The actual book with the content you're looking for is Safavid Government Institutions by Willem Floor.

Hello. I would like add to the Victoria Park, Los Angeles page. I would like a link - from Newspapers.com - to the article titled "L.A. by Any Other Name : One Man Crusades to Bring Back Neighborhoods' Nostalgic Titles" from January 28, 1995, page 43.

Here is a link: https://www.newspapers.com/image/158986617/?terms=%22victoria%2Bpark%22

There is an online version of this article through the LA Times archives, but for some reason the Times has dropped the accompanying photo. The article is about a sign that was specifically made for the neighborhood and should be visible when someone clicks on the citation. Phatblackmama (talk) 20:42, 8 May 2017 (UTC)reply

@Phatblackmama: We'll not be able to fulfill this request. This newspaper is only available with the (very expensive) Publisher Extra level of access to Newspapers.com, and that access isn't something anyone has here. (It's beyond the level of access the Wikipedia Library grants.) As you already have access to the source elsewhere, I gather that a copy for-your-eyes-only wouldn't do you any good, and we can't provide a copy of anything to be uploaded for people to see, as that would be a copyright issue. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 01:04, 22 May 2017 (UTC)reply
