Wikipedia:WikiProject Resource Exchange/Resource Request
- See also WP:MHL#LIBRARY for military history resources
The Resource Request is where you can request information on a subject or request a specific article, if you lack a source for a Wikipedia article.

Warning: for legal reasons, we must note that the Resource Exchange cannot fix any medical problems. But it can fix references.
Making a request:
- A request may be an open question for more information on a specific subject, or you may ask for a specific journal article or work which has been cited but you lack the relevant text. Someone may be able to help you.
- All kinds of sources are possible here: any newspaper or magazine article, searches in a commercial full-text newspaper or journal databases, searches in academic journal databases, encyclopedia articles, court decisions, laws, academic publications or research results, biographies, etc. (but note that requests for full book scans will not be handled)
- Be aware that you are perfectly entitled to send a message to the [lead] author(s) of scientific research papers to ask for a copy of their paper directly.
- If you are looking for a book, have you tried to access it from Google Books? (Be aware, however, that many books in Google Books cannot be entirely consulted online, and in many cases just a few pages can be accessed.) Your local library may also be able to acquire it through interlibrary loan.
- To make a request, you may either contact directly one of the people who have listed themselves below under Direct contact or follow the procedure here for making a general request on this page.
- To get email replies without disclosing your email address publicly, configure "My preferences, User profile, Email options".
- Start a new section at the end of the 'New requests' section at the foot of this page and sign with your username (four tildes). Request specific titles, dates, or a combination of search keywords. You also may specify which database or work to search in. Add as much detail as possible as this speeds up the whole process, including as full of a citation as possible instead of just a weblink. Try to provide a DOI for an electronic document or an ISBN for a book.
- If you are requesting multiple sources, numbering them (1, 2, 3..) can help to keep the subsequent discussion clear.
- Keep an eye on your request on this page to acknowledge questions and remarks promptly.
- Once a request has been fulfilled, add a note to that effect to your request so that the work won't be duplicated by others. The {{Resolved}} template is appropriate. The request then will later be moved to the 'Filled requests' section.
Responding to a request
- Anyone may offer advice and fulfill requests. People whose library provides access to a relevant database or to an extensive (academic) archive, or anyone who has a personal collection of resources is particularly well placed.
- Edit any questions and replies into the relevant section of this page. Indicate which part or parts of the request you consider you have answered so others do not duplicate your work.
- Mark the request using {{ping|REQUESTER_USERNAME}} so that the requester is notified.
- If you decide to transfer an electronic document to the requester this will normally be done either (a) by giving a URL ( http://... ) pointing to a web resource or (b) by email to the requester.
- (a) Web document. Edit the URL into the relevant section. If the document is not already on a web server you may be able to upload it to one, provided it is legal for you to do so. Be sure to respect copyrights and terms of services of any online services you use. Copyrighted articles from print publications or copies obtained through online databases (e.g. JSTOR) may not be uploaded for unrestricted distribution via open websites.
- (b) Email, particularly for sending a document as an attachment:
- If you have configured a Wikipedia email address ("My preferences, User profile, Email options"), edit the relevant section on this page asking the requester to email you using "Email this user" so you may reply to them.
- Alternatively, and provided the requester has configured a Wikipedia email address, by going to their user page and clicking "Email this user" you can send a text message (but not an attachment) which will give the requester your own email address. In your message ask the requester to reply so you will learn their email address. Edit the relevant section of this page to tell other people what you are doing. Reply to the requester's reply with a second message which includes the relevant attachment.
- Filled and stale requests
Requests which have been filled will be archived at the Filled requests subpage .
Requests which have become stale, i.e. remain unfulfilled and have not had any response for a long period of time (three months), may be moved to the Stale requests subpage

Avicenna in "Arabic alchemy"
Hi, "Georges C. Anawati (1996), "Arabic alchemy", in Roshdi Rashed, ed., Encyclopedia of the History of Arabic Science, Vol. 3, p. 853–885 [875]" is used as a reference twice in the Avicenna article, once to provide a list of four works by Avicenna, once to support the statement: "Among his works on alchemy, Liber Aboali Abincine de Anima in arte Alchemiae was the most influential, having influenced later medieval chemists and alchemists such as Vincent of Beauvais". Please could someone send me the article, or if that's too much, the relevant pages on Avicenna / Ibn Sina. One of the things I'm interested in is whether Avicenna actually wrote the works listed in the Avicenna article, as another Anawati reference I found said Avicenna did not write three of four works attributed to him. Thanks. --Merlinme (talk) 17:30, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
- Sent. I hate it when sources are misrepresented. Anawati on 375–6 is explicit in saying that he agrees with Ruska that De anima is a fake. --Atethnekos (Discussion, Contributions) 21:41, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you. I'm afraid the misrepresentation of the source is not exactly a surprise, this is part of the WP:Requests_for_comment/Jagged_85 cleanup. Still clearing up his mess nearly four years later. --Merlinme (talk) 09:35, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
- @Merlinme: Thank you for pointing out that case to me. Anecdotally I have noticed such "boosterism"; I guess I'm not the only one. People who take part in such an activity may think they are improving the reputations of their favoured groups, but when their activity is discovered, their groups' reputations are harmed because the groups become associated with this dishonest behaviour. Also, the level of trust about claims on the topic is diminished: If such behaviour were ubiquitous for a topic, then people would simply ignore everything said about the topic, because they wouldn't trust any of it. The topic would become ignored entirely: The exact opposite of what the boosters might hope. And then there is the real harm: The people who have more than a passing interest in the topics start by being misinformed, but then—when they go on to read more on the topic—they become confused due to the conflicting reports, and their whole progress in understanding the topic is retarded. --Atethnekos (Discussion, Contributions) 04:34, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
- @Atethnekos:The Jagged_85 case is in a class of its own. I sincerely hope we never see anything like it again. What made his edits so damaging was that they looked like they were well sourced. A lot of editors don't check references; very few indeed check references which are not available online, and Jagged_85 frequently used hard to check sources with incomplete references. This was made far worse by his prodigious output, at one point he was in the top 100 editors by number of edits. He would copy the same bad material with bad references into a dozen articles. Not only does the boosterism cause confusion and perhaps even a backlash against the exaggeration, it's immensely damaging to Wikipedia's reputation. Wikipedia references are supposed to be how you know an article is well-sourced; if you can't trust what look like good references to scholarly articles, Wikipedia is nearly useless. Some of his mistakes have been used as examples in newspapers to show how unreliable Wikipedia is. I was never quite sure if they were mistakes; at the very least, he made definitive statements about things he didn't understand. Sometimes what he wrote was so ridiculous (Avicenna was the first to describe the lever was one of my favourites) then he must surely have known that he was essentially making it up.
- It can take 100 hours work to clean-up even one article, given how time consuming it is to track down all the references. It also requires a fair amount of understanding quite difficult sources. One of his favourite tactics was to use an article that mentions X and Y to say that X invented Y, and you have to understand what the article actually does say before you can correct his edit. I did a philosophy degree and I'm happy skimming scholarly articles to get the required information, but I can understand why few others have the understanding and patience to get involved. The time I have available is fairly limited, although I have a bit more at the moment. If you feel the urge to get involved, I'm sure your help would be much appreciated. --Merlinme (talk) 18:38, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

John Lovelady living persons bio
I would very much appreciate some help in finding how to help Jimmartin15 with reliable sources for John Lovelady's biography, as C.Fred has said he knows Mr. Lovelady in person, and has been in contact with the webmaster of a website with a section about Mr. Lovelady, but has had trouble finding if he can even include it without violating WP:COPYRIGHT. Many thanks, Zenvalharo (talk) 04:46, 4 January 2014 (UTC)
- Zenvalharo - I don't think Jimmartin15 can include the text of or a summary of the text of tgscoaster.com/cast/john-lovelady in Wikipedia since an "Original Fan Website Dedicated To The Great Space Coaster" probably does not meet WP:RS, even if WP:COPYRIGHT can be addressed. It is a good source to use to look for reliable sources. Some source to look at: New York Times pre-1981 search; John J.

Cook PVIs
I'm looking for a reliable source for 2010 Cook PVIs for U.S. House districts, i.e. those based on the 2004 and 2008 presidential elections and using the congressional districts that existed prior to redistricting mandated by the 2010 census (rather than those for the districts created after redistricting, which were first used in the 2012 elections). This archived page contains links to the data which presumably worked when it was published in April 2009, but no longer do (though perhaps they work for Cook subscribers)? The information is to be used in the state-by-state articles in Category:United States House of Representatives elections, 2010. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 02:46, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
- As an example, I believe that you are looking for an online source having a table that includes the 2010 Cook Partisan Voting Index for each of the seven districts mentioned in United States House of Representatives elections in Alabama, 2010, where the Cook Partisan Voting Index itself uses the 2004 and 2008 drawn districts for the 2010 Cook Partisan Voting Index. -- Jreferee (talk) 14:17, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
- Right. By way of comparison, here's the 2012 chart, which is based on the 2004 and 2008 presidential elections but uses the districts that came into effect in 2012 rather than those used in 2010. – Arms & Hearts (talk) 04:14, 9 January 2014 (UTC)

Federico Zeri visiting professorship
I am editting Federico Zeri. His Literary executioner write in bio he had been a visiting professor at Harvard and Columbia. I can't find a more objective source for exactly that. A 1966 report from Villa I Tatti put him as a guest there, (Newsletter I - January 1966.pdf (PDF), retrieved 2014-01-12) but that means staying up to a month. A letter at Harvard Crimson, mentions he had a "lectureship" sometime before 1974 [20]. On a book, Christiane L. Joost-Gaugier mentions him as her first "mentor" in Harvard, where she studied from the late fifties to 1961.[21]. What firmer Harvard (and Columbia) documents can be consulted? --trespassers william (talk) 21:28, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
- The Dictionary of Art Historians, which appears to be RS, mentions that he was a visiting professor at Harvard and Columbia, but does not say when or give any other details. Perhaps some of the sources there cited would be helpful. The school catalogs from the period likely would be primary resources, although those are probably available only at the schools themselves.

United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine
A request at the Help Desk Wikipedia:Help_desk#In_WP_terms raised an issue of whether the language "Lord Curzon, who later succeeded as foreign secretary, wrote" was supported by the source or did the source support "Lord Curzon, a British cabinet member, wrote." The editor PLNR wrote: "Considering that at the time his view was a minority view, which was voted down, and later when he came into the position of foreign secretary, his view haven't effected the British policy in that regard. So basically it used to misleadingly imply that what he wrote had more significant impact that what it did." The language "Lord Curzon, who later succeeded as foreign secretary, wrote" is in the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine article and was added 29 November 2012. The cited reference was The Arabs page 174. The citation reference now is The Arabs pp. 172–175. Please look through pp. The Arabs 172–175 and revise the Lord Curzon sentence in the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine article to reflect a summary of that source. Thanks. -- Jreferee (talk) 14:23, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
- The exact wording of the source (p175) is "Lord Curzon, who later succeeded Balfour as foreign secretary, wrote in a memorandum". The same emphasis appears in the source on page 188: "As Lord Curzon, who succeeded Balfour as foreign secretary in 1920, said openly in the House of Lords on 25 June 1929:". So this way of characterising Curzon is supported by the source. Zerotalk 06:53, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

Lo Nuestro Awards missing nominations
Currently, me and Jaespinoza are looking for nominations for the Past Lo Nuestro Awards as he's getting the category lists to FL. We've managed to get most of them, but we are missing the nominations for the years 1989, 1990, 1992, 1994, 1995, and 2000. For 1989, I could only find the nominations for the Pop Artists field on Google Books and for 2000, I could only find a partial list on both the web, books, and Google newspaper. I've searched everywhere online on Google (including Books and Newspaper), but with no luck. With little choice left, I decided to see if Newsbank possibly has them and it seems they do based on search results, but I do not have the money to purchase the articles or become a member. I do not know how to link the articles I want to see on Newsbank, but I'll post the names of them (I'm assuming they have the nominations).

Verification of Japanese Wikipedia's source stating that the perpetrator in Sasebo Slashing having been diagnosed with Asperger syndrome
ISBN-13: 978-4062130417 [22]
I mention this on the article's talk page: [23]
Unfortunately, this book is out of print; while used sources are available, they are hard to have delivered (and expensive) when you live outside of Japan. Apparently, the editors at the Japanese Wikipedia are satisfied this source satisfies the statement that the perpetrator was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, but I am told that is not good enough for the English Wikipedia. The source appears to be reliable and of high-quality, written by an investigative journalist and published by Kodansha, a major Japanese publisher. An editor of the English Wikipedia would have to verify for themselves the source.
Could an editor here take a look at and verify the source again for the purposes of the English Wikipedia, so the statement may be written in the article Sasebo Slashing?--Beneficii (talk) 22:31, 23 February 2014 (UTC)
Can someone please Find some resources for this article? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focus_the_Producer --Rico2014 (talk) 18:36, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
- Willing to be of assistance, I clicked on the conveniently provided link, and .. whoops! That article has been deleted. Three times! For: "Unambiguous advertising or promotion: no independent sources, no evidence of notability." Well, if independent sources (and any others would likely be WP:COI) simply do not exist, there is nothing to find. And that in itself is evidence of non-notability. If you don't have any sources to start with, then there is a real question of whether such an article is warranted. ~ J. Johnson (JJ) (talk) 19:28, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Greenwich University - Towards a longitudinal evaluation of policy networks and social movement outcome: social resistance to water privatisation in Cochabamba, Bolivia
Greenwich University Document - Water War in Cochabamba
Hello, for writing about the Water War of Cochabamba i'm searching for someone with access to the Greewich University Online Documents, who could help me out with Lobina, Emanuele, Popov, Vladimir, Driessen, Travis and Terhorst, Philipp (2010), "Towards a longitudinal evaluation of policy networks and social movement outcome: social resistance to water privatisation in Cochabamba, Bolivia" [24]. I'm a German Wikipedian and i put my request here, because i believe it is much more likely that someone here could have access to this content. Thanks in advance. --Julius1990 (talk) 02:12, 28 February 2014 (UTC)
