SamuelRiv, the article can be found here, and the full page here. (It's page 17; changing the "0017" in the URL will give you the other pages, too.)

I am interested in the writing of the British press after the assassination of parliament members of the National Assembly in the Kingdom of SHS.
TheDiaboloBoy, I found this in the Observer. I didn't see anything in the Guardian, but it's possible I missed something—do you happen to have the page number? I also found this and this in the Daily Telegraph, in case it's useful. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to look for. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 21:10, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The school was first established around 1966. Unfortunately I do not have access to pre-1993 South China Morning Post articles, and so I am very interested in reading some of the older articles to see if any can be good sources for the article on the Japanese school. I'd also like to see if the SCMP had any coverage of the Hong Kong Post, a newspaper for Japanese people in Hong Kong.

Computer Trade Weekly was a British weekly trade newspaper that covered computers and video games, spanning from 1984 to 1998. Although it was a respectable source at the time, it is notoriously difficult to find archives of on the Internet. Out of all the hundreds of issues they had ever released, I managed to find and download exactly one, although granted I might have been able to uncover a second issue had I decided to grind the search engines of Google and the Internet Archive.
For Amiga 600, I am looking for an article about the CeBIT 1992 show that mentions the Amiga 600 as one of the products being released there. This newspaper was reportedly the outlet that broke the Amiga 600 story. There is very little I know about the article. I do not know what issue the article appeared in, let alone the page numbers. Based on the issue I downloaded, it might have been #378. All I know is that it was reportedly published on March 16, 1992. I am betting that the only way I could obtain a copy of the article is from someone who has a physical copy of the issue, so if you have one, please send it. Thanks, FreeMediaKid$06:17, 26 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I searched the internet for more details about the newspaper, and searching "CTW" on portal.issn.org, I found out its ISSN: 1355-6142. I hope this helps you as it will help me. FreeMediaKid$03:48, 2 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

{{resolved}}Colin MacInnes, "Arts in society. Photo pageants", New Society, 16 August 1973. Page number(s) unknown. Probably a short article; "Photo pageants" may be a subtitle, but very likely it's instead the title of a short piece within a longer one titled "Arts in society".
NB New Society, a British weekly magazine, was not the same as New Statesman & Society.

Your Google Books link shows 83 pages only for this book. – Doc Taxon • Talk • 11:17, 25. Nov 2022 (UTC)
I can't help that the source is contradictory. It also shows discussion of Nadine Ivanitzky on page 100. I cannot provide an explanation, as I can't see the book, nor do I live in a place that has a library facility. Whatever page it appears on, I need the context for the discussion on Ivanitzky. SusunW (talk) 20:05, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Worldbruce: I wonder what you ordered by ILL, because the page numbers are a little weird. Please tell me more about it to learn eventual alternatives. Thank you – Doc Taxon • Talk • 11:06, 26. Nov 2022 (UTC)
@SusunW and Doc Taxon:Les portulans grecs II does not contain any mentions of Ivanitzky. Why does a Google search say it does, on a page 100 that it doesn't have? Most likely, Google scanned multiple works into a single file, then attached the metadata of just the first work to the file. What is the work that actually contains the information about Ivanitzky?
You can ask Google by starting from the link you gave above, and clicking the link "Where's the rest of this book?" Then, in the "Report problems" section, click "contact us". Then click the radio button "I have a question or feedback about a book". Describe the symptoms and they will examine the file and correct the metadata (maybe even split the file into multiple works).
Most likely you want Frost, Henry H. (1960). The functional sociology of Emile Waxweiler. Mémoires. Vol. LIII(5). Brussels: Académie royale des sciences, des lettres et des beaux-arts de Belgique. pp. 99-101 (or whatever pages mention Ivanitzky). OCLC4790370. I say that because Les Portulans Grecs II is Mémoires volume LIII(1), and Nadine Ivanitzky wrote about Emile Waxweiler in 1917. Frost likely cites Ivanitzky and/or discusses her work. I don't have ready access to Frost's work, but another volunteer may be able to help you. --Worldbruce (talk) 04:28, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Worldbruce thank you so much. I shall try that. Truly appreciate your assistance. It's hard not having access to library services and I genuinely appreciate the work everyone here at the exchange does. SusunW (talk) 04:39, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Eddie891 That would be fabulous. I sent an e-mail to google books with a copy of the link saying "The snippet says the book contains information on Nadine Ivanitzky on page 100, but also states that there are only 83 pages in the book. An interlibrary loan of "Les portulans grecs", volume II, confirms Ivanitzky is not listed in the book. Can you please advise where the information on Ivanitzky which shows in the link (gave link) is derived and how I can access same?" To which they replied. Can you explain in detail what the problem is and provide a screen shot? o.0 I replied with said screen shot, but obviously have doubts that there is comprehension of the issue... SusunW (talk) 15:02, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No worries Eddie891. My update from Google is that there is a failure to communicate. They sent me a canned message saying the book is copyrighted and they cannot provide me full access. My reply was that was good to know but not what I asked, since I had told them in the first email that it had been ordered through inter-library loan and access wasn't the problem. I explained again that it appears that they have scanned multiple books and failed to separate them resulting in a search which provides the wrong book title for the information in Ivanitzky, since Les Portulans grecs (vol 2) has only 80 pages and no page 100 with information on her. I repeated that I was asking them to review the metadata and correct the error in their records so that a search for the information on Ivanitzky results in an association with the book in which she actually appears. Their response (now the 4th message from them that has said absolutely nothing) was we have received your request and will let you know when we have more info. *Sigh* SusunW (talk) 15:07, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
