Any or all you can provide would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. --[[User:Merlinme|Merlinme]] ([[User talk:Merlinme|talk]]) 13:33, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

:Are you looking to confirm that the above five sources exist or to confirm the information in the [[Avicenna]] article that is sourced to the references? -- [[User:Jreferee|Jreferee]] ([[User talk:Jreferee|talk]]) 17:18, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

::See {{OL|16025370W}} for Hockey. Sabra excerpted [http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/perspectives_on_science/v006/6.3sabra.html here]. (Commentary at {{MR|1873205}} by Saliba on Sabra is interesting too.)

:::Thanks. I've been off sick for a while, apologies for delay in replying. In answer to the first question, I know the sources exist, the question is whether they actually support the statements made e.g. about Avicenna observing the transit of Venus, that Venus is closer to the Sun than the Earth, etc. etc. The material was added by [[User:Jagged_85]], an editor notorious for misrepresenting sources, generally to make muslim and Eastern achievements sound more impressive. If I can't verify the sources I will delete the material. --[[User:Merlinme|Merlinme]] ([[User talk:Merlinme|talk]]) 09:15, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

::::Sorry, I'm afraid the provided sources were not terribly helpful. Both the Sabra and the Saliba on Sabra are protected by paywalls. The Open Library link is to the Biographical ''dictionary'' of ''scientists'', David Abbott, not the Biographical ''Encyclopedia'' of ''Astronomers'', Hockey. The latter does not have an e-readable version on Open Library.

After a google search, the only link I could find was on academia.edu, but the page had a message about the author not having uploaded the paper yet. Thanks to anyone who can find it. [[User:Reid,iain james|Iainstein]] ([[User talk:Reid,iain james|talk]]) 15:44, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

'''New paper needed''' this one {{doi|10.1016/j.cretres.2012.05.004}}, is for the same article, and has been published, but I can't access. Could someone find it for me? Many thanks, [[User:Reid,iain james|Iainstein]] ([[User talk:Reid,iain james|talk]]) 04:35, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

I just want something to help me and my students of English to improve their general English vocabulary.

Thanks.

:I don't have that, but would you like the article from American National Biography Online? [[User:John M Baker|John M Baker]] ([[User talk:John M Baker|talk]]) 02:24, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

:: Thank you John, I already have ANB entry. Best, [[User:Filip em|Filip em]] ([[User talk:Filip em|talk]]) 20:09, 6 February 2014 (UTC)

:Hathitrust search of that issue finds two hits each for "Manfred" and "Sakel" on p.747, but it is search-only due to copyright limitations. A large physical reference library is probably your best bet.

So back to the top: I need half-a-dozen CJES articles in the range of 1977-1994. Anyone? ~ [[User:J. Johnson|J.&nbsp;Johnson (JJ)]] ([[User_talk:J. Johnson|talk]]) 01:15, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

I'm only looking for the full bibliographical reference (I'm missing author, title and page range). Note that "series 2" is likely to be "new series" or "nouvelle série". --[[User:Circeus|Circéus]] ([[User talk:Circeus|talk]]) 22:08, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

::A) If it was that easy, I wouldn't be asking.

::B) To be more exact, if there was more than one out of fifteen volumes of the new series, (the article I'm missing info about is in volume 2 of said series), I wouldn't be asking.
