== Business Week 1984 ==
Hello! I'm working on the article [[Atari 8-bit family]]. Who knows where to find online archives of Business Week magazine? From Business Week of May 21, 1984, there is allegedly this quotation: "Atari expect the new Lucasfilm software to stimulate sales of future games machines while tapping an existing market of 4 million owners of Atari's home computer and 5200 games machines". That's all the information I have. I have searched ProQuest and EBSCO on [[WP:LIBRARY]] but maybe I did it wrong. Thank you so much. — <span style="font-variant:small-caps">[[User:Smuckola|Smuckola]][[User talk:Smuckola|(talk)]]</span> 03:50, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
:@{{u|Smuckola}}, I have access to this one; [[Special:EmailUser/Extraordinary Writ|email me]] and I'll send you the PDF. Cheers, [[User:Extraordinary Writ|Extraordinary Writ]] ([[User talk:Extraordinary Writ|talk]]) 05:10, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
::{{reply to|Extraordinary Writ}} Done. Thanks! And if anyone can let me know if there's an online source for Business Week, that'd be great! — <span style="font-variant:small-caps">[[User:Smuckola|Smuckola]][[User talk:Smuckola|(talk)]]</span> 08:52, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
:::{{ping|Smuckola}} {{sent}}. [https://archive.org/details/pub_business-week The Internet Archive] has coverage through 1961, but I'm not aware of an easy way to access anything after that, unfortunately: as far as I can tell, it's only available through [https://www.ebsco.com/products/magazine-archives/bloomberg-businessweek-magazine-archive this special EBSCO database], which the Wikipedia Library doesn't subscribe to. If you need any more ''BusinessWeek'' articles, feel free to leave a message here and one of us with access to the EBSCO database would be happy to send it to you.

::::{{reply to|Extraordinary Writ}} Thanks. I googled and I can't find how to fill in the citation, like volume or issue, and I'm not sure whether ISSN is necessary because I rarely see it. This is a good magazine article to spread around citations into several Wikipedia articles. <nowiki>{{cite magazine | magazine=[[Bloomberg Businessweek|Businessweek]] | date=May 21, 1984 | title=Atari refuses to let the video game fad die | page=46 | volume= | issue= | issn= | publisher=[[McGraw Hill Education]]}}</nowiki> — <span style="font-variant:small-caps">[[User:Smuckola|Smuckola]][[User talk:Smuckola|(talk)]]</span> 02:38, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
:::::Looks good, {{u|Smuckola}}. The database tells me that this is issue no. 2843; there doesn't appear to be a volume number, so you can just leave that parameter blank. Including the ISSN (0007-7135) probably isn't a bad idea, although it's not required. You can also add <code><nowiki>via=[[EBSCOhost]]</nowiki></code> if you want to make clear where the article came from.

::::::{{reply to|Extraordinary Writ}} You are truly a Writ among writs. Out of the ordinary, and possibly even mildly outrageous. Please let me know if I can assist you with anything. The source has been cited, long live Jambi. I sure wish [[WP:LIBRARY]]'s GUI wasn't only a blatant giant zoo, though I know it is by benevolent necessity. I wish it at least had a single search box, even if I had to wait 30 minutes for results lol. I basically stick to trade magazines and newspapers, so I often must do countless redundant searches. The bare minimum is EBSCO, ProQuest, newspapers.com, Google Books, and sometimes Newspaper Archive. It's so overwhelming and I don't know how to determine the names of individual publications I can and can't search! I don't know what's included, to even answer the question of whether or not I've even searched BusinessWeek among all that lol. There are a ton of stupid meta-search checkboxes ahead of EBSCO and ProQuest alone and I can't imagine how it would be possible to ever understand what I'm even looking at or opting into before I've even input a keyword. Then it gives me a beautiful search result and soon times out and barfs it all on the floor so I can start it all over again. Am I baying into the wind along with other very smart very normal users or am I just a loser, baby? — <span style="font-variant:small-caps">[[User:Smuckola|Smuckola]][[User talk:Smuckola|(talk)]]</span> 07:38, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
:::::::{{u|Smuckola}}, the WP:LIBRARY folks actually have been working on one search engine to rule them all—there's now a search bar at the top of https://wikipedialibrary.wmflabs.org/users/my_library/ that searches EBSCO, Gale, JSTOR, and a whole bunch of other databases. Unfortunately it doesn't yet include ProQuest, Newspapers.com, or Newspaper Archive, but at least it's better than nothing. I can certainly sympathize about how difficult it can be to find where (if anywhere) a publication is available. One trick on ProQuest is to click the "publications" tab, which lets you search by the name of the publication (for instance, searching "Los Angeles Times" shows you how to access the paper, while searching "BusinessWeek" brings up...nothing). I think EBSCO has a similar feature, although I'm not too familiar with it. And, of course, if there's anything you can't find, you're always welcome to pay us a visit here and someone will probably be able to put you on the right track.

For [[Ormon Khan]]. From ''The Šabdan Baatir Codex: Epic and the Writing of Northern Kirghiz History'' by Daniel Prior, I need the chapter "''The Battle Between Kene Khan, Descendent of Ablay Khan, and the Kirghiz in 1846''", which begins at [https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_%C5%A0abdan_Baat_r_Codex/9z745GFtHp0C?hl=en&gbpv=1&pg=PA332 Page 332], which is exactly where the GBooks preview ends. I am not sure exactly how long it is, but judging from previous chapters it should be 5-10 pages.
