:[[User:Zigzig20s|Zigzig20s]], the entry for Eberstadt is so brief that I will just reproduce it here:

:"Nicholas Eberstadt 1955–

:American political economist and demographer

:Though he may not always recognise his bondage, modern man lives under a tyranny of numbers.

:The Tyranny of Numbers: Mismeasurement and Misrule (1995), 1"

: I'm using the online version of Oxford Reference, so I don't have a page number from the dictionary that I can cite. [[User:John M Baker|John M Baker]] ([[User talk:John M Baker|talk]]) 02:26, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

::OK. Thanks for this. I cited the book (for his birth year) and I'd like to add the page number to the citation. Is anyone able to find the book in a library and check for me please?[[User:Zigzig20s|Zigzig20s]] ([[User talk:Zigzig20s|talk]]) 02:30, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

:::[[User:Zigzig20s|Zigzig20s]], I'm not sure how good a source a quotations dictionary is for an author's birth year. I've emailed you his articles from Contemporary Authors Online and The Writers Directory. [[User:John M Baker|John M Baker]] ([[User talk:John M Baker|talk]]) 12:42, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

::::[[User:John M Baker]]: OK thanks. I do have an account on Gale but I am trying to cite it properly; maybe you could help. Or join our conversation [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Anupmehra#Gale_reference there]. In any case, this request may be closed. Thanks.[[User:Zigzig20s|Zigzig20s]] ([[User talk:Zigzig20s|talk]]) 21:40, 27 October 2016 (UTC)
