For [[Chinese alligator]]; I primarily would like to know what it says about the alligator's association with the [[Chinese dragon]]. Of course, viewing the whole text would be ideal but it's really the Chinese dragon association that I need to know more about to add to the article, as the current section is quite short and only cites one source.

:{{ping|SkyGazer 512}} The book is available for preview on GBooks. A search for dragon in the book (for me) shows 8 out of 10 available pages. Any particular pages unavailable for you? --[[User:MrLinkinPark333|MrLinkinPark333]] ([[User talk:MrLinkinPark333|talk]]) 19:51, 27 December 2018 (UTC)

::{{ping|MrLinkinPark333}} When I search for "dragon" on Google Books (I've already used some other pages in the book unrelated to "dragon" which are available for preview as sources in the article), it also brings up 10 pages, but every single one of them says "No preview available for this page". It would be primarily ''Chapter 4: Alligators as Dragons'' that I'm looking for, which is from page 49 to 72.--<span style="font-family: AR BERKLEY; text-shadow: 2px 5px 5px gray;">[[User:SkyGazer 512|SkyGazer 512]]</span> ^{<span style="background: linear-gradient(aqua, #d580ff);">[[User talk:SkyGazer 512|Oh no, what did I do this time?]]</span>} 03:22, 28 December 2018 (UTC)

:::{{ping|SkyGazer 512}} Interestingly, if I click on preview this book all of Chapter 4 is available to me. Maybe you have a page view limit? Try clicking on preview this book at [https://books.google.ca/books?id=cxot9NfCs14C the link.] --[[User:MrLinkinPark333|MrLinkinPark333]] ([[User talk:MrLinkinPark333|talk]]) 03:26, 28 December 2018 (UTC)

::::{{ping|MrLinkinPark333}} Strange; I'm still getting the same "No preview available for this page" message.--<span style="font-family: AR BERKLEY; text-shadow: 2px 5px 5px gray;">[[User:SkyGazer 512|SkyGazer 512]]</span> ^{<span style="background: linear-gradient(aqua, #d580ff);">[[User talk:SkyGazer 512|Oh no, what did I do this time?]]</span>} 03:28, 28 December 2018 (UTC)

:::::{{ping|SkyGazer 512}} Maybe check [https://books.google.ca/books?id=cxot9NfCs14C&lpg=PP1&pg=PA49#v=onepage&q&f=false here] without the search result or close the tab/reopen it. If all fails, I can send over screenshots of the chapter? Oh and check the above request. Maybe that is why too with similar page viewage issues. --[[User:MrLinkinPark333|MrLinkinPark333]] ([[User talk:MrLinkinPark333|talk]]) 03:31, 28 December 2018 (UTC)

::::::{{ec}} {{ping|MrLinkinPark333}} Hmm, still getting "You have either reached a page that is unavailable for viewing or reached your viewing limit for this book" when I click on the link, with no preview available.--<span style="font-family: AR BERKLEY; text-shadow: 2px 5px 5px gray;">[[User:SkyGazer 512|SkyGazer 512]]</span> ^{<span style="background: linear-gradient(aqua, #d580ff);">[[User talk:SkyGazer 512|Oh no, what did I do this time?]]</span>} 03:34, 28 December 2018 (UTC)

:::::::Per the request above, I might try another computer and see if anything changes when I get the chance (which I don't currently).--<span style="font-family: AR BERKLEY; text-shadow: 2px 5px 5px gray;">[[User:SkyGazer 512|SkyGazer 512]]</span> ^{<span style="background: linear-gradient(aqua, #d580ff);">[[User talk:SkyGazer 512|Oh no, what did I do this time?]]</span>} 03:35, 28 December 2018 (UTC)]]

:::::::::Okay. I can send over screenshots of the chapter, and then once you eventually get access to the other computer, let me know if the chapter is giving you page viewage issues. --[[User:MrLinkinPark333|MrLinkinPark333]] ([[User talk:MrLinkinPark333|talk]]) 03:38, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
