Frankfurter Rundschau

For Margaret Carroux (draft), I am looking for her obituary that apparently only appeared in the paper version of the Frankfurter Rundschau, which has no online archive. Specifically, I would like be able to confirm her maiden name and dates of birth and death that are given in de:Margaret Carroux. Date and page number taken from here.

For Minecraft – Volume Alpha. Likely going to be a necessary source if I try to take the article beyond GA as it appears to be the only academic source that (seemingly) mentions the album and talks about several individual songs. As many pages as possible would be preferred.

The Fierce Vienna, Catalan, and Sidelines

For Draft:Devin gambit, I have been looking for sources to expand on the 3. ...d5 lines. According to Chessable search, this course has some material about a particular line in this gambit (1.d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. g4 d5), and I suspect that the relevant text content is in the "16) 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 - 3rd Move Alternatives" chapter. This was played by Espineko in response to Mamedyarov's use of the gambit in the 2022 Tata Steel Masters at Wijk aan Zee. If I could get just the text explanation of each of the variations involving the move order 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e6 3. g4 d5, as if one were in the "book" mode, that would be sufficient.

Thank you!

Animated-show compendium request

For Draft:Kimboo, about a long-overlooked Franco-Ivorian animated series from the turn of the 1990s. This section, I clearly remember from perusing through this source back in my Waterbury days, mentions that it was the first animated material to air on BET. Need source to verify and refresh my memory; Open Library/Archive.org does have Television Cartoon Shows listed, but only the original 1995 edition (in which our show du jour is not listed). McFarland is a WP:Library partner, so a signup for its archives to find out might be arranged in due course. (Potential DYK in the works, planned for completion this weekend.)

Speaking of Waterbury, see also my CLA News & Views filing from days earlier (re: Draft:Silas Bronson Library).

All the best...

Possibly OCLC 470930246 also refers to this magazine. In 2007 the 2nd and 3rd issues of Au sud de l’Est : les cultures des Balkans were published. Like with the identifier that I put above in the template for the 3rd one there's also another identifier very clearly referred to the second one [1], so this unnumbered one could refer to any of the two.

Biography of Mother Solomon

  • Marsh, Thelma R. (1984). Daughter of Grey Eyes: The Story of Mother Solomon. OCLC 11815829.

For User:Averageuntitleduser/Mother Solomon. Although self-published, it has been touted extensively by Labelle 2021 and newspapers of the time. I am looking for as many pages as is possible or reasonable. I'd be happy with any range, but am most interested in her activities in Kansas and work as a nanny upon returning to Ohio, the general 40s area seems a safe bet. I have found no online copy, and HaithiTrust is a dead end, but it is held by a handful of universities, like Indiana and Cornell, as well as some local Ohian libraries.

Santa Barbara newspaper articles about the movie Foes

Foes ([3]) is an obscure science fiction film that was shot in the Santa Barbara, California, area (and on Anacapa Island) around 1977. There's very little information about it. I think it's possible that newspapers in the Santa Barbara area wrote about the filming. The newspapers are digitized, but access is restricted: [4]. On the off-chance that there's someone who's local to Santa Barbara and able to visit the public library, good keywords would be "John Coats" (director), "Foes" (title), "UFO" (major plot element). I realize that this is an unusual and difficult ask.

Thanks, Mackensen (talk) 02:33, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regular Newspapers.com (WP:Library-wise) only shows a smattering of local TV listings from the early 1980s--all of them from Philadelphia. Googling 'Foes - "John Coats"' gives us a couple more pointers which may or may not be reliable. Unsure whether it passes WP:NFILM yet. (As an aside, I'm in Florida.)
P.S. I'm assuming you know about the 2019 Blu-ray too, right? --Slgrandson (How's my egg-throwing coleslaw?) 09:50, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Addendum: This got reviewed in the British trades--Screen International and Monthly Film Bulletin--but a UK release from back then appears uncertain per the linked WordPressed tip. Now that I've looked a bit further, this may squeak past the WP guidelines just yet. You'll just have to wait... --Slgrandson (How's my egg-throwing coleslaw?) 10:03, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Slgrandson Yes, I own the Blu-ray :). Based on broadly-available online sources I doubt it would pass WP:NFILM, but I'm hoping that offline or more limited sources (such as the Santa Barbara papers) might help establish something. Mackensen (talk) 11:15, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Mackensen: Digitized newspapers available through the Santa Barbara Public Library are unlikely to help you. Only two in their list are available for the late seventies: Carpinteria Herald and Goleta Sun. They can be searched via newspapers.com even without an account.[5][6] They return zero results for "John Coats" Foes. If you would like the reviews from The Hollywood Reporter and Screen International, email me. --Worldbruce (talk) 06:56, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
