- Hi Tavantius, I have bad news. PAGASA provides no response. I've been calling their trunklines multiple times, but they (the local lines themselves, not necessarily the data) are "unavailable" from what I received. I was being directed to different departments, then eventually the data specialists of "1122" line. When I call their local line, I receive that their line in unavailable at the moment. The best I can advise is send an email yourself and be as detailed as possible (e.g. your info: name, organization, which they asked from me). You can ask again in WP:TAMBAY. For me, it would be very unlikely I'll send the cyclone report this month (or year, even). I'm sorry. RFNirmala (talk) 03:04, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

Access to German tale published in 1971

I'm asking for tale "Die Königstochter und der Drache", which is a variant of type ATU 425B, "Son of the Witch", to which Cupid and Psyche belongs. However, the tale is treated by some scholars as the oral adaption of the myth via a written version by Albert Ludwig Grimm. I plan to write the article following this line of scholarship, although I should mention that the tale was cited in the book "Off with Their heads" as how the Cupid and Psyche tale goes from oral to written (Apuleius) to oral again (this tale). I intend to emulate the Ála flekks saga article, which is listed as a predecessor to the "Snow White" tale type (ATU 709).
