Jane's sentinel security assessment. West Africa

I used Jane's sentinel security assessment. West Africa OCLC 50683767 as an onlie ref instad of using it as an journal ref in de:Forces armées maliennes but the Link became dead. Now I'd like to have the article about the Navy (Mali) (dead link) out of the 2007 issue. Thanks, Sanandros (talk) 20:37, 11 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I requested what I think is that issue from offsite storage, will have a look within the next few days. Eddie891 Talk Work 07:52, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Sanandros, the full text of the page is:
Summary: Strength: 100.
Assessment: Mali is a landlocked state and has no formal navy or coast guard. However, the River Niger runs throughout the country and is navigable for much of its length most of the year. The river patrol forces of the army employ about 100 soldiers; they man three small river craft and are deployed for anti-smuggling patrols and counter-insurgency work along the River Niger.
Equipment in Service:
Surface Fleet: Type: Various; Role: River Patrol Craft; Quantity: 3
I don't even think it's worth scanning. Eddie891 Talk Work 14:03, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
OK thank you very much. Did u use the 2007 Issue, which page it is? Does it has another handle like ISBN or ISSN?--Sanandros (talk) 19:19, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It was on page 496. But now that I'm looking again, you know what, I looked at the 2007 edition of Jane's sentinel country risk assessments. West Africa., not the sentinel security assessment. Sorry. I don't think my uni has the sentinel security assessment. Eddie891 Talk Work 21:12, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
OK thx, I edited the article.--Sanandros (talk) 20:51, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

London Gazette 11 January 1780, "Obituary of James Cook"

  • "Obituary of James Cook". London Gazette. 11 January 1780.

The specific quote I'm looking for is:

This untimely and ever to be lamented fate of so intrepid, so able, and intelligent a sea-officer, may justly be considered as an irreparable Loss to the public... for in him were united every successful and amiable quality that could adorn his Profession; nor was his singular modesty less conspicuous than his other virtues. His successful experiments to preserve the healths of his crews are well known, and his discoveries will be an everlasting honour to his country

I found that quote in a different newspaper:

  • "Obituary of James Cook". The Norfolk Chronicle. Vol. 554. 15 January 1780.

but this latter paper is apparently just reprinting the London Gazette, but a few days later? So, I'm looking for that above quote... but it has to be in the London Gazette.

I'm basing the existence of this obit on a pretty solid source: the biography "Captain James Cook" by Richard Hough (page 364). I tried searching the online London Gazette archives, but could not find the above quote .. however, I did find an obiturary of James Cook in the London Gazette, but it had different wording (namely "CAPTAIN Clerke, of his Majesty's sloop the Resolution, in a letter to Mr. Stephens, dated the 8th of June, 1779, in the harbour of Kampschatka, which was received yesterday, gives the melancholy account of the celebrated Captain Cook.... ").

For James Cook

Thanks, Noleander (talk) 01:12, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is the only notice I found in the Gazette. FordPrefect42 (talk) 05:49, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I had found that one myself. I was looking for, apparently, a subsequent amendment to that obituary that includes that longer quote I've provided above. Noleander (talk) 06:06, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
No hit. You should consider that Richard Hough seems to have mixed up the sources. FordPrefect42 (talk) 13:35, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to me that Kitson 1907 p. 491 is the source of the claim that both quotes are "from the same paper", and it has been reprinted ever since without checking the original sources. FordPrefect42 (talk) 13:57, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, that explanation is sensible. One possible sequence of events was:
  • The news of Cook's death arrived in London in a letter sent from Siberia
  • London Gazette prints fist, brief obit restating content of the letter
  • A few days later, Norfolk Chronicle prints a longer obit that includes the London Gazette obit, but adds some eulogy words (from unknown author) ... this eulogy is the quote I'm interested in.
  • Later biographers conflate the two obits, and Hough ends up erroneously citing the London Gazette for the eulogy.
