Titles of jazz articles

Looking to resolve "citation lacking title" errors for the Wikiproject Jazz Cleanup Listing.

  • 1) Title of article from journal Tylko Rock, October 1992, p.17, by Wiesław Weiss for Apostrophe (')
  • 2) Title of article from journal Jazz Education Journal or Jazz Educator's Journal, vol 39, page xxxii, 2007, published by International Association for Jazz Education for Berkeley Jazz Festival
  • 3) Title of article from journal Jazz Education Journal, or Jazz Educator's Journal, vol 39, number 1–3, 98, 105, 2006, published by International Association for Jazz Education for California Jazz Conservatory
  • 4) Title of article from magazine Mojo, January 2010, by Andrew Male, for Sinatra–Basie: An Historic Musical First

Thanks, Vmavanti (talk) 16:53, 5 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

References to Jazz Education Journal failed verification. They have been removed from the respective articles and struck above. In the case of Berkeley Jazz Festival, there was nothing relevant in any of the six issues of volume 39. Jazzschool is mentioned in issues 1 and 3 of volume 39, but only in a directory listing of International Association for Jazz Education associate members, which doesn't support any of the content where cited. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:42, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Pajz:, just wondering if you had any luck with this, or any update? ♠PMC♠ (talk) 21:00, 20 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Premeditated Chaos, when I say "doing", it typically means I have placed a hold on the volume (rarely: ordered a volume/copies via ILL). Depending on where the book is stored, it may take a few days for the library to provide it. Also, while I am frequently there, neither am I there every day nor do I always have the time to scan material for other people (particularly if, like this week, I have already made 180 scans to fill other requests on this page). Which is all to say that four working days generally strikes me as a bit early to ask for updates ...   Sent — Pajz (talk) 05:26, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Pajz, I have received the scan and very much appreciate you sending it over; I'm certain the many people you have provided scans to feel the same way. Your real-life efforts make it possible for those of us requesting these sources to improve the encyclopedia in a way that we couldn't do without you and others like you. I'm sorry if my request for an update seemed hasty to you. Please understand that I didn't have any knowledge of your schedule or plans, only the word "doing". In my opinion it isn't unreasonable to have asked simply for for more information, after a couple of days. Again, I didn't intend any offense or pressure and I am grateful for your assistance. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 05:48, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Premeditated Chaos, all good, it's just that in my mind "doing" means something in the range of six or seven business days (often considerably less, sometimes perhaps slightly more), that's all I'm saying. But of course others can't necessarily tell that from just looking at the {doing} template, I get that. :) Just wanted to clarify. Best, — Pajz (talk) 05:57, 22 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

{{Resolved}} This was previously requested in 2015, to no avail, but we have several new contributors since then, so I'm going to try again. I'm looking for a copy of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission 1976 report from its Advisory Committee on Commodity Futures Trading Professionals, also known as the Martin Committee. This was reprinted in full in CCH Commodity Futures Law Reports, Special Edition No. 29, Part II (Aug. 20, 1976). I would be happy with either the original report or the CCH reprint. The report's summary was printed in CCH Commodity Futures Law Reports ¶ 20,197 (Aug. 20, 1976); I already have the summary and am not looking for that.

Kevin, yes, that's it. I'm sure it's actually in many more libraries, since CCH Commodity Futures Law Reports is widely held, and most libraries wouldn't treat this as a separate holding. Unfortunately, when CCH computerized their holdings, they don't seem to have included this document, and only law libraries and a few other large libraries would still have the Reports in hardcopy.

Serial Number 54129, well, the point of an index is generally not to give you the page number of every occurrence of a given word, but to give you the page numbers of where a given concept is discussed. Which will typically contain pages where the word does not occur, and will omit pages where the term is just mentioned in passing but not discussed. That is why I, personally, consider "Please check the index for ..., and if it's not too much, could you provide the pages listed under that keyword" a sensible request, but not "I need all pages concerned with the word ...". Also, I generally find requests for only the pages that mention a particular term a bit confusing. If page 5 ends with "The Namasudra is", I suppose the requesting user won't be happy with page 5 only. From the point of view of the person trying to fill the request, this means that either you have to read the page or send a copy of, say, pages 3-7 (I usually go with the latter as the former is even more time-consuming). However, that turns a request for 26 pages into a way more comprehensive task. And that is in addition to the issue that you won't, even with the index, be able to identify all the requested pages in the first place. So if my understanding of the request is correct, I can only reiterate that I find it enormously difficult to process, and I believe it is sensible that the requesting user has apparently chosen to check the volume by themselves. — Pajz (talk) 20:22, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Pajz, thanks for your needlessly patronizing remarks.Pg 57, 93 and 94 for a start. ∯WBGconverse 09:01, 19 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
They are not "needlessly" patronizing. Your Google Books link says there are 29 pages that contain the term. Google shows me excerpts from three of them. So if you ask for "all pages", where exactly would one find the other 26 page numbers? — Pajz (talk) 09:08, 19 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
