Please note that I think the ISBN someone has given in the above citation may be wrong. I'm not at all convinced p 728 covers all of the information that it is used to support in the article but it is the page given.

TV Guide article about Joanne Jordan (talent agent)
The source is used in Joanne Jordan (talent agent) to verify this content:
In a 2008 article, TV Guide referred to Jordan as the "force behind" the "I'm F-ing Ben Affleck" video, and in the same article Jimmy Kimmel quipped, "I wish I'd had her in high school when I was looking for a date to the prom."
For Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Central Talent Booking, I merged this material from Central Talent Booking to Joanne Jordan (talent agent) using this version of the Central Talent Booking article but would like to confirm whether this offline source is accurate and to see if there is more biographical information that could be used.

While it is of course a possibility, for many journals from that time and provenance that Commons copy would be a perfectly accurate representation of how their pictures looked in print ... — Pajz (talk) 07:29, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

- @LouisAragon: I assume you've tried looking for the articles here and didn't find them? RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 02:51, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
- (1) Is the URL supposed to imply that it is available electronically? If so, I don't find any indication that it is. (And it would surprise me a bit if it were. Brill has a reference collection that is continuously updated, but that title doesn't seem to be part of it; the older entries are available on iranicaonline.org anyway. And it has an e-book collection, but I've never seen them - or, in fact, other publishers of similar works - offer individual fascicles before the volume is completed.) (2) The pages that you request are the entire fascicle (entries "Khavaran-Nama" through "Khomeini"). Therefore, fulfilling the request is difficult on legal grounds. As far as I'm concerned, I cannot copy the fascicle in its entirety, but if you can narrow down the request to a few specific entries (list of entries) and/or a smaller page range - say, half of it or less -, that is something I would likely be able to supply. Obviously you can also wait and see if someone else can help you obtain the entire document. — Pajz (talk) 18:18, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
- @RandomCanadian: Yep I did. Iranica Online hasn't updated their online database for a very long time. @Pajz: That'd be great. I'd like:

Unfortunately, despite a catalogue entry suggesting the contrary, both of them are yet to receive fascicle 5.

For Hong Kong Japanese School - I want to find the Chinese name of the "Ling Ying Building" (where the Japanese school was first located) but Google Books will not allow me to view page 194, which I believe should have the Chinese characters for that.
Thanks, WhisperToMe (talk) 16:34, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
- @WhisperToMe: it might refer to zh:嶺英中學. Searching Ling Ying in https://mmis.hkpl.gov.hk/web/guest/old-hk-collection led to me an article LING YING SCHOOL ANNIVERSARY on Hong Kong Daily Press, 1939-06-02, which said the school had premises in the Lee Gardens (利園), which is exactly Lee family's properties. The zhwiki article says the school was closed in 1970. I guess its premises were used for the Japanese school then.

- @Roy17: I'm not in the HK region right now, but I'm checking online sources. zh:香港日本人學校 already states "1971年(昭和46年)4月12日 - 學生人數増加,要借附近的嶺英校舍,一部(幼稚園部、小學1、2年)到該處上課。同年5月10日,設立香港日本人學校新校舍建設準備委員會。" so that seems to be the right track. WhisperToMe (talk) 17:39, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

I found the resource/book on Google Books, but...
{{resolved}}
This is the book:
Sefer Dinaburg: Qoveṣ divre iyyun u-meḥqar muggaš le-Ben-Ṣiyyon Dinaburg ... OCLC 163033281
BUT...
Google Books does not really have any content for this book, i.e. "No Preview available" and not any "Content Search" for it either.
This means, as far as I understand, that Google Books may have the contents scanned sometime in future, but there is no way of knowing when. Could be a number of years.
My local Library's InterLibrary Loan is cancelled also for the time being because of COVID-19. Nobody knows when it may come back...
Does this mean, than until InterLibrary Loan comes back sometime in the future, or until Google Books starts scanning this book somehow sometime in the distant future also, I am out of luck for it?
Would the electronic wizards here know of a different way maybe that I could possibly get an electronic scan of the article that is on pages 215-236 of this book? (The author of the article in these pages is - Aescoly, Aaron Zeev). Thank you so much for any advice! warshy (¥¥) 21:01, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
[Forgot to state: This is for articles Petrus Serrarius, Abraham Pereyra, Spinoza. Thanks.]
- I have added the book title and OCLC. --Gazal world (talk) 21:10, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
- Other relevant OCLCs are OCLC 1014682719 and OCLC 645197354 Umimmak (talk) 21:24, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
- warshy, all I could do is open the book, scan the chapter, and send you a copy. Is this what you want? Something may have gone lost in translation here but your repeated use of "electronic" is giving me some pause. I do not have electronic access to the work. — Pajz (talk) 17:36, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Pajz Thank you very much! That's exactly what I need! If you can send me (how?) the article by Aescoly on pages 215-236 I would be so grateful! Please. Thank you so much again! warshy (¥¥) 17:56, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- warshy, via email. I'll keep you posted. Doing... (probably tomorrow or on Friday), — Pajz (talk) 18:56, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- Pajz, WOW! I couldn't have imagined/dreamt, before I asked, that someone here would somehow have access to the paper/material book itself. I mean, if through Google and WorldCat (and HathiTrust?) a remote user such as myself cannot look at the content of the book, I'd assume you must be yourself somehow inside a big University library somewhere, since I am also assuming this is a rather rare foreign item that someone would not commonly hold in their own private library... Sorry for so many (wrong) assumptions. This is only my second try at this AMAZING resource exchange. I'll know a little better next time. Thanks a lot for all your help with this request! warshy (¥¥) 19:16, 5 August 2020 (UTC)

- warshy, sent. I hope it's the right one, I'm sadly unfamiliar with Hebrew, so I couldn't really verify it. If not, please let me know. — Pajz (talk) 12:07, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
- Pajz, I've got your email and I downloaded the file with all the right pages I needed scanned. Thank you also for including the book edition pages and the Table of Contents for it. Incredible! Great job. Thank you so much again. I am closing this request. warshy (¥¥) 15:30, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

Hi. Can someone with access to the premium section of The Independent, please check the content of this edit and this edit? This source is behind a paywall and I cannot verify it.

All were found looking for Slater, then identifying JD. I’m on a so-so strong old iPhone and can’t seem to access these leads another editor found. Can anyone look them up and get copies? The article has been renominated at AfD but I’m convinced it will survive. Gleeanon409 (talk) 00:50, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
For J.D. Slater
Thanks, Gleeanon409 (talk) 00:50, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
- @Gleeanon409: The first one just has a line
Porno actor J.D. Slater is a favorite fantasy celebrity that Qua would like to bed down with—S/M style.
p. 159. The second one just has the lineIt breaks my heart not to be able to publish stills, but if you're familiar at all with co-stars Scorpio or J.D. Slater you'll know what I mean.
p. 28. The third has an advertisement forNew York Men. Starring Eric Ryan, J.D. Slater, Scorpio, Robert White, Lee Marlin
at The Nob Hill Cinema p. 33. The fourth one has a photograph and passing reference to J.D. Slater on three pages; the only one providing any sort of information being:Film director John Duffy, better known as porn star J. D. Slater, destroyed Robert's photographs of Slater's then lover, Frank Diaz. When Slater asked Mapplethorpe to replace the photographs, Robert insisted that J. D. sit for him. Slater refused saying, "I don't do black-and-white." Mapplethorpe pronounced Slater a philistine. He never spoke to him again, primarily because Slater refused to have sex with Robert to obtain another set of the photographs.
p. 98. The fourth book also has a photograph of Slater captionedThe famous stage and screen porn star, J.D. Slater, attracted a great deal of public notoriety. He was a friend of both Fritscher and Mapplethorpe. (Photograph by Mikal Bales).
