I am looking into a possible article for an obscure folkloric critter (sandbox here) and have gotten as far as finding four sources courtesy of the Russian and Polish Wikipedias. I only need screenshots of the relevant entry from each book; I can use DeepL to translate afterwards (though if a native speaker of either language does it here instead, I would be very grateful).
Notice: starting 6 February and for (hopefully only) two weeks, I will be in a location without regular internet access and working long hours, so replies during that time may be delayed. Thanks, SilverTiger12 (talk) 00:23, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
@SilverTiger12:, you could try and get in touch with Sławobóg. He's the one that is translating Russian and Slavic folklore articles into English with reliable sources. KHR FolkMyth (talk) 10:03, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
Also, @SilverTiger12:, here's a French language article that mentions the korgorushi as a domestic creature like the domovoi. Could be a starting point. KHR FolkMyth (talk) 10:08, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

Hello. I'm working on Odin (Sandbox) and can't find the text of this lecture anywhere. I know a written version was produced because several scholars have cited it in their own work. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, — ImaginesTigers (talk) 22:13, 3 May 2025 (UTC)
@Dentsinhere43 just pinging in case you didn't see the link I left above. I think it's pretty unlikely that Bill Palmer has a publication by this name. You might look at some of his listed 2010-2015 publications to see if any might be related to the project and have information you could use. Eddie891TalkWork 08:04, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

I never seem to have access to these, even through TWL. But if anyone else does, any chance of ctrl+f "ambassadeurs", for continuing work on the eponymous article? I don't think there should be that many hits, but I'm led to understand she goes into more detail in the thesis than her later published work. Many thanks in advance!

This book is available electronically from many university libraries but not commercially. Could someone with academic access get the following chapters for me: "Ethnic Germans in the early USSR", "The deportation", and "Conclusion".
As that's 2 pretty substantive chapters (~1/4 of the book's length) (conclusion is only 2 pp), I wouldn't feel comfortable sending both, as UK copyright law is pretty clear about a 1 chapter / 5% limit. But if there is one you want more than the other, I could send it. Eddie891TalkWork 07:30, 11 May 2025 (UTC)

For Draft:Dale A. Zimmerman, a draft I am writing. I believe this is his doctoral thesis, and I am hoping I can use it to find more information about his work. A PDF of the thesis can be downloaded for University of Michigan users from the DOI or Handle.

For MOS:JG. I am researching whether Wikipedia should allow Chinese calendar dates and, if not, how they should best be converted into Julian/Gregorian dates. My notes are at User:Toadspike/Lunisolar research. I specifically would like any excerpts from this book about the Calendar – in the 4th edition, which I have access to, Chapter 39 (pp. 492–532) is about the Chinese calendar; this is likely similar in the 6th edition. Most important to me are the sections about Chronologies & Calendrical Concordances (Chapter 39.13 in the 4th edition) and the section Calendrical Difficulties (Chapter 39.5 in the 4th edition); these two sections should total about three pages. Also interesting would be to read SS.8 Calendar Dates, page xix in the fourth edition, which discusses this book's own practices on date formats.
