Internet Archive Scholar vs. JSTORHello, I see on your user page that you use JSTOR and I'd like to know more about your experience. By my calculations, a good 70 % of the main JSTOR content is now available for everyone at Internet Archive Scholar, with full text search provided e.g. at https://scholar.archive.org/ . The service is still in beta, but I've used it for some source-finding and it seems quite usable to me; I wonder whether that's just my experience. If you have a chance, the next time you'd be looking for a source on Google Scholar or JSTOR or similar, to perform the same search on IA scholar instead, I'd be curious to hear how it ends up. Thanks, Nemo 19:07, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
Lucia Chamberlain editsI can see that the dates should be in the US format, but I don't see why you have changed the parameter name "work" to its alias "newspaper" in the instances of {{cite news}}. What justification is there for those changes? Thanks. PamD 06:30, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
Great Snowstorm (of 1944)Hello! I appreciate the massive amount of time you must have spent trying to make improvements to this article (that I entirely researched and wrote). I guess the links to newspapers.com enable all people to read the article without having to have a subscription, which is good. I just have one concern - the several links that I checked only seem to have a link to the first page of the article, unless I just don't know how to access the second page. Most articles indeed have a second page somewhere further back in the paper and often a lot of the info in the wikipedia article may be from there, not the first page. Also, I had listed the newspaper as the author because that way people can very easily see which newspapers are sourced at the start of the reference as some people give precedence to certain papers. Lastly, the reason I had the refrerence numbers out of order is because sometimes the info in the first part of the sentence was from a higher numbered reference but I wanted to imply it matched with the first part of the sentence. I preferred to have academic-length sentences for the most part as opposed to short ones with only once piece of info and just one reference. I'd appreciate hearing back about the second page of an article issue. On the others, I guess the way you have ordered things is the way it will stay as I am not a huge detail person like you are.Eastern Cougar (talk) 01:35, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
If you are bored, feel free to go over to the second article I wrote and do your newspaper clipping thing. Someone else rewrote the citations in the same style as you but did not did cut out the clippings like you had done. Its just too much work/detail for me to get into. The article is 1971 Great Lakes Blizzard.Eastern Cougar (talk) 23:31, 25 May 2022 (UTC) A barnstar for you!
Hello Nick Number, coming across this edit, just wanted to inform you there is a Category:Charles Butler (NYU) now on commons, in case you might wish to alter the image. Cheers.

Long time!! I am travelling in South America. This morning, on day 6 of my trip, I tested positive. I may be locked in a hotel room for a few days. Last night I was at a show where "Cielito Lindo" was played. I did not know the name of the song, but I figured the Ay yi yi yi song might get me somewhere. I ended up at "Limerick (song)". I am quite sure I have gone too far in hatnoting a remedy. I think maybe some other redirects should exist related to this issue though.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 12:16, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

I've known Heilman's piano trio for years, now - it's one of the finest pieces of American chamber music I know. It frustrates me no end how little information there is about him out there - at least I can now put a face to the name. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 05:04, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

--Lajmmoore (talk) 11:01, 18 July 2023 (UTC) via MassMessaging help?Since you seem to understand the technical side of WP, far, far better than I do, can you help me with a link from Ebsco host? Please understand I am probably incapable of explaining this sufficiently, but I will try. If you go to the WP library and look up "A Nursing Legend: Admiral Josephine T. Waconda, BSN, CFNP Assistant Surgeon General February 1935-January 2013" in the search bar at the top, the first result is to the article I need "A Nursing Legend" by Fran A'Hern Smith. However, the link https://wikipedialibrary.idm.oclc.org/login?auth=production&url=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=ccm&AN=86176810&site=eds-live&scope=site has a proxy address and I cannot figure out a work around. The accession number, 86176810, if put into the template {{Ebsco}}, takes you to this page, showing it isn't found. How the heck do I use a link in a citation in my draft to get to the article?

Thank you!This is just a note of appreciation for the tips -- and especially the javascript bookmark -- that you posted on March 7, 2023, in Wikipedia talk:Newspapers.com#issue converting clipping to citation. After my subscription to Newspapers.com expired in December 2023, I found a link to that section that I had saved in my files, created the bookmark, and followed the steps you listed. I was amazed at how smooth that made the transition from having my own subscription to using the Wikipedia Library for access and creating clippings. Now I use your bookmark daily on my desktop computer, laptop computer, or both. Thanks for your simplification of what otherwise would have been a tedious process!

SolangeWell, it's been a little while since you posted Talk:Solange § Primary topic?, but FWIW, I strongly agree.

The PremHi Nick. The reason why I added the statement that Prem means Premier League is because in the main disambiguation page, nowhere does it refer to the Premier League. This is an important thing to note, especially when used in the phrase "The Prem" or "Prem Table". Can you please revise my addition? --MULLIGANACEOUS-- (talk) 00:58, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Chicago Meetup for Wikidata DayHello! This is User:Luiysia (IRL name is Kelly). My main interests are fashion, music, literature, and history. I am fairly new to Wikipedia editing and I found that there has been very little activity from the Chicago Wikipedia user group since 2020. I'd like to host a casual meetup in Chicago to celebrate Wikidata Day on Saturday, October 26. Proposed location is Engine Coffee in the Wicker Park/West Town area, at 11AM. Here is the official meetup page, where you can add yourself as an attendee. (If you would prefer not to see messages like this, go ahead and take yourself off this list.) Hope to see you all there!

I noticed that you had edited the page in the past because it was without a link to an article, and now that it has been published, I am working to get the Wiki page changed over to host the topic about the method used, and the new information used. If interested in making the edits, and adding the information correctly, I am willing to discuss the methods used, and to help arrange for some worksheets to be made to add to the forum so that the link to the article is used as a reference, and the research can be displayed. A lot of work has gone into it, and I am still very new as to the use of Wiki, so I am asking for your assistance if you are willing. You can contact me on my FB page at /SolvingBealePapers, or via email at blueexplorer76 at warm message service dot com .

It would have taken me an age to do it even with help. I have just been looking again at the BBC 100 women and see there is another South American activist mentioned who, again, has a page in the Spanish Wikipedia. Her name is Johana Bahamón. I am only just wondering if you fancy doing a translation of that one too? Of course you may well be busy on other matters and I hope you do not find it impertinent of me to ask. But let me know if you are too busy and I will have a slow go myself. Balance person (talk) 18:53, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
Peruvian Women Scientist CampaignHi, Nick Number! Thank you so much for responding to my post in the Women in Red discussion and for offering your help. I would like to provide you with more details about the virtual sessions we have scheduled. These will be held on February 20 and 27, from 10 am. to 1 pm (UTC - 5) via zoom. We will have 50 participants editing in Spanish and I will be in charge of that workshop and 50 participants editing in English. We could set up a parallel session for each language, if you have availability on that date and time. Another option would be to schedule a single additional session at the date and time that best suits you. What do you think? If this is something that might interest you, would you agree to have a virtual meeting beforehand to discuss all the details? I am very grateful for your response.
