{{ resolved}} I think this is available on newspapers.com, the Orlando Sentinel for November 24, 1978 and an interview with Carol Channing entitled "'Oh, oh, oh, fellas; look at the old girl now, fellas". I want to check the accuracy of this statement "She recalls that playwright Thornton Wilder loved the play so much that he came once a week, and later wrote The Matchmaker, a play based on it." in the article on Channing. The Matchmaker is earlier than Hello Dolly! not the other way round as this statement suggests so I want to see if it's the interview is Channing gets her memories wrong or our interpretation.

I'm currently improving an article, and it's looking like this book may have some more support for a particular etymology of the word "Redskin". There's a brief excerpt that claims the relevant chapter is Chapter Four: Bloody Footprints. I've found the Intro and Chapter 8 online, [15] but no Chapter 4.
Access to the whole book would be perfect, in case the etymology is discussed in other chapters as well. However, I've read the rubric at the top of this page, so I know that's massively unlikely. Would it be possible to get access to Chapter 4?

Because in India, no name is spelled the same way. Here is the wikipedia article on him: /info/en/?search=Neelakantha_Chaturdhara. Here is the analysis/compilation he is known for: https://books.google.com/books/about/Bh%C4%81ratabh%C4%81vad%C4%ABpa.html?id=52trGwAACAAJ where he traveled India and compiled all the different versions of the Mahabharat into a single version, adding his own flourishes and analysis around the way. The Ganguli translation of the Mahabharat is heavily influenced by this analysis according to the introduction of the translation itself ( http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/m01/m01001.htm). Pinkfloyd11 ( talk) 23:35, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
@ Pinkfloyd11 First of all I have no idea who you are accusing . You added fake contents and fake references but when I pointed out you blame me? That's why I asked WP:RS and Teahouse. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Resource Exchange/Resource Request guys can't find "anything" about your reference. They are saying and I quote "Further, every mention of it on Wikipedia appears to have been added by Pinkfloyd11. I would treat this as sneaky vandalism and remove on sight until a reference is provided".
They said it's vandalism and should be removed on sight. I saw your edits on Neelakantha_Chaturdhara. You removed most of the criticism about Neelakantha Chaturdhara . Second there is no resource or reference material about Neelakantha Chaturdhara edition of Mahabharat. Then how can you add quoting "Neelakantha Chaturdhara or Chatahurdi compilation of the Mahabharat". If there is any such resource then WP:RS would have it. But they don't.
You added everywhere "Chatahurdi compilation of the Mahabharat" not Neelakantha Chaturdhara edition of Mahabharat . Both are different for a layman.Even if there is any resources as you say how can we know it as reliable and can be used in Wikipedia. Vijays1127 03:56, 6 June 2017 (UTC)

Is there any chance someone has access to this review article? Cosmetics for acne: indications and recommendations for an evidence-based approach. PMID 25315288 If so, it would be a great help to me if you could send me a copy. This one too if anyone has access ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25876146). Please let me know when you have a chance. Thank you! TylerDurden8823 ( talk) 07:25, 26 March 2017 (UTC)

{{ resolved}} I think this is available on newspapers.com, the Orlando Sentinel for November 24, 1978 and an interview with Carol Channing entitled "'Oh, oh, oh, fellas; look at the old girl now, fellas". I want to check the accuracy of this statement "She recalls that playwright Thornton Wilder loved the play so much that he came once a week, and later wrote The Matchmaker, a play based on it." in the article on Channing. The Matchmaker is earlier than Hello Dolly! not the other way round as this statement suggests so I want to see if it's the interview is Channing gets her memories wrong or our interpretation.

For the Lotus Sutra article I need the "Lotus Sutra" entry in: Jonathan Silk, Oskar von Hinüber, Vincent Eltschinger (eds.) (2015). Brill's Encyclopedia of Buddhism, Volume 1: Literature and Languages. Leiden: Brill. ISBN 9789004283435, OCLC 929537607 . Unfortunately I can not specify the page numbers but [9] shows that a "Lotus Sutra" entry exists. The source would be very helpful in evaluating due weight.

The only pre-Revolutionary, English-language newspapers in Teheran I've found on Worldcat are The Teheran Journal and Kaysan International (which may have been a magazine). It's entirely possible that there were others, and one may have been called The Tehran Times, or the school may be translating the title and quote from a paper in Persian or another language.

I'm currently improving an article, and it's looking like this book may have some more support for a particular etymology of the word "Redskin". There's a brief excerpt that claims the relevant chapter is Chapter Four: Bloody Footprints. I've found the Intro and Chapter 8 online, [15] but no Chapter 4.
Access to the whole book would be perfect, in case the etymology is discussed in other chapters as well. However, I've read the rubric at the top of this page, so I know that's massively unlikely. Would it be possible to get access to Chapter 4?

I recently came across several Wikipedia articles containing this particular sentence "Chatahurdi compilation of the Mahabharat".

Because in India, no name is spelled the same way. Here is the wikipedia article on him: /info/en/?search=Neelakantha_Chaturdhara. Here is the analysis/compilation he is known for: https://books.google.com/books/about/Bh%C4%81ratabh%C4%81vad%C4%ABpa.html?id=52trGwAACAAJ where he traveled India and compiled all the different versions of the Mahabharat into a single version, adding his own flourishes and analysis around the way. The Ganguli translation of the Mahabharat is heavily influenced by this analysis according to the introduction of the translation itself ( http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/m01/m01001.htm). Pinkfloyd11 ( talk) 23:35, 5 June 2017 (UTC)
@ Pinkfloyd11 First of all I have no idea who you are accusing . You added fake contents and fake references but when I pointed out you blame me? That's why I asked WP:RS and Teahouse. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Resource Exchange/Resource Request guys can't find "anything" about your reference. They are saying and I quote "Further, every mention of it on Wikipedia appears to have been added by Pinkfloyd11. I would treat this as sneaky vandalism and remove on sight until a reference is provided".
They said it's vandalism and should be removed on sight. I saw your edits on Neelakantha_Chaturdhara. You removed most of the criticism about Neelakantha Chaturdhara . Second there is no resource or reference material about Neelakantha Chaturdhara edition of Mahabharat. Then how can you add quoting "Neelakantha Chaturdhara or Chatahurdi compilation of the Mahabharat". If there is any such resource then WP:RS would have it. But they don't.
You added everywhere "Chatahurdi compilation of the Mahabharat" not Neelakantha Chaturdhara edition of Mahabharat . Both are different for a layman.Even if there is any resources as you say how can we know it as reliable and can be used in Wikipedia. Vijays1127 03:56, 6 June 2017 (UTC)
