N.W. Dible - Kansas City Star

[edit]
Resolved

Per another editor's suggestion the following section is cut/pasted from Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Humanities#N.W._Dible_-_Kansas_City_Star. I have also included the comments of yet another editor who seems to feel (possibly s\he is right?) this may be a bit of a goose chase. Any expertise on sourcing this subject would be appreciated.

Does anyone have an account to review the Kansas City Star archives? I am looking for any information on Napoleon William Dible and/or his construction firm, N.W. Dible Company which I believe is now called Hickok-Dible. I had a link to an article at the KCS but my link was deleted when the original stub & talk pages were CSD'd with an "A7" code just as I was starting to resume work on it. I also have found the following items so far:

UPDATE: I have been able to identify that this article was published as "THE TUDOR REVIVAL: Old English design found a champion in Kansas City" on pages 10 & 12 of the 31 December 2004 issue of the Kansas City Star. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Formerly6697 (talkcontribs) 10:07, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

THE ABOVE IS WHAT I NEED FROM THE KCS ARCHIVES plus anything else helpful would be appreciated.

Good news: The Wikipedia:WikiProject Resource Exchange/Resource Request page exists exactly for this sort of question and the folks over there are amazing. They have access to all kinds of paywall-protected databases. You can simply copy-paste this question there and they are usually quite prompt to respond.

The "Historic Westheight" and "What's a Dible Tudor?" blog articles are simply abridged versions of the Rockhill Gardens page. The "offline biography" is literally the 1 1/2-page PDF the link goes to, not an actual book; the KC library system maintains a collection of local biography PDFs on their website. I submitted the deletion request, because Dible simply doesn't meet notability guidelines. He owned a home construction company that built the styles of houses that were popular in the US at the time. In 2004, he was posthumously mentioned in the D section of the local paper in relation to his company (which is also non-notable). In 1985, a local neighborhood newsletter wrote an article about him (your other "offline resource"). In 1906, he patented a quack device for regrowing hair. He's not well-known in KC, though I admit my evidence for proving that negative claim is anecdotal: I live there (about 20 blocks away from the Rockhill Gardens area that reprinted the Star article) and I've never heard of him nor the phrase "Dible-built", which sounds far more like advertising than an actual phrase someone would use in conversation. 69.23.116.182 (talk) 04:05, 31 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Echo reduplication in Kannada and the theory of word-formation

[edit]
Resolved

Hi, I am doing a bit of research about shm-reduplication, and I found in Andrew Nevins and Bert Vaux's article[2] a citation of Echo reduplication in Kannada and the theory of word-formation by Jeffrey Lidz[3], which compares Kannada gi-reduplication with shm-reduplication:


As Lidz (2001) discusses, echo reduplication can apply at various points within a syntactic structure. For example, Kannada gi-reduplication can occur either inside or outside of the case-marker on a noun. Thus, the input [baagil] `door’ can be merged with ECHO and then [[baagil] ECHO] can be merged with the K(ase) morpheme -annu (38a), or [baagil] can be merged with K and then [[baagil] K] can be merged with ECHO (38b). (38) a. baagil-giigil-annu ‘doors-shmoors-acc.’ b. baagil-annu giigil-annu ‘doors-acc-shmoors-acc’


but I am not sure whether Kannada gi-reduplication is derogatory like shm-reduplication. Maybe Lidz's article have the answer. Can any have access to that article help me?--chaoxiandelunzi (talk) 11:19, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

chaoxiandelunzi - A Lidz article with a similar title Lidz (2001) and the Lidz (2006) article you linked to can be accessed at Jeffrey Lidz (1999), "Echo Reduplication in Kannada: Implications for a Theory of Word-formation" (PDF), University of Pennsylvania Working Papers in Linguistics, vol. 6.3, retrieved January 3, 2014. -- Jreferee (talk) 17:02, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It seemed that Kannada gi-reduplication usually mean"something like that". Thanks.--chaoxiandelunzi (talk) 02:01, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Echo reduplication is pretty common in all South Asian languages including Kannada. On their semantic function in these languages, Francis Xavier Emmanuel says thus:[4]

As a pair, the most obvious semantic function is to ‘spread’ or widen the semantic or lexical field of the original word so as to include all the other words of closely similar meaning in the context of the conversation i.e. ” X and other similar things/activities/qualities”.

... [T]he base word-echo word pair conveys a sense of increased ‘indefiniteness’, ‘generalisation’ or ‘de-centering’ of the meaning associated with the base word alone. ...

[E]cho words may serve important social purposes: to create a casual, non-threatening and relaxed tone to facilitate informal dialogue or negotiation.

Although not derogatory, these are generally avoided in formal conversations. There are many examples in the Xavier's post referred above, largely for Tamil, although I'd imagine that every one of them would have a Kannada parallel. I learned about these during a discussion in Tamil Wikipedia on Ideophones and expanded on it in my Quora answer on this topic, but it's a shame that I haven't added this information to the English Wiki article yet. -- Sundar \talk \contribs 08:03, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Are you looking to confirm that the above five sources exist or to confirm the information in the Avicenna article that is sourced to the references? -- Jreferee (talk) 17:18, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I've been off sick for a while, apologies for delay in replying. In answer to the first question, I know the sources exist, the question is whether they actually support the statements made e.g. about Avicenna observing the transit of Venus, that Venus is closer to the Sun than the Earth, etc. etc. The material was added by User:Jagged_85, an editor notorious for misrepresenting sources, generally to make muslim and Eastern achievements sound more impressive. If I can't verify the sources I will delete the material. --Merlinme (talk) 09:15, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I'm afraid the provided sources were not terribly helpful. Both the Sabra and the Saliba on Sabra are protected by paywalls. The Open Library link is to the Biographical dictionary of scientists, David Abbott, not the Biographical Encyclopedia of Astronomers, Hockey. The latter does not have an e-readable version on Open Library.
Are there any versions available for any of the articles which I can use to verify the claims? If not I will delete the section from Wikipedia. --Merlinme (talk) 09:44, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Merlinme:, here is the article from Isis. If you are still working on this issue I'll see if I can find the others. Gamaliel (talk) 19:18, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That was helpful, I was able to use the Isis article to remove one incorrect claim and clarify another claim. The main claims I'm now looking to verify are: "In astronomy, he criticized Aristotle's view of the stars receiving their light from the Sun. Ibn Sīnā stated that the stars are self-luminous, and believed that the planets are also self-luminous", which are sourced to: Ariew, Roger (March 1987). "The phases of venus before 1610".

Actually the Sabra would also be helpful; it's used to support the sentences: "he wrote the Compendium of the Almagest, a commentary on Ptolemy's Almagest. In 1070, Abu Ubayd al-Juzjani, a pupil of Ibn Sīnā, claimed that his teacher Ibn Sīnā had solved the equant problem in the Ptolemaic model." I believe that should be Summary of the Almagest, and I'm also curious about the equant statement. --Merlinme (talk) 11:30, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Gamaliel: Thank you so much, that's absolutely brilliant. I've been able to tidy up and clarify the relevant section. It's not Jagged_85's worst work, but for example all of the sources use Summary rather than Compendium of the Almagest; it's a "Summary" because most of it was a rehash of Ptolemy's earlier work, which renaming to "Compendium" makes much less obvious. Thanks again. --Merlinme (talk) 13:42, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

kay Robertson's birthdate/marriage date

[edit]
Resolved
 – Inappropriate request

Can anyone access birth records or marriage records of Kay Robertson from duck dynasty? There seems to be contradicting sources of her age and marriage dates in online sources... some say she was born 1950.. others have said she was 65 as of last year..meaning she would've been born in 1946.. given that a year of 1950 would make her husband nearly four years her elder when they meet (while she was 14) .. if a birth date of 1950 is inaccurate .. the article could be potentially cited as a source to make a potentially libelous claim that Phil committed statutory rape before he and his wife were married... considering her son is cited as being born in 1965.. if Kay was born in 1950 she would've been 14 at conception..Nickmxp (talk) 01:59, 14 January 2014 (UTC) Brief citation of the requested materials.

Nickmxp - I don't have the birth date. Ages_of_consent_in_North_America#Louisiana likely was different back then, but the Wikipedia article notes that felony carnal knowledge in Louisiana requires that a difference between the age of the victim and the age of the offender be four years or greater. Post at WP:BLPN if the Duck Dynasty article is being used to convey/imply improper claims. -- Jreferee (talk) 23:40, 19 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Jreferee thank you for your input... I'm still new to this and the way the article reads makes the situation odd.. I was able to update Kay's birthday on the duck dynasty page because the source used was Phil's book.. which after a good read I found no statement in the book listing her birth year as 1950... to the contrary his book stated he was one year older.. the Phil Robertson page doesn't state the age difference but states they started dating when Kay was 14 and married when she was sixteen... which is consistent with statements they've made.. but it still lists her birthday as 1950, with a source from a news article.. although that age contradicts many statements made by the Robertson's... and in the spirit of verification of information.. I thought it prudent to have verifiable proof of age before challenging another editors source.. if she does happen to be four years younger then I see no problem with listing her correct birthday as it would be a fact.. but if she is not.. and there is a great deal of evidence she is not then I think it would be prudent to correct..

Is there anyway I can get periodic access to articles from Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences (behind the NRC Research Press paywall)? I hear it is free for Canadian citizens, but I am somewhat latitudinally challenged. In writing various geology articles (such as Siletzia and Leech River Fault) sometimes I can't get to key sources, which makes it hard to write a balanced article. Could NRC be persuaded to support a Really Good Cause? Or could someone grab articles for me on recurring basis? -- J. Johnson (JJ) (talk) 22:41, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Lo Nuestro Awards missing nominations

Currently, me and Jaespinoza are looking for nominations for the Past Lo Nuestro Awards as he's getting the category lists to FL. We've managed to get most of them, but we are missing the nominations for the years 1989, 1990, 1992, 1994, 1995, and 2000. For 1989, I could only find the nominations for the Pop Artists field on Google Books and for 2000, I could only find a partial list on both the web, books, and Google newspaper. I've searched everywhere online on Google (including Books and Newspaper), but with no luck.

I couldn't find a complete list for those years in a Newsbank search, but that doesn't mean they aren't in a Newsbank article or in some other database somewhere.

It was a planned American Expeditionary Force squadron from 4 March 1918 to May 1919. It trained as an Observation Squadron in England, but never entered combat. It was demobilized in May 1919.

  • Bulletin mensuel de la société linnéenne de Paris, sér. 2, 1: 35 (1898).

I'm working to expand shortened botanical references for List of Apocynaceae genera and this one is steadfastly resisting all my tricks, probably because the name Bousigonia Pierre is published in an article whose author is someone else (not a rare occurrence in botany). This seems confirmed in that no article including this page is listed in his posthumous bibliography.

I'm only looking for the full bibliographical reference (I'm missing author, title and page range). Note that "series 2" is likely to be "new series" or "nouvelle série". --Circéus (talk) 22:08, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Looking for this? The full series is at the BHL here. LeadSongDog come howl! 03:31, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
A) If it was that easy, I wouldn't be asking.
B) To be more exact, if there was more than one out of fifteen volumes of the new series, (the article I'm missing info about is in volume 2 of said series), I wouldn't be asking.
On the other hand, I have found second-hand information that tell me the article is most likely by L[ouis David] Planchon, but still needing confirmation and the rest of the bibliographic data.. Circéus (talk) 05:36, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
