- How did you tell which collection it was under? Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 15:52, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Darkwarriorblake: That's not an easy question to answer. It's often a good idea to start with the general-purpose collections like ProQuest and EBSCO which cover a wide range of topics and sources. Other collections, like Oxford Bibliographies Online, are more specialized and only need be used if they focus on topics you're after. You can find out what each collection covers by clicking on their information links. But with experience you'll get to know which ones to use. —Bruce1eetalk 16:46, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

- Darkwarriorblake, do you have any more information about #6, such as page numbers? Is the article title actually the same as the magazine title? --Usernameunique (talk) 16:45, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
- Usernameunique just that it is issue 27. As I understand it, it's pretty much the bulk of the issue, but I can't tell how much or page numbers as the only way to purchase it is through the apple store and I don't have any iProducts. I have been able to acquire a few Cinefex issues but the physical copy for that one is running £20. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 17:37, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
- Darkwarriorblake, what precisely are you looking for? Is it an article, entitled "Cinefex," within the journal Cinefex? You list the author as Don Shay, yet he is also the publisher; is this some sort of "letter from the editor" starting off the issue? Or is Cinefex different from most journals (which are broken down into a number of articles), and each issue is essentially a single article? By the way, it looks like it would be available for $4.99 on iPad, though I'm not sure how to get around the iProducts issue. —Usernameunique (talk) 22:50, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
- Usernameunique I am very, very sorry for the delay, I did not get pinged or did not notice it. Each Cinefex issue tends to read like most sci-fi mags of its time, it'll have articles about different films and topics, but the Aliens issue is apparently a whole issue dedicated to the film and the article is written by Don Shay. Without getting my hands on it I can't really provide more clarity than that unfortunately. Darkwarriorblake / SEXY ACTION TALK PAGE! 10:33, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- No problem, Darkwarriorblake. I've been able to get the cover and ToC for Cinefex 27, which indicates that there's an article entitled "Aliens" beginning on page 4, with author Don Shay. The ToC doesn't list anything else, so it's likely, as you said, a dedicated issue. I've updated the citation above. If you want to cover and ToC, email me and I'll send it over. I also may be able to get the article itself, and will follow up on that when I hear more. --Usernameunique (talk) 21:32, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
- Darkwarriorblake, unfortunately my library won't scan it due to copyright—presumably because the article takes up nearly the entirety of the issue, making a fair-use argument more difficult. You might try reaching out to Cinefex directly (see emails addresses and "Contact Us" link at bottom right); given the intended use, they might be willing to send you a copy (that doesn't require an Apple device) as a courtesy. --Usernameunique (talk) 19:47, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Darkwarriorblake, out of the blue today, my library emailed me with part of the article—pages 4 through 23. Email me for it.

I tried an SF Chronicle archive search (despite me not having direct access anyways even if I found it), but I couldn't find it for that date. But that's what comes up as existing from a ProQuest search. They just don't have anything more than a snippet on ProQuest. The ProQuest document ID is 303076104.

Hi,
Would it be possible for anyone to please e-mail me a copy of this recent Washington Post article about the Donbass?:
I cannot access it on the Wayback Machine (not yet, at least) and I'm wondering if it could contain any useful information that I could add to articles about the Donbass and/or the Donbass War.
