Newspaper account

[edit]

Hello,

I requested the newspaper account access for my research, but find I do not actually use it. I would like to return the subscription so some other editor can use it.Georgejdorner (talk) 00:39, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

HI @Georgejdorner: Thanks for offering to return your account. We've been given more free accounts and there's not a waitlist, so it's not necessary to remove your access immediately. Your subscription will expire anyway on March 19 2016. All the best, HazelAB (talk) 13:50, 3 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Newspapers.com

[edit]

Hello HazelAB. I applied for the Newspapers.com subscription on Saturday and was accepted sometime on Sunday. I then created an account and filled out the Google form, but I still do not have free access to all the newspapers. Thanks,--12george1 (talk) 19:35, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @12george1: The Newspapers.com subscription is a two-stage process. Now that you've signed up and filled out the form I will let Newspapers.com know and they will activate your account. That should happen in the next couple of days. All the best, HazelAB (talk) 13:48, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Question about quote from newspapers.com

[edit]

Hello. I have added a fairly long (3 lines) quote from an article I found on newspapers.com for J. Washington Moore. Should I trim it a bit more? I feel like all of it is significant though, and those who don't have access to newspapers.com will want to read what the article said, given that it is a contentious issue. Usually I don't add quote at all, but in this case I feel like it is necessary. What do you think? (Please ping me when you respond as I may not see your page on my watchlist.) Thank you.Zigzig20s (talk) 19:26, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Zigzig20s:, Wow, it's great to see how much Newspapers.com has to offer about J. Washington Moore! I don't see a problem with the length of the quotation, but I think it would be even better if you clipped the article, using the resource's Clipping function, and made a link to it. That way people who don't have subscriptions could see the whole newspaper article. The clipping would look like this: https://www.newspapers.com/clip/3987552/ Information about how to use the clipping functionality is at the Wikipedia Library Newspapers.com site here: Wikipedia: Newspapers.com#Citation and Open Access and at the Newspapers.com site here. All the best, HazelAB (talk) 23:10, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Will my newspapers.com username show on the clipping? It looks like it might. If so, I'd rather someone else added the clippings.Zigzig20s (talk) 00:11, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I believe the three articles with quotes could be clipped, if you want to do it. But otherwise the direct quote might be sufficient. I usually never use direct quotes, but the three topics are potentially contentious (female suffrage, stolen election ballots of black candidates, arrest of drug dealer).Zigzig20s (talk) 00:14, 8 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A note of thanks …

[edit]

… for your very efficient handling of the newspapers.com subscriptions and renewals. Many, many thanks! Regards, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:41, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Newspapers.com sign-up

[edit]

Hi HazelAB, thank you very much for the approval. A few days before I applied to you, another editor suggested that I sign up for a free membership at Newspapers.com, so I did. However, I was unable to access anything without paying more money – and that's when the other editor informed me that I should have signed up on your list. I mention all this because after receiving your approval email, I clicked on the special partnership registration link that helps you track who subscribes via your partnership, and it said that I was already a free member. I hope this doesn't mess up your records. I went ahead and did step 2, filling out the Google form. Best, Yoninah (talk) 13:52, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Newspapers.com renewals—Never got an account in the first place!

[edit]

I got an email from you on newpapers.com account renewals, but I was not aware that I actually had a newspapers.com account via Wikipedia. I applied for one, but never received any login information or password or instruction on how to get such. I had assumed something had gone wrong, or that you were over the limit on accounts. Having that account would have made several articles I was working on much easier. If possible, can you check and see if I really do have a newspapers.com account, and let me know what my user login and password are, or how to get them? Thank you. Carl Henderson (talk) 19:31, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Newspapers.com

[edit]

Hi HazelAB,

I completed the required forms for full access to Newspapers.com back in March and still haven't received full access. Can you please help? Many thanks! X4n6 (talk) 23:49, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@X4n6: You should have full access as of March 30. It may be relevant that since January Newspapers.com has added "Publisher Extra" content that is not included in our Wikipedia subscriptions. It appears in search result lists with a little plus sign next to the newspaper title. Then when you click on the result you get a message inviting you to upgrade your subscription in order to view the Publisher Extra content. Or can you not get access to anything at all on the site? HazelAB (talk) 16:15, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Many thanks for getting back to me. That's exactly it: virtually everything that came up in my searches had the plus(+) sign on them, re-directing me to the "Upgrade to a Publisher Extra Subscription to view this page" notice. So short of doing that, I suppose Newspapers.com has severely limited their utility re: us then? Oh well, still grateful for the resource - and your help. Many thanks again!

Hello HazelAB, I came across the Kent Island article while doing routine spelling edits and noticed a number of "format errors" introduced by a new editor that need to be addressed. Normally, I would simply revert the current iteration back to a clean version dated May 23, 2024, but I see that you made a few edits today. Since you have edited the article several times over the years, would you be inclined to clean up the present version and eliminate the errors, or would you be okay with a revert? Regards. Woodlot (talk) 19:44, 15 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for getting in touch,User:Woodlot. I think it's worth cleaning up the present version as there's probably some new content worth keeping. I'll work on that tomorrow. I've been meaning to do some work on this article and this will be my excuse. HazelAB (talk) 22:19, 15 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please be careful with edits like this, because in fact Lorimer is the ONLY source for John Kent and his sons having saved 150+ lives as lightstation/lighthouse keepers, so it is necessary. Fundy Isles Historian - J (talk) 16:30, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ah wait, I think I see in an earlier edit you just split the run-on sentence into two and you moved Lorimer to cover the first facts about Kent/son, and then took it off the widow - whereas I just piled the references at the end of the sentence. Thanks. Difficulty finding out much about the island's actual infrastructure as a Bowdoin station, there's Bowdoin articles about the birds seen, etc - but not much on the actual mechanics of the station unfortunately. Fundy Isles Historian - J (talk) 16:32, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

HazelAB, thanks for taking the time to clean up the article. It's in much better shape now. Woodlot (talk) 21:11, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If you don't mind, I'd love help with Robert Pagan; it had zero references and was a giant textblock - but where you showed interest in Moses Gerrish, I thought you might also be tangentially interested as I am in the half-dozen major characters in the forming of the area. I'm also debating whether to make Thomas Farrell his own article to remove some details from Deer Island (New Brunswick) Fundy Isles Historian - J (talk) 01:43, 9 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm also having difficulty figuring out how to link a bunch of the islands (I'm thinking of deleting Nub and possibly a couple others that lack much independent information beyond their larger sister-island) to their other-language articles such as Salkeld Islands which exists on ceb. but when I click "Add Languages" it just blanks out. As https://ceb.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlotte_County_(kondado_sa_Kanada) shows, most of these islands are also on ceb. and elsewhere Fundy Isles Historian - J (talk) 02:32, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I have no idea how to do this, User: Fundy Isles Historian - J. You could ask at Wikipedia:Teahouse. (There seems to be a surprising amount of interest in Charlotte County on the Cebuano WP). HazelAB (talk) 12:12, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Tip of the month:

  • When creating biographies, don't forget to use Template:DEFAULTSORT.
    Accessible from "Wiki markup" at the foot of the page being edited,
    it allows categories to be listed under the subject's family name rather than their first or given name.

Moving the needle: (statistics available via Humaniki tool)

  • 24 Mar 2025: 20.070% of biographies on EN-WP are about women (2,057,083, 412,857 women)

Not sure if you're an NBer or not, but I appreciate your help on my articles - I keep seeing your name making necessary improvements I've missed and at first I actually thought you were a bot or something you were so diligent! Thanks. Fundy Isles Historian - J (talk) 16:36, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This Petty Justice book is amazing, the sheer level of soap opera going on between Owen, Nathan Frink, Robert Pagan and others...it spans DECADES of just pissing in each other's cheerios; fantastic book. Fundy Isles Historian - J (talk) 02:35, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
