2021 reference question

With this edit to New Inside (song), you added a Billboard piece describing Tiffany's music as "astonishingly potent funk-pop" and "assured and assertive". You cited page 85 but the source PDF jumps from page 84 to a full-page advertisement to page 88. Page 85 isn't present. Do you have a hard copy of this magazine issue?

This stumped me for a second. The PDF for the whole issue is strangely missing the page, but it does appear as an individual page when using the website search tool: https://www.worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-Business/Music/Billboard-Index/IDX/1990/Billboard1990-Billboard-Page-0078.pdf

I sometimes used to find the review page using the search tool and provide a link in the Wikipedia reference to the entire issue, so probably didn't realise it had missing pages. These days I don't include World Radio History links, so I'll update the reference accordingly. Ajsmith141 (talk) 19:15, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Wild! Thanks for clearing that up. Binksternet (talk) 00:53, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
