Why this page
[edit]It's easy to list books that you own by ISBN in your own user space page, where other users can search for them, but periodicals is another matter.
Verifiable information from reliable sources, properly cited is essential to Wikipedia.
An editor working on an article may have heard of an available fact source in a discussion board, on a magazine's website, or in a news item.
The editor may want to
- verify that an attribued statement actually appears in the source, or
- get more information from the source.
Sometimes sources are not available online, but in print, and some of these sources may be out of print and unavailable as back issues and from libraries, or it may be otherwise difficult for an editor to access these sources.
For this purpose, I'm listing some wikipedia editors that own particular books and magazine issues, and can be helpful in
- confirming that a statement appears in the source
- confirming that "convenience links" correctly represent the source that they purport to contain
- becomming involved in working on articles on the article
