Your request for help
editAs far as the newspapers go, there is no requirement for them to be online (it is preferred though). But sometimes, there are old newspapers which appeared way before the internet was invented... I do it sometimes with articles on insects... Sometimes they provide only a study from 1890's and even though its not new, there is no alternate source available sometimes. You still can cite newspapers even if they are old, just provide: Page number, editor, (we call it author) title, and a publisher. Another thing to mention; Newspapers, just like magazine come with a volume and issue number, it is advised to include them as well, if available. :)--Mishae (talk) 19:17, 25 September 2013 (UTC)
