Looking for a book

[edit]

Good evening,

I need following book as it features further information about the Mongol800 song "Chiisana Koi no Uta" as well as 29 other popular Japanese songs from the Heisei era:

  • Shiba Tomonori (2021), Heisei no hitto-kyoku 平成のヒット曲, Shinchō shinsho, 929 (in Japanese), Shinjuku: Shinchōsha, ISBN 978-4-10-610929-4

For now, I just need it for the information about the above mentioned song. Is there anyone with knowledge in Japanese who owns this book? I asked the Japan portals in Englisch, German and Japanese Wikipedia but did not get any response. --Goroth (talk) 20:07, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Goroth If you haven't, you can try WP:RX. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 20:33, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I did not not know that this exist. I just made a request there. Thank you. --Goroth (talk) 21:32, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do not use {{lang}} or {{nihongo}} in {{citation}} |title=. Also, jas refers to New Caledonian Javanese; is that what you really meant? You are looking for a book so why do you name a periodical? Apparently Shinchō shinsho, 929 is a series of which this source is the 929th number so |periodical= amd |issue= are misused. Google books says that the book length is 303 pages so |pages=303 is a misuse of that parameter; cs1|2 does not support total-number-of-pages. I fixed your example template to remove {{lang}} and |pages= and replaced , |periodical= and |issue= with |series=.
Have you looked at OCLC for this book? Perhaps one of the libraries that it lists as holders of the source is near you or perhaps an interlibrary loan can be arranged. See OCLC 1285903229.

@Trappist the monk: I have looked up OCLC (Worldcat) and the only libraries that seem to have this book are in the United States or in Japan. I am residing in Germany. --Goroth (talk) 22:11, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
