March 29[edit]

Out of print books[edit]

The website MovieHunter.tv accesses rare, out of print or presumed-lost VHS and DVDs for customers. Is there a similar site for books? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theskinnytypist (talkcontribs) 04:16, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note: added a header This google search has several good leads. --Jayron32 04:22, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Abebooks is very comprehensive. --Viennese Waltz 08:33, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I mostly use BookFinder, which aggregates search results from many other sites (including Abebooks). Deor (talk) 12:25, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Deor, good to know. — SMUconlaw (talk) 13:42, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Soledad Pastorutti[edit]

I'm a bit confused about the last line of Soledad Pastorutti's entry - Mariage's fruit with Jeremias Audoglio [sic]. I think it's referring to the fact that she and her husband had a daughter, but in English it doesn't mean anything. I don't want to correct it as I don't know what the original intent/meaning was, so it wouldn't be fair. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soledad_Pastorutti 86.184.89.208 (talk) 23:23, 29 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think you're right. According to the scantily referenced article in the Spanish Wikipedia, Pastorutti is married to Jeremias Audoglio and has two daughters, Antonia and Regina (the latter was just born last month).--Cam (talk) 02:03, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It's obviously a bad machine translation from the Spanish. μηδείς (talk) 02:07, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed the wording. We still need sources, though. StuRat (talk) 14:11, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
