Except for those times what is cited is a scientific journal behind a paywall. You can’t really quote those unless you pay up.
Then there’s the whole “WikiGate” (terrible name, but whatever) where Elsevier gave free accounts to Wikipedia editors[1]. That doesn’t help.

- HBlix 8y agoSci-Hub is pretty amazing for any paper that has been out for as long as most sources on Wikipedia have been, so in truth you can almost always read them in full.
- ndnxhs 8y agoNever finds the stuff I search :/
- ajot 8y agoYou should try with Library Genesis first. Both projects cooperate (so if LG doesn't have something, it gets added when downloaded from SH, and SH gives you a link from LG when it's already on their DB), but I find the LibGen search engine to be far more powerful, throwing me the article I need when SH can't.
- akvadrako 8y agoReally? Do you search by doi number? It’s a direct proxy to university databases - it should have almost everything.
