Comments:

  • No DAB links, no dead links, files check out in terms of copyright
  • There's an error in the "Further reading" section, as I'm sure you know. You could copy the code from the template and paste it in the "date" section; perhaps that would work? Otherwise, I would just use a c.
  • WorldCat lists the book at Leiden University Library [1]; can you ask for the copy? According to our article, "the library manages the largest collections worldwide on Indonesia [...]", so if you're planning a trip, make a note of this book.
  • [2] might be of use somewhere.
    • Without knowing the context of those snippets, I can't be certain, but the one on page 99 looks like the author and Wongso visited a local leader (lurah). The second one (p. 101) seems to be about trying to find a buffalo in the ravine (I'd expect it to be the same trip). — Crisco 1492 (talk) 18:23, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I receive a preview, from [3], of:

        • I actually have that book (well, a more recent edition)... but it's at home, 16,000 km or so away. Reads like dialogue between the author, Nio Joe Lan, and Wongso. Depending on how much detail there is, it could be useful, but I can't know for sure until I get back to Indonesia in February. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 18:23, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • A JSTOR search yields nothing other than the Barnard article. Let me know if these are of any use. Seattle (talk) 04:34, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'd be more stringent with regards to comprehensiveness if this were a featured article candidate, but for Good article criteria, I'd say this meets criterion 3. Passing; thanks for the prompt responses. Seattle (talk) 18:45, 17 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
