User:Mr. Stradivarius - I received the email, but it turns out that I already had JSTOR access through my old university so I never followed the link in it. I wasn't aware that I had access when I signed up, which was quite a while ago now I think. Sorry for the extra hassle. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 21:23, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
User:Tiller54 - I was asked to email User:Ocaasi, which I did, but I haven't heard back. Tiller54 (talk) 21:30, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
All done now, thanks very much. Tiller54 (talk) 13:27, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Justlettersandnumbers: I'm very grateful to have been offered access, thank you. My alumnus access was due to expire last year, but has not yet done so, so I would like to decline the offer so that someone else can have the benefit of it. Sorry for any extra work this may cause.

Jagged 85: The message at User talk:Jagged 85#WP:JSTOR access is to a banned user who has been indeffed since September 2012 (background here). That's nearly two years ago, so it's hard to see how the message could occur now. Johnuniq (talk) 22:54, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Probably because of a parsing error. The Jagged85 cleanup was mentioned by User:Merlinme in their request for JSTOR access consideration - see Approved List, entry 334. jxm (talk) 23:23, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Dwpaul: I did not receive a message from Sadads on my Talk page, but I did sign up for JSTOR access on June 23 and received an emailed request from Madmanbot on July 22 that I complete a Google Docs form to confirm my request for access. I did so immediately on July 22. I have received no further communication from JSTOR or from anyone else concerning access to JSTOR, other than The Interior assuring me on his Talk page that it is in the works. Just letting you know I'm still interested and that something may have gone awry. Dwpaul ^Talk 23:27, 5 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Finally did receive an email from [email protected] on August 8, believe I'm all set; belatedly letting you know. Thanks. Dwpaul ^Talk 22:21, 13 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Quondum: I did not receive any message on my talk page, but did receive an email to complete a Google docs form and have heard nothing more. Still no JSTOR access though, even though I've registered an account with them. A query to JSTOR has not been answered yet. —Quondum 00:21, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
JSTOR has now answered my query and access has been granted. Problem fixed. —Quondum 03:49, 9 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Richard Keatinge I've recently found that I can have alumnus access to JSTOR - if only I can work out how. In any case I'd like to withdraw my application here. Richard Keatinge (talk) 07:20, 6 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

MinorProphet ~~I don't appear to have received an email from anyone, the message on my talk page from Sadads is the first notification about my JSTOR request. Thanks. 22:07, 13 August 2014 (UTC)~~[reply]
I eventually found the email in a long-forgotten account & sent off the form, thank you. >MinorProphet (talk) 20:02, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Dougweller Filled out the form, but nothing - which is good as Yale has recently given access to alumni, so I'm sorted without this. Dougweller (talk) 13:41, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

SMcCandlish has received note from Sadads on talk page some time ago, looked in e-mail and found that message (misfiltered), responded to and submitted the form the e-mail links to, just now. That is all. I have no particular expectations about when I'll get access instructions. :-) — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽^ʌⱷ҅_ᴥⱷ^ʌ≼ 03:24, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Bfpage I am pretty grateful to have been approved to use JSTOR through Wikipedia. I received the email asking me to supply my username and email address which I filled out and submitted. This is as far as the process has moved forward for me. I've checked my talk page and there are no messages concerning JSTOR access for me. Is there something else I need to do? Did something get lost? bpage (talk) 23:02, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Grolltech Last year, I did a free registration on the JSTOR site using the same "Grolltech" username – that only gives me 3 articles every two weeks. I received your email and filled out the form about a month ago, and then deleted your email. I have not received confirmation, either via email or talk page, and my account is still limited. Just wondering at what point I should start to worry, or if I need you to resend the email. Thanks! —Grollτech (talk) 18:57, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I received the email a while ago, but only realized that now. Hopefully the form still works. Thanks for the Wikipedia Library Team! Bennylin (talk) 17:27, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nor have I (from July's 2nd batch), but I did see this, which might be part of the problem. ~~Still awaiting the email with instructions for sign-up.~~ Regards, CasualObserver'48 (talk) 10:34, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The problem CasualObserver refers to is specific to Yahoo Mail accounts. I switched my email account from Yahoo some weeks ago and can now receive Wikipedia emails, so this is not my problem. John M Baker (talk) 11:09, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I received the email today, so apparently it just took longer than I expected. John M Baker (talk) 20:07, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have been checking my email since July and still have not received any instruction on how to search JSTOR. I have a significant backlog of journal articles that I need to read to provide reliable references to many of the articles to which I contribute. Is there a way for me to help speed up this process?

Round 5

I received an email from Madmanbot on April 10 2015 with a link to a Google Docs page, which I completed, but haven't heard anything since then. Is this the normal process or did an email potentially get caught in the spam filter? Neil916 (Talk) 17:46, 5 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bump. Still haven't heard anything. Neil916 (Talk) 18:08, 25 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

My final confirmation took several months, don't give up. I managed to register with an email account I don't often use. Something may depend of the quality and/or quantity of your contributions to WP, although I have no idea if this is really the case. (Have you created a new article recently?) By the way, thank you, JSTOR-type people, for allowing me this privilege; it has opened up a whole new source of reliable information, and I feel that this access to quality, relatively up-to-date research is a major contribution towards an overall improvement of WP. I don't say it often, but hurrah for the good ship Wikipedia and her partners. >MinorProphet (talk) 21:03, 23 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Another bump. Still haven't heard anything. Neil916 (Talk) 03:10, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
