Sumedha. I am not sure whether this is an MA thesis or a PhD thesis. If it is the latter, I'd like to use it for the wiki article.
Thanks,
Pajz. This has helped me to determine that it is indeed a PhD thesis, and contains useful information which can be used for
Sumedha, as well as the article about
Five precepts, which I have recently successfully nominated for GA and might try to promote to FA at a later stage. If you can access the thesis (I cannot), please send me a link, and I would appreciate it.--Farang Rak Tham(Talk) 20:31, 7 May 2019 (UTC)reply

@
Jo-Jo Eumerus: I agree with WBG. Often papers presented at conferences are never published, although abstracts may be. That's particularly true when authors have put a topical spin (tropical spin?) on their work by mentioning Hurricane Katrina when it was on everyone's mind, but before much science could have been completed on it. The authors might, or might not, continue developing the work and eventually submit it to a peer reviewed journal, possibly years later and under a different title. At least that's my personal experience with academics and similar technical meetings. Liu, for example, doesn't list the paper on his profile,
[23] but contributed a chapter to an encyclopedia the next year: Liu, K.B. (2007). "Paleotempestology". In Elias, S. (ed.). Encyclopedia of Quaternary Science. Elsevier. pp. 1974–1985.
