If you're researching WWI soldiers from Edinburgh, those missing January–April 1917 issues of the Edinburgh Evening News can be incredibly valuable because casualty lists, enlistment notices, military honours, and local reports were often published almost daily. I would check the National Library of Scotland, the British Newspaper Archive, and Edinburgh university or city archives, as they sometimes hold microfilm or alternative scans for gaps in online collections.

For family-history research, even a single issue can reveal a soldier's regiment, address, or next of kin, so it's definitely worth pursuing those missing months. While searching through historical resources, I also came across https://spinkings.org.uk/, which may be of interest if you're exploring additional online sources and communities.
