you've sorted by date added or searched for "Bring the noise" in Zotero to make sure it's definitely not there?
Does this work on other sites you have tried?

If so, please provide a debug ID from Chrome for clicking/touching that icon:

For wbenjamin.org see https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/no_address_bar_icon (first paragraph, i.e. there is no metadata on the website)

For seanstrum.wordpress.com it's essentially the same reason. Zotero never shows a URL bar icon when you're looking at a PDF, since there is generally no recognizable metadata embedded in PDFs. Typically, you would want to perform metadata import from a page that _leads_ you to the PDF, but in this case, there is no structured metadata there either (there's a formatted reference of the work, but that is generally not recognizable by computers).
