Wow - thank you for such helpful advice!

I know one can move pages and I thought that one could move incorrect names of composers, etc. But I see one has to be an admin. So I'm requesting two moves of composers: 1. Billy Heagney. The page has the name as Billy, Heagney instead of Heagney, Billy: https://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Billy,_Heagn...

I'm uploading a lot of popular songs. I've long felt that popular songs need 3 access points for the title: 1. The actual song title 2. The first line of the song (when it's different from the title) 3. The first line of the refrain or chorus (when it's different from the title) If one is uploading ...

A banner at the top of the Sheet Music Consortium indicates that the site will be unavailable after April 24, 2026. https://digital.library.ucla.edu/sheetmusic/ From what I've heard the site will probably disappear because UCLA and no one else wants to support it.

Just posted it. Should be reviewed in a few days.

I hope to upload it sometime this weekend.

Agreed. I remember when there were generally 10-20 works posted a day. Now there are well over 100 works posted each day (probably due to the new public domain works). I don't believe any administrator "works" for IMSLP full-time - it's an all-volunteer operation. Keep this in mind and giv...

You can see all the new scores that have been submitted on Dec. 24 and following (and before) here: https://imslp.org/wiki/Special:IMSLPRecentAdditions/0/700 There are literally hundreds of works to go through and (I believe) only a handful of administrators who can ok them. So you'll need to be ver...

Done! Thank you for these three.

Done!
