I noticed that the links to the Edition Wilhelm Hansen domain (ewh.dk) on the Nielsen’s 1st Symphony page seem broken, and apparently the web distribution of their sheet music is now exclusively via wisemusicclassical.com. I might replace links where I encounter them, but maybe it’s worth doing some...

I’m aware that the Manual of Style instructs to post those details to the Misc. Notes section. So I guess this is also me being so bold as to request changing that policy. I’ll try argue my point a bit: There’s usually one Misc. Notes field for one publication. As long as of that publication there i...

Here I was, thinking this might be interesting and you had ideas. Unfortunately, you only noticed a want for ideas and had a machine simulate something that seems like ideas. No thanks, I’m on IMSLP because of the creativity of humans. Nobody needs software (that was developed on stolen content!) re...

Surely it would be within policy to add a Misc. note about the issues with those parts, as well as giving them low ratings.

I’m not in any offical capacity, but for what it’s worth I don’t think that 3k of memory is going to have any relevant impact. It’s a fundamental principle of such a Wiki that previous versions of content generally don’t get deleted. Maybe a future musicologist will want to study the way you worked ...

Assuming that it is useful for there to be versions of the same score tailored for different page sizes and purposes available (untailored “raw” scan, tailored but original page size, DIN A, letter, versions with very small or zero margins for screen use…) (colour, greyscale, mono b/w) (different re...

Whelp, I only saw now that bug reports should have [BUG] in the title, and I can’t edit the title now. I’m sorry, I’ll do it right in the future!

Für "Klavierauszug" gibt es ja im Englischern das Wort "piano reduction". "vocal score" meint eine Zusammenfassung der Gesangsstimmen, wobei gegebenenfalls eine Continuostimme oder ein Klavierauszug der Orchesterbegleitung hinzugefügt wird. Die Gesangsstimmen werden ab...

I’m on Firefox 142.0.1, 64-bit, Linux Mint. Unfolding the “Commercial Recordings” on any page with more than five recordings, I can initially only see one of the recordings (and if I hover over it, another one partially shines through); scrolling horizontally will reveal five; then scrolling works a...

I just came across this issue in Hans Gál’s Violin Sonata while making this edit: https://imslp.org/index.php?title=Violin_Sonata,_Op.17_(G%C3%A1l,_Hans)&diff=next&oldid=4148094 I decided to use the Key template for both the keys listed as main key of the work; first I wanted to do {{Key|bb}...

The Firefox alert further says that the download uses an “insecure connection”.

Hello good folks, since a couple weeks (?) Firefox doesn’t want to download files from the standard IMSLP servers due to a “Potential security risk”. You can manually allow the downloads, but it’s annoying since there is no popup and I have to remember doing that or I might notice only later. I don’...

For some reason (probably due to the dispersed first editions) there is often confusion around this set of pieces for liturgical use at Berlin Cathedral. I have verified that the “General Information” on https://imslp.org/wiki/Die_Deutsche_Liturgie,_B_57_(Mendelssohn,_Felix) is correct: it matches t...
