Seems to be fixed already ... thanks!

The https://imslp.org/ server returns an error message "502 Bad Gateway". Could somebody have a look, please?

Yes, but that simply repeats the question, namely whether typesetting constitutes "a manner requiring permission under the Copyright and Similar Rights held by the Licensor".

Any good authoritative sources saying that it does?

Hi Deborah, you may want to check here: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 . Essentially, this license says that you need to to credit the original author, that you must not earn money with what you do, and that you must not distribute a modified version.

As far as I know, adding bar numbers does not meet the "threshold of originality" requirements, so my answer would be "No".

Please see section "Editions of Public Domain Works" of https://imslp.org/wiki/Public_domain where this is explained quite nicely.

On a given computer one browser complains, the other does not. I assume this is not the "certificate was issued for another address" complaint, because all browsers should treat his equally as a failure, unless one of them is (mis-)configured to ignore it. Do browsers fetch the list of CA...

Thanks for taking the time to try out new things - I think the new layout certainly is a step in the right direction. Some suggestions though: Could we leave the "How to Contribute Works" below the search box - (right now it looks like a heading for the search box)? Do we need that much sp...

Do servers have to pay something for this service? That basically depends on the quality of the certificate. On the low end, there are some free certificate authorities that essentially only verify "control over the server", i.e. if you can demonstrate that you can answer mails to "w...

Is there a lack of competance by the site administrator? Essentially, yes (although it is not always easy for administrators to get these things right). But you should always be suspicious if these browser warnings occur. Technically, the problem lies in the initial exchange of public keys as Chora...

War wohl ein Hardwareproblem: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=7631. Jetzt geht es jedenfalls wieder.

I wonder if this is going to be the next chapter of viewtopic.php?f=6&t=7436 ?

I can somehow see good arguments on both sides and would like to come back to Notenschreiber's idea of a compromise, trying to find a point of view that could be acceptable for both parties. How about this: Both parties agree that the DIAMM items currently on IMSLP are in the public domain, and that...

Hmm, could be: My typeset of transposed Bb clarinet parts for Beethoven's 7th ( http://imslp.org/wiki/Symphony_No.7,_Op.92_%28Beethoven,_Ludwig_van%29 ) seems to have got a 1-star rating (not sure when that got there, though). I do not believe the typeset merits such a low ranking - it is performanc...

With Acrobat Reader, try "Size Options: Fit" under "Page Size & Handling" in the "Print" dialog. This will automatically resize each page to fit the paper. The quality of the scan is actually quite good, more than enough pixels for a print, but apparently the size i...

The closing brace should be part of the link, then it works:
