Re: Terrible user-submitted parts

We don't delete files due to authors requesting to have them removed because they regret submitting them and want to revoke a license. We have the right and ability to remove files if they are useless garbage. There is a difference.

The disambiguation tag can use any string. In a case like this, the category name should be something like, instead of Bach, Johann Christoph , Bach, Johann Christoph @Ohrdruf^ or similar. The @ and ^ mark the disambiguation tag. This is entered in LinkPerson templates as value 5 (e.g., {{LinkDed|Jo...

Re: Saverio Mercadante Flute Concerto in e-minor

Even if first published in 1973, the piece itself cannot be copyrighted in the United States unless that publication was made under the authority of Mercadante's heirs. Of course, the piece may have been published earlier (per the legal definition of publication). I don't know off the top of my head...

Re: Clara

Of course there is no legal precedent interpreting this license, because it has never, as far as I know, been litigated at all. The text of the license is quite plain, however, and you must understand that no permission is given except as expressed by the license. Also, while it is not necessarily s...
