Re: Recommend deprecating Worldcat links.

Point. (Edit: and I'm a little irritated at archive.org's attitude during all this - unless their pay "library" is being seriously misrepresented, even the potentially sympathetic courts are going to shut it down really fast, I think, and perhaps the rest of the site as well - but that's o...

Re: Recommend deprecating Worldcat links.

Interestingly, if the item is at NMI for example (or perhaps at one of the other libraries one of whose catalogs is a Worldcat subcatalog), and one opens NMI's link at NMI-Worldcat (linked to from NMI Bibliotheek and doing a search...), then the additional information link, with key etc., works. Hrm.

Re: Recommend deprecating Worldcat links.

I'm absolutely fine with our sources being print citations, but not fine with them being TMB (trust me bro), to the extent that anyone cares about my opinion!!!

Re: Recommend deprecating Worldcat links.

I think it’s on the verge of dropping toward that break-even point myself, where its dead, misleading and invalid links to other libraries, its insistence one create an account (only available to institutional users, I think) before lowering the rate-limit boom, etc, make it underusable. OTOH if all...

Recommend deprecating Worldcat links.

Because Worldcat has begun putting in critically disabling (imho) limits on use, and because IMSLP and Wikipedia pages often use - I am a culprit here - Worldcat/OCLC links as evidence that things exist - I would recommend going past the Worldcat page to one of the libraries that Worldcat usually po...

Re: RHUL

Site seems to be inaccessible for another reason- bad certificate or something?

Ah, audio length is now automatically generated for mp4 files. I was unaware of this.

Re: a request

Yes, you're right about IMSLP-US. Hopefully IMSLP-Taiwan will just need some tweaking before this feature gets back on track as well.

a request

When uploading scores or recordings such that IMSLP cannot automatically detect the filesize and/or #pages from the files (e.g. mp4 audio, or IMSLP-US or IMSLP-Asia-only files such that the only score that IMSLP sees is the 1-page blocking file) please (this is not me as an administrator- I have no ...

Re: Rezső Seress

Born 1899, died 1968, so still in copyright everywhere in the European Union. 1967 manuscript is at New York Public Library, but this is not the autograph; it was published apparently as Seress' "Gloomy Sunday" (the English translation) by Chappell in 1936 (unless this is a coincidence of ...

Raff "Allegretto" in G major for piano trio

Recently, a posthumously-published "Raff Allegretto" in G major for piano trio was uploaded, duly tagged, etc. I see it occurred to nobody to see if Raff :wrote any works for piano trio (.. 4 whole trios) :if any of them contained any movements in G major (bing! no.2 -is- in G major) :if w...

Re: William Grant Still needs a composer entry

The symphony will be public domain in the US only in 6 years (having been published in 1935.) If other works of his were published in the US in 1929 or earlier and are digitized and ready for upload, or if arrangements by him or works by others he edited (that are public domain somewhere), likewise,...
