List of compositions by Joseph Joachim Raff

I noticed a divergence between our List of compositions by Joseph Joachim Raff and these external lists at raff.org:
http://www.raff.org/music/catalog/opus/woo.htm
http://www.raff.org/support/download/catalog.pdf

The divergence begins at WoO.20. I noticed this when I tried to link these work pages from our work list:
Concert Paraphrase of Abendlied by Robert Schumann, WoO.24 (Raff, Joseph Joachim)
Valse-impromptu à la tyrolienne, Wo.O.28 (Raff, Joseph Joachim)
The WoO. numbers in the work page titles match those in the external lists, but in our list they are WoO.25 and WoO.29, respectively.

Please advise.

Grove doesn't use the WoO numbers, but I found a list elsehwere that matches the one on http://www.raff.org, so it looks like our list is at fault. I've changed the numbers accordingly, so you should now be able to add the links, (Actually the whole list needs a bit of careful checking.)

Thanks for running the latest worklist check, BTW, which is extremely useful.

Actually this provides an opportunity to undertake the long-needed renaming of this category to "Joachim Raff", which is the way in which this composer is listed in our three main sources (Library of Congress, Grove and Wikipedia), and at the same time correct some of the naming/numbering errors in the process. I'm making a start now...

Ok, so I don't have to check everything, are the compositions in question (is it just those two?
