Sorry for the bump, but I didn't feel like this required its own thread. I need a quick sanity check on US copyright duration. I've been looking into the copyright status of a work published in 1924 ( Were you there? by H.T. Burleigh). I looked through the copyright catalogs at the U Penn site, and ...

I was searching for spirituals yesterday, and couldn't find any. I looked up HT Burleigh's "Negro spirituals : arranged for solo voice", and it looks like a good candidate for upload. Published pre-1923 and Burleigh died in 1949. I think "Negro Spiritual" or just "Spiritual&...

The "Page count (override)" field is not generating wiki markup correctly. Instead of putting the number entered into the markup, it just puts a bunch of question marks.

No worries. I've sent a follow up via email.

The source code can certainly be published with the account name omitted. The account name can then be included when compiling for submission to the app store. For the time being, I can do this. [Removed by Feldmahler: this section is a security-related discussion, so I've removed it from this post....

It's often a good idea to contact the uploader directly for these types of things. He or she will have the best chance of knowing where to get a hold of the original to make a new scan. You can message someone through the wiki by leaving a comment on their user discussion page, but since the uploade...

Yes, I realize. I've already put in a request for access.

F.P. Tosti wrote a handful of songs using poems by Githa Sowerby, who died in 1970, meaning it will be about eight years before they can be uploaded to IMSLP. So far, every one of these songs I've run across was published before 1923, making them public domain in the US. Are there any other requirem...

The first step will be to get an API account for the Android app. One thing I am a little unclear on is how the account name is used. Should the account name just be hard coded into the app? Wouldn't that let anyone reuse the same account name by reading the source code on GitHub? Is there a passwor...

Looks like it's working. Thanks.

Searching for a combination of attributes via the category walker works just fine. Searching for "voice, piano" && "English language" gives me this URL. http://imslp.org/index.php?title=Category:For_voice%2C_piano&intersect=English_language&transclude=Template:Cat...

This is classified as a song, but has no vocal part. Otherwise I think it looks like it's categorized correctly.

Thanks.

The old title still shows up on the composer page. Is this something that will correct itself?

I seem to have made a typo when creating a work page some months ago.

The name of the work should be "O dolce meraviglia!"

I think this score contains pieces that earlier scores don't. I don't know if they're newly discovered, or just not regularly published. I would expect that at the very least these arias have new piano reductions. That probably makes them a no-go.
