Re: [FEAT]Translator parameter on work info level

You can add the translator, complete with the template, to the Librettist field in the General Information section as long as it's original to the piece not something added years later. I tried that when I edited the work page for Gerson's Vorschlag zur Güte some days ago. I got no error on invalid...

[FEAT]Translator parameter on work info level

A number of vocal works by the Danish composer Georg Gerson were originally written to multiple version of its lyrics, for example a German poem by Goethe recreated in Italian ( http://imslp.org/wiki/Vorschlag_zur_Güte,_G.35_(Gerson,_Georg) ). You'll find other, older and newer works like that by ot...

[BUG] Can't upload files

My file uploads fail with error messages on an empty page. Another IMSLP/WIMA contributor, Michel Rondeau, is experiencing similar upload problems.

[FEAT]Detailed usage statistics

In continuation of a discussion thread in another forum, Other: Detailed usage statistics I suggest an addition to IMSLP's usage statistics allowing contributors and other interested people to look up download counts for specific files. This can be implemented by adding a few lines to the 'webalizer...

Detailed usage statistics

A former WIMA- and current IMSLP- contributor has asked me how to get information on the number of downloads for a specific IMSLP file. By googling a little around I've found that IMSLP applies the same statistics software, 'webalizer', which I'm also using for WIMA. My Google search gave me a link ...

Re: [FEAT]Marking revised files

There should be dotted lines on the date; if you hover over it you will see the updated date. Updates won't show up on the main page. I didn't notice the dotted lines at all before you told me. I'm afraid other IMSLP users will not be aware of them either. Could you possibly replace the 'balloon he...

Re: [FEAT]Marking revised files

There should now be a new feature that tells people when a file has been updated (and the last updated date). How do I know that this feature is working? Yesterday I updated score files for string quartet no. 4 by Georg Gerson. Today the files have been approved by a copyright reviewer. And yet I d...

[FEAT]Marking revised files

Like I did for my own WIMA contributions and those from other WIMA contributors I renew my IMSLP contributions when I receive error reports and suggestions for improvement. A few minutes ago that happened for my modern edition of String Quartet no. 4 by Georg Gerson. I experience it, however, as a p...

Re: Copyright protection warnings on contemporary composers

I'd say that just removing "and are thus subject to deletion" would do the trick already, since that's something that contemporary contributors to IMSLP DON'T want to happen. Or maybe it could be replaced by something like "and are thus subject to deletion, unless the uploader is als...

Copyright protection warnings on contemporary composers

The WIMA contributor Jennifer Paull has sent me an email complaining on copyright protection warnings, 'All works by this person are still under copyright in Canada, the EU, Japan, and elsewhere and are thus subject to deletion' on contemporary composers represented in IMSLP's Amoris collection (mus...

Re: [BUG] Faulty IMSLP/WIMA redirections

I've reported a related bug at the wiki but here is probably the best place to discuss it: composer redirections from WIMA sometimes end up on a nonexistent page at IMSLP, because of faulty character conversion. This only happens for composer names that contain language-specific characters: http://...

Re: [BUG]Work page 'Ariadne Musica (J.K.F Fischer) has error

I think the issue is the size of the page - there are now 344 files on it, and I think it's already been reported that enormous pages like that do not load well. Would it be possible to split the page up into smaller subpages so the file concentration per page would be lessened? (You can still edit...

Re: [BUG]Work page 'Ariadne Musica (J.K.F Fischer) has error

The 300+ items probably did it in. Basically, the server will kill any page that loads for longer than 30 (or maybe it was 60) seconds as a hung page. I may try raising the limit, though the fundamental problem would unfortunately still be there. If it is not hard to combine the files, I'd suggest ...
