We have a tagging team to take care of all that, so you don't need to worry about it

Don't worry, you've done nothing wrong. There's always a delay in new things appearing for users who aren't logged in (it's called "caching"). The system should catch up in a couple of days, but until then you're probably best staying logged in.

This would normally go on the opera's workpage, unless, for example, the composer had set a different text to the music to make it a completely different work

OK, all sorted.

Different titles, different opus numbers, so no need for the confusing "(No. 2)" in the page title, even if it appears in the score. I've moved it to ""Marguérite douleureuse au rouet, Op.26 (Zabel, Albert)"

There's a line called "|Page Type=" which can be used to make these kinds of changes, and hopefully all are fixed now.
