Misspelled composer name

Here I am trying to add a few composers/ other people and I have just misspelled the name "Yuri Veselovsky" which should correctly be "Veselovski". Could one of the mods please correct this. Sorry and thank you in advance.

Re: Duplicate composer category?

I have just created a category for "Leon Chojecki 1858-1931" and I see that there is already a category for "Lech Chojecki 1858-1931". Which is the correct one? OCLC/WorldCat Identities has him listed as Leon but there is very little information about either version.

Re: Duplicate composer category?

Thank you!

I think I have just spotted another one - there are separate categories for "Helene Nyblom" and "Helena Nyblom".

Re: Duplicate composer category?

I just noticed another possible duplicate composer category - there are separate categories for Zachris Topelius and Zacharias Topelius. It seems to me that they are the same person. Could mods please merge?

Re: Oops - I've done it again..(spelling error in composer name)

error of the day:

Josef Herrmann Hillischer (1825-1897) should have just one "r"" in the middle name.

Oh well, at least I've managed to go 3 months between composer misspellings.

Re: Oops - I've done it again..(spelling error in composer name)

Thank you!

Today's error: Peter Aloys Schultheys should be "Schultheis."

Don't know how I managed to do that, with an article containing the correct spelling in front of me.

oh well...off to find more "red letters" and exterminate them...

Latest stuff-up:

Composer category "Richard James Beamish" - should be "Richard Joseph Beamish."

Thank you once again to mods.

When it comes to typos, I am the Queen!

I can spot them because I am an expert at making them.

Unfortunate spelling error in work title!

Just glancing through recently uploaded items - noticed that there is a song by Franz Abt entitled "He Gives His Beloved Sheep." As a church choir geek, I thought "hang on...is that really how the Biblical text goes?" According to Google and the King James Bible: " It is vai...

Re: Upcoming changes

I agree with the concerns expressed so far in this thread. I'm not as articulate as many others, and I don't know much about how the financial side of running IMSLP works, but I would love to know more, even if it's in the simple format of "$X needed to cover costs for this month - $Y already r...

Duplicate composer category?

Not sure where to put this, so I've made a new thread. I have just noticed that there are 2 separate composer categories/ pages: Frederic Weatherly and Frederic Edward Weatherly. These appear to have the same birth and death dates and thus I assume they are the same composer. Would it be possible to...

Latest typo...

I have just created a composer page for Albert Mayer-Reinach. Unfortunately I spelled it "Meyer-Reinach".

Thank you once again and I hope everyone has a merry Festive Season and a Happy New Year.

"Lionel Seymour Benson" is missing the 'e' in 'Seymour.' I realised as soon as I had clicked on the "submit" button. :oops:
