Is the uploads not registering in wimaredirects.txt? I think this is the case. I looked for the "Cantus" file of the "Credo" of "Missa da pacem", as suggested by Reccmo. Specifically, I searched inside wimaredirects.txt for the WIMA filename "3_2_Credo_Cantus.pdf&...

I started out preparing a perl script searching the WIMA/IMSLP transfer log file for not working redirection URLs. The perl script extracts the IMSLP URLs from the log file and tests their validity by calling one of the *nix utilities 'wget' or 'curl'. This script has turned out to be definitely no ...

In my talk page WIMA project participant Jeko89 reports errors with some IMSLP/WIMA redirections I've completed, after many uploads, the transfer of all files by Simone Stella and Fritz Brodersen. I've tried to check if the automatic redirects from WIMA to IMSLP works with all files... but it doesn'...

How frequently are you adding composers (or, roughly how many more composers do you need to add)? Most of the 'composers' I've been adding recently are performers of music by Frederic Rzewski. The WIMA database has an entity 'Person' for registering composers, publishers and contributors; but perfo...

Almost every time I add a new person (composer, librettist, performer) to IMSLP I need to post-edit the article in order to fill in the template parameter 'Nationality'. It would ease the addition of this information if the parameter 'Nationality' could be part of the initial editing form. Any hope ...

It looks like ===Tab Title=== work page lines are not reflected as tabs for now?

... it is a methodical problem to make entries within a list of persons unique based on the names of the persons. You need a unique identification, typically a number, which must be completely independent of the name of the person. How would we do this, though? IMSLP uses MediaWiki, and that means ...

Actually this happens more often than you would think, and there are several fathers and sons who shared the same names, for example. Each case is taken on its merits, and in this particular one the best solution is to use "Jesper Jacobsen" for the modern editor, which would leave no room...

While updating a number of work pages for compositions transferred from WIMA I've encountered a limitation in IMSLP's registering of Persons : among the WIMA contributors is a musicologist whose name is 'Jens Peter Jacobsen', i.e. exactly the same as a famous Danish poet living in the second half of...

From a WIMA/IMSLP user, oseely@hotmail.com, I've received an error report on Easy Trios for Violin, Op.34 by József Bloch ('http://imslp.org/wiki/Easy_Trios_for_Violin,_Op.34_(Bloch,_József)'): Sorry for the bother. The IMSLP offering of Trios Faciles by József Bloch is missing pages 5-6 for the Vio...

This evening I received an error report on opening the work page http://imslp.org/wiki/Canzoni_per_sonar ... _Giovanni) when a user is logged in to IMSLP

A colleague WIMA contributor and WIMA->IMSLP project participant reports a problem when attempting to transfer a WIMA score to the IMSLP work page, http://imslp.org/wiki/Secular_Works_%28Isaac,_Heinrich%29. After clicking the final 'I accept' button in the upload pages he gets an error message sayin...

I'm experiencing a similar problem with the work page http://imslp.org/wiki/6_Flute_Sonatas,_Op.1_%28Cannabich,_Martin_Friedrich%29 It comes out blank (with Mozilla browsers) when I'm logged in to IMSLP. My chromium browser is more helpful: it reports a http 500 error when I attempt to access the UR...

The work page instrumentation parameter turned out to be wrongly filled. Now corrected to Musette (in E♭ or F) or Alternative Double Reed Instrument (oboe, oboe d’amore, English horn, Bass Oboe, Bassoon) and piano

Please update instrument categories

I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, but there are other manual steps in the categorization process, besides adding the codes to the pages. I believe you answered my question anyway. I was wondering whether some server logic would parse the Instrumentation parameter of the outer work page ...
