Are you thinking of this as something that one would not need an account to perform? If people use their individual accounts to upload their own works under a collective pseudonym, then they might as well each create their own composer categories, since their usernames are effectively distinct pseud...

It's been on IMSLP-US for around three years; not sure what that has to do with anything. I can't open it on my computer either.

Very little idea what you mean by that. You're saying you can't see links to MIDI files on this site (or others), or they just won't play? Did you try opening them in an external program (i.e., not within your browser)?

Yes, that would be fantastic to have here - it would have to go under one of the Creative Commons licenses (rather than public domain), but it's definitely welcome on IMSLP. An outline of the uploading procedure can be found at this page.

It might also be advisable to wait a couple days before confirming that everything went through correctly, because of the server's caching mechanism. I doubt it should really take that long, but still, it definitely won't be instantaneous.

They are, they just don't have separate pages - they appear in their own sections on the page for the appropriate opera.

I think she probably meant tags can't be suggested in some sort of automated user-driven mechanism, or something like that, since while the tagging guidelines can and have been amended on many an occasion, at any particular point they can be assumed to be immutable - that is, they apply to every pag...

Well, wouldn't it be rather superfluous anyway, given that things which include continuo outside of large ensembles/orchestras are already tagged specifically for them? Isn't there a 'scores featuring basso continuo' category, or some such, as things stand presently?

I assume you mean Adobe Reader - have you tried using a different program to open the files? For example, I'm using qpdfview and the couple test Schutz downloads I tried displayed perfectly fine.

I can't think of any language where the adjective comes after the noun ... Well, for a start, how about all the Romance languages? Though I think it's clear anyway that the word fugue here refers to the musical form and does not serve to describe, say, the fugue state in which one might find onesel...

Well, I assume the OP meant the score to the entire opera, not just the excerpts on that page. I'm not so sure there even is a printed edition of the full score.

Can you read a Schirmer edition of a work, and enter the notes and markings into a notation program and have it be a new edition and not in violation of copyright? If it is out of copyright in your jurisdiction, then yes, absolutely. What about if you read it and play it into a midi file and conver...

Only to volume 2, but to be on the somewhat excessively safe side, the status of volume 1 may also depend on its prior publication history - any earlier engravings or manuscript facsimiles, how earlier copies were distributed, etc. A cursory search on WorldCat shows that libraries in Switzerland and...

How can you be sure that that is a urtext edition? Well, have a look at the title page: Ausgabe nach den Quellen . (There are also a few footnotes that indicate the original score had a Revisionsbericht , see e.g. page 8.) On further examination this appears to be not quite a straight urtext, as so...

It's an urtext edition, though, so Klemm's contributions don't count for full copyright status in Canada and the EU, at least (don't know about South Africa). Not sure why it's not blocked in the US, however - at a guess, it might have to do with its publication being in the GDR.
