IMSLP Forums

Thanks for all your help.

It looks like some of the discussion from the "Stravinsky, Igor Fyodorovich" talk page got deleted and was not included on the "Stravinsky, Igor" talk page. I restored it from my own user "talk" category.

That's nice. But shouldn't that page be linked to by "discussion" at http://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Stravinsky,_Igor? (The link is currently broken.)

This is the case for all other composers, e.g. http://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Bach,_Johann_Sebastian.

There are currently two FTE templates in use that I know of: For imslp.org-hosted scores: http://www.imslp.org/wiki/MediaWiki:FTE:imslpfile For externally-hosted scores: http://www.imslp.org/wiki/MediaWiki:FTE:externally_hosted_score I am using FTE:externally_hosted_score for IMSLP-US (cf. http://im...

The discussion section for "Stravinsky, Igor" (http://www.imslp.org/index.php?title=Category:Stravinsky,_Igor) apparently got deleted some time yesterday. I believe this was a mistake. Further, the "discussion" link (http://imslp.org/index.php?title=Category_talk:Stravinsky,_Igor...

Aha! I had no idea there was a distinction between a composer search and a general search (obtainable by hitting enter instead of clicking on one of the search buttons). Ever since I started using the IMSLP (a couple of years ago!), I could never understand why searching for e.g. "Bach" di...

The Google search works for Zelenski as well as Dvorak. If plain Zelenski is used, some results (including the one at the very top) have the plain-Z spelling, but some have the spelling with diacritics. At any rate, I still consider it a serious problem that searching for plain Zelenski on the Proje...

Is there a way to configure Mediawiki to perform searches in a diacritics-insensitive manner? Google does this. It's the only way I can conceive would solve the problem entirely.

The composer W?adys?aw ?ele?ski (http://imslp.org/wiki/Category:%C5%BBele%C5%84ski%2C_W%C5%82adys%C5%82aw) is devilishly hard to find. (And just look at that URL!) One has to search for him using the letter Z with the appropriate diacritic. Of course, he's not even browsable because his last name do...

I created (and uploaded files from Sibley): http://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Yafil%2C_Edmond-Nathan_(ibn_Chebab) The page that already existed (with files from Sibley) is: http://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Yafil%2C_Edmond-Nathan The information on the pages I created is more accurate (it contains everyth...

Why are Sibelius' Humoresques composed in 1923 or later blocked?

I'm sorry. I was asking about other composers's works before 1923.

Are there other pre-1923 works which you have available for mirroring that are so far only provided in an obscure fashion (like this)? I'm interested in mirroring on a US-located server any and all such works, but I don't know where to locate them.

Jonathan

Do I have your permission to mirror these works? On a US server of course, and will full credit given. Everybody should have free, convenient access to these works -- either as individual PDFs from which one can choose or as a whole collection in an easy-to-use format (RAR is proprietary and evident...
