Here http://imslp.org/wiki/M%C3%A9thode_des_ ... es,_Ignaz) Moscheles's and Fetis's authorships are about equally shared. The book is in Moscheles's works, because when you add a work you have to choose either composer, but how can I cause it to show up also in the Fetis composer page? Would a Fetis tag be enough?

For works like this that aren't collections, just use [[Category:...]] (with the appropriate composer's name after colon, lastname, firstname order. For collections it needs to be {{ColCat|Firstname|Lastname}} I think...

Thanks. Hope I did it at the right place and with the right punctuation.

We also have a means to set up Collaboration pages, which work identically to Collections

|Page Type=Collaboration (added field in General Info)

{{CollabCat|FN|LN}}

This is good for cases where two or more composers worked together on a single work.

It may also be a good idea to add the Attrib template (with an appropriate authorship statement) to the top of the page. This will add an eye-catching message box at the top of the page informing users that the work has multiple authors.
