== New edition not showing up / thanks for the redirect ==


== duplicate CPDL numbers ==
Hi Claude, thanks for the redirect on my user page (and for bumping my edition of [[As Vesta was from Latmos hill descending (Thomas Weelkes)|As Vesta was]] to the top of the page for chronological ordering--I'll be sure to do that next time).
 
I see my new edition listed when I view [[As Vesta was from Latmos hill descending (Thomas Weelkes)|As Vesta was]] while signed in, but not otherwise. Is this normal? Am I missing something?
 
Thanks!<br>

:You're welcome, Maïa! Recent changes are seen only when connected (logged in). But after a few hours, perhaps a day or so, they remain seeable by anybody.
 
:By the way, we use to add, as a source file, an MXL (compressed musicXML) file with each edition. The reason for that is to be more user-friendly for the users who don't have the same notation software as the editor. If they have a recent software, they can open such file, to adapt the pitch to their choir abilities, to make rehearsal files, etc. You may add any file to your edition clicking on 'Upload a file' in the left pane of any CPDL page, under 'Tools'. You'll also, next time, be able to add an MXL file in lieu of the Sibelius one through the AddWork form. [[User:Claude T|Claude]] ([[User talk:Claude T|talk]]) 06:45, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
 
== Michael Praetorius - Quem pastores laudavere a 4 ==


Hi Claude,
Hi Claude,


CPDL No 23695 [[Magnificat I (Anonymous)]] and CPDL No 38837 [[Magnificat (Tr91) (Anonymous)]] appear at first glance to be identical, except for the introductory page. If one is deleted, is there a reason for picking one edition number over the other? All the best, [[User:Richard Mix|Richard Mix]] ([[User talk:Richard Mix|talk]]) 09:32, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
there is an existing page of [[Quem pastores laudavere a 4 (Michael Praetorius)]], which first edition claims to be from [[Musae Sioniae, fünffter Theil (Michael Praetorius)]], but the page is not linked to this publication. The two other publications on this page are similar but different, and all three are not any version from "Musae Sioniae V". (In "Musae Sioniae" the numbers 88, 89 and 90 are "Quem pastores a 4", but with different extras).
:Hi, Richard. Do you mean it is the same work? Better merge two editions on the same page, then. Even better ask the editor himself. [[User:Claude T|Claude]] ([[User talk:Claude T|talk]]) 11:02, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
 
So I added a second page [[Quem pastores laudavere a 4 with children (Michael Praetorius)]], which I linked to "Musae Sioniae V, No 88".
 
If I find time I will add No. 89 from the autograph, put it to [[Quem pastores laudavere a 4 (Michael Praetorius)]] and link it to "Musae Sioniae V, No. 89", because it's the most similar source for the existing three editions.

Hi,  
== Wikipedia version of this guy as a bishop, not a composer ==
'''Samuel Gavitt Babcock''' (1851–1938) was an American bishop in the Protestant Episcopal Church. He graduated from the Episcopal Theological School at Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1891. After holding pastorates in Rhode Island and Massachusetts he was archdeacon of Massachusetts from 1903 to 1913, when he was elected suffragan bishop of Massachusetts. --[[User:Music4Ever|Music4Ever]] ([[User talk:Music4Ever|talk]]) 17:32, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

I uploaded a new edition of [[Full fathom five (Charles Wood)]], but my source file is in Steinberg Dorico format (.dorico), which doesn't appear to be supported yet... any chance of allowing this format. I also tried .xml for a Music XML file which also doesn't seem to be allowed.
== 2020 ==


Also, when adding the new edition I originally changed the capitalisation of the title, which created a new page. I think I've sorted it by adding again with the correct capitalisation, and editing the wrong one to be a REDIRECT to the correct one... but you might like to check it's all OK now - it certainly looks OK from the front end!

:Hi, Barry, well done! I like the table much and it fits the page width, right to the sponsors' column even on my iPad. You should perhaps delete the line between icons and software names. About increasing the number of icons, I don't see more icons needed for internal files. Regarding external ones, I'll add an "external NWCs" today but other occurrences are too few to deserve another icon in the legend.

== SiteNotice ==
Claude, I entered the details of this work today but after doing this I did not get the usual email with the code to use in creating the new work. Did I do something wrong? [[User:Jgoodliffe|Jgoodliffe]] ([[User talk:Jgoodliffe|talk]]) 17:12, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
:Hi, Jonathan, Many thanks for all your contributions! For what I can see, you uploaded three files concerning that work, but I don't see that you filled the AddWork form as before, for the other works. Please go to the Ortell's composer page, click on 'Add new work' on the upper right part. Fill the AddWork form, but no need to upload the files, you did it already. By the way, adding an MXL (compressed XML) file allows more users to use your edition(s), not only those who have Sibelius. Feel free to upload the MXL file in lieu of the Sibelius one, if you don't want to upload both files. Kind Regards, [[User:Claude T|Claude]] ([[User talk:Claude T|talk]]) 21:37, 2 March 2020 (UTC)

Claude. Thanks for this. My version of Sibelius (5.2.5) can only import, not export XML files.

When it is used for a part of the works, like <nowiki>{{SortWorks|Sacred}}</nowiki>, like di Lasso's one, it is not shown in the list. But the manual part of the page can be incomplete. To be more precise, Max has implemented a template, <nowiki>{{Recent_additions}}</nowiki>, that EVER adds, on top of the composer page, the work-page title where a new EDITION has been added. But it is not added in due place and, above all, it creates superfluous duplicated line(s) when SortWorks is used and each time it is the second (or more) edition.

Hi Claude,
Hi Claude,
I know you're mindful of clutter, and I've taken to trying not to leave too many redirects when moving pages myself. "What links here" is useful though to avoid redlinks on text- and other hand-maintained pages. I'd be happy to hear what you think about [[Help talk:Style conventions#Apostophe's]] though! [[User:Richard Mix|Richard Mix]] ([[User talk:Richard Mix|talk]]) 02:13, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
:The use of an apostrophe is the responsability of the editor and I respect it.
:1. The question here was about typography: using a curved apostrophe.
:a. The curved apostrophe is typographically correct and is used for printed material. But as I read in the page you pointed:
Although ubiquitous in typeset material, the typographic apostrophe ( ’ ) is rather difficult to enter on a computer, since it does not have its own key on a standard keyboard.
:Until yesterday a user wanting to search for works like [[L'aura che'l verde Lauro (Luca Marenzio)]] or [[I' piango (Luca Marenzio)]] shouldn't have found them easily, even on the Marenzio['s] page, the creator of that pages having used a curly apostrophe in the title.
:b. As our Wiki system rejects the curved apostrophe with the diacritics after Z in the alphabetic sorting, such titles weren't found where expected.


The LinkText template at [[Three Motets, Op. 69 (Felix Mendelssohn)]] is causing TextAutoList to add the '''Larger work''' page to text pages that already include Op. 69 No. 1,  Op. 69 No. 2 and Op. 69 No. 3. Do you have a better solution than mine? [[User:Richard Mix|Richard Mix]] ([[User talk:Richard Mix|talk]]) 15:14, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
:2. As you (and Carlos), I'm "trying not to leave too many redirects when moving pages". So I leaved the curly apostrophe without redirect, because the redirect became superfluous;

:3. Perhaps do you imply that I should have searched for links to the old typography throughout all the database. Anyway, ninety percents of composer pages are automatized and such a change is therefore instantly reflected on them. I'm in favo[u]r of automatizing ALL of the front composer pages (not removing other lists but putting them just a click away). The ten percents of composer pages that are manually maintained should be maintained manually by those who don't want them to be automatized.

2. I uploaded a MuseScore version of the file as well, and although MuseScore is now in the list of formats in the dropdown on the file upload page, it came out as a text link with the full file name. I changed that to read MuseScore instead - is that ok? Or should I just wait for an admin to do whatever needs to be done?

3. Should I include an xml file as well? (I guess I should, eh? Silly question - disregard)

[[User:Eyolf|Eyolf]] ([[User talk:Eyolf|talk]]) 19:33, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
:Hi, Eyolf. A warmful welcome to CPDL. Thanks for your contributions. My answers below:
:1. Files are stored on our servers according to their names, so you can update their content very often and easily replace an obsolete version by an updated one, keeping it *the same name*. Consider that the name itself is not so important.
:2. MuseScore files aren't yet in the list but will enter it soon. I just added the corresponding icon: {{Muse}}.
:3. Yes, please add an MXL (compressed XML) file for each edition, just because many more users can open them than a source file from any of each music notation software.

== Work name snafu ==
There is apparently some confusions about Anton Bruckner's settings of the Pange lingua and Tantum ergo.


I just uploaded a metrical Magnificat (#48679) and it came into conflict with a previously submitted Magnificat (#29649).  I didn't think to have a descriptor after the title when I filled in the Add Work form.  So naturally the new Mag picks up the files from the earlier one.  An attempt to change the info of the earlier on back, changes the new one to be the same thing.  I ran into this last year with two settings of Psalm 1, with texts by different authors.  Would you be able to amend the title of #48679 to "Magnificat (Webber)"?  Thanks!    I have a Nunc Dimittis to upload later, and for it I shall make sure I remember to add a descriptor to the title in the Add Work form.  [[User:Tweedfour|Tweedfour]] ([[User talk:Tweedfour|talk]]) 18:13, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
Bruckner composed two settings of the Pange lingua: WAB 31 and WAB 33 (phrygian, with Tantum ergo) and eight Tantum ergo: chronologically WAB 32 (wrongly issued by Grasberger as "Pange lingua, WAB 32), WAB 43, the four settings of WAB 41, WAB 42 and WAB 44.  
:Hi, Thurlow. Thank you for your contributions. I just created  [http://www.cpdl.org/wiki/index.php?title=Magnificat_II_(Thurlow_Weed) that page], where you'll be able to replace all the infos by the ones you received by mail. Feel free to give me another descriptor for that page and/or for the previous one. [[User:Claude T|Claude]] ([[User talk:Claude T|talk]]) 19:37, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
::Thanks, Claude.  Am I correct in thinking that I need to change the "Magnficat" in the Chris Webber section to read "Magnificat II" and then proceed with entering the Works entry data pasted into the page you linked?  I just did  trial of that, and in the preview the "Magnificat II" showed in red, as it normally would for a new entry.  [[User:Tweedfour|Tweedfour]] ([[User talk:Tweedfour|talk]]) 20:54, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
::: I don't think so. I changed the content of the "Magnificat II" page with all the information from your recently received mail, as the lyricist (Webber) So, the Webber page now automatically includes "Magnificat II" as a work having text from him. Please add the underlay text of the work at the bottom of [http://www.cpdl.org/wiki/index.php/Magnificat_II_(Thurlow_Weed) your work page].

::::Thanks. I'll get to that in the next day or two.  I'll also make sure the new Nunc Dimittis includes the "II" when I fill in the New Work form, so as to avoid repeating this adventure.  It seems to be a quirk of ChoralWiki -- that a composer page cannot list more than one work with the same title without some designator to separate it from the others.[[User:Tweedfour|Tweedfour]] ([[User talk:Tweedfour|talk]]) 21:51, 3 February 2018 (UTC)


== Corsi da Celano ==
You have wrongly reverted "Tantum ergo, WAB 32 (Anton Bruckner)" to "Tantum ergo, WAB 31 (Anton Bruckner)". I have reverted it.


Hi Claude, thanks for cleaning up my terrible coding. I'm trying to do as much as possible myself but just seem to make things worse.
There are currently two different pages on WAB 32: "Tantum ergo in D Major, WAB 32 (Anton Bruckner)" and "Tantum ergo, WAB 32 (Anton Bruckner)". These two pages should be merged.
I added this composer yesterday as there was no page and it's still not right... Could you please edit the composer's page to be Giuseppe Corsi da Celano? Also, I've made some corrections and was trying to upload a new file but there wasn't the [[File]] link there, I probably missed it out when I copied the original. Cheers, Will.

Bonjour Claude,

Les deux sont présents sur ChoralWiki, mais vu leur date de publication et d'activité, il me semble assez évident qu'on les met sur une seule pageMalheureusement, cela m'a échappé comment joindre (merge) deux pages, donc je préfère garder le status-quo plutôt que de créer des dégâts.

== How to remove my file? ==
== Why dost thou shoot (Wilbye) ==
@Claude_T: You reverted an edit I made to remove a link to a Lilypond .ly file. I removed the link because I uploaded the .ly file by mistake--I do not want my Lilypond source files on CPDL (at least not yet -- the code is certainly not commented/ready for use by people other than me). I cannot determine how to remove the uploaded .ly file. I see references to deleted pages in various Wiki docs, but I cannot discover a process to remove a document uploaded by mistake. All I could think of was to remove the automatic link. This is for [[In Human Vesture (J. Guy Stalnaker)]], [[File:InHumanVesture.ly]]. If there is a process to delete a document I'd appreciate guidance on what that is. I'm happy to make the necessary edits to the page once the file is removed. Regards. [[User:Gstalnaker|Gstalnaker]] ([[User talk:Gstalnaker|talk]]) 15:58, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
:I use to remove files that are 'orphans' (recently uploaded but not linked from any edition). We have more than 1,500 such files on our servers, uploaded but unusable by anyone. For each of your files, you can/may click on the white icon on the right of the file link icon. It will open the file's page, where you can easily remove it (if you are the uploader). [[User:Claude T|Claude]] ([[User talk:Claude T|talk]]) 16:27, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
::Thank you, sir! Understand the method. I didn't notice that the link shown when my cursor is over the File Details icon includes "File:" in the URL making it, well, different and thus to a different wiki page. Thanks for removing the .ly file.


== Arranger page and editor page ==
Claude, for some reason, Capella produces a corrupt mxl file, with the bass missing. Seth spotted this and I tried reloading, but it didn't work. The same thing was true of the version you uploaded. I'll try playing around with the format, but I think the file needs deleting if it has errors.
Claude - you reverted an edit I made to add myself as arranger to the version of this work I uploaded to CPDL. I did that so that the work would show in the list of compositions that are on my CPDL page. I thought the Hassler work would appear in the list of compositions the same way that the Charpentier work appears - title (composer). I compared the two listings and saw that the difference is that the Charpentier has me as both arranger and editor while the Hassler work did not. So, I added myself as arranger tp the Hassler work. The work then appeared in the list of works on my CPDL page. Fifteen minutes later you reverted that edit. When you remove arranger, the work no longer appears in the list on my CPDL page. I take this visibility to be a function of how CPDL wiki constructs the page. I write to you to ask if I'll break anything if I add a section on my CPDL page for works that I've edited, like the Charpentier and Hassler (I'm thinking of doing some more of this editing for the Hassler works that may not yet be on CPDL)?

== New category: Música colonial scores ==
It occurred to me that it might be a problem with the multiple curved braces in the system, since I seem to recall that earlier unsolved problems involved my editions with multiple braces. So I produced a revised version without braces. However, when I uploaded the mxl file, deleting the previous one, and then downloaded the mxl file from the works page, it was the old version that appeared! [[User:Jamesgibb|Jamesgibb]] ([[User talk:Jamesgibb|talk]]) 10:56, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
:I've seen that in the past. Machines on Internet don't resend a file if it has the same name on your disk, even if its content is different.

I think there is a problem with Capella when creating mxl files that have more than one curly brace. I've just uploaded a version of The Goslings (Bridge) and when I checked the file that has been uploaded, the stave descriptions were misplaced. So I'll adjust for that in the future.[[User:Jamesgibb|Jamesgibb]] ([[User talk:Jamesgibb|talk]]) 15:06, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Would you be kind enough to create a new category entitled "Música Colonial scores" so that I can generate a list of them? If you want to call the category something slightly different that is OK.
Is it worth having a specific category for "odes to music". These would include, for instance, Schubert's "An die musik" and Purcell's "Music for a while". There are quite a few of these on CPDL already and I am working on one by the composer Maurice Greene at the moment.

Hi Claude.  You seem to have replaced the <nowiki>{{NameSorter}}</nowiki> template with something like <nowiki>{{Surname, FirstName(s)}}</nowiki>, but that doesn't work, because the <nowiki>{{ ... }}</nowiki> are not supposed to be there when putting an explicit sortkey. See [[Template:NameSorter]].  Note that the template actually takes the last word in the full name and puts it first, followed by the rest of the words in the full name. Anyway, I've fixed the three instances you put <nowiki>{{ ... }}</nowiki> around the sort key ... for they had the effect of pushing the entry in the Composers category to "[". -- [[User:CHGiffen|Chuck]][[User talk:CHGiffen|<sub><small>'''talk'''</small></sub>]]&nbsp;[[User:Charles H.

I reverted your edit to [[ChoralWiki:Seasonal music]] because since Advent of 1969 (when the church calendar was changed to its present form with Ordinary Time replacing the former seasons after Epiphany and after Eastertide), the order of Pentecost X and IX were switched, with Ordinary Sunday 15 taking its Mass Propers from Pentecost X and Ordinary Sunday 16 from Pentecost IX, respectively. See the table at [[Ordinary Time]]. -- [[User:CHGiffen|Chuck]][[User talk:CHGiffen|<sub><small>'''talk'''</small></sub>]]&nbsp;[[User:Charles H. Giffen|Giffen]][[Charles H.

I want to know how to proceed and have the following questions.
a. Is this the right platform for these old compositions?
b. Finale 27 stores the files in a **.musx file. It also allows an export to: **.PDF,  **MusicXML, and **MIDI files. Do I submit all 4 file types?
c. I also do transcribe and translate old Spanish documents for the Cibola project at Berkeley U. of California. For those projects I take high resolution photos of the individual pages and provide them for the fellow researchers. Does CPDL also want that for these old documents?
d. How do I proceed? Should I try to submit one of my transcriptions and then ask you to edit/check the work before I follow with the others?
 
Sorry to have so many questions but I am a neophyte and want to do this work in the best fashion.

:Hi, Mike. Thanks for coming to us and willing to contribute. This is the right place, concerning all choral/vocal music.
:As you can see, we already have a composer page for [[William Boyce]] and other composers you cited. So, the straight way to take is to check (on composer page) if the work has already a work page. If yes, just click on "Add new edition" (upper right part of the work page). If not, just click on "Add new work" (upper right part of the composer page).
:AddWork form that opens has to be filled, including picking files to upload (there is a line for one of each file type: PDF, MXL (compressed MusicXML), and so on). I consider that these two formats are recommanded and are sufficient for most of our users, should they be conductors or singers.
:Our general architecture is based on one independant work page for each composition, that is, containing all movements of the work and all editions contributed by all our editors. Work pages are automatically linked from/to their corresponding composer page.
:You'll also see that we already have publication pages as [[Cathedral Music, Volume 1 (William_Boyce)]]. A newly edited work page appears on its corresponding publication(s) when the 'Pub[lished]' field of the AddWork form is correctly filled. That can be adjusted later.
:About [manuscript] facsimiles, particularly of instrumental music, please consider IMSLP procedures.
:Receive our warm welcome in advance for your contributions. Don't hesitate to ask for more. [[User:Claude T|Claude]] ([[User talk:Claude T|talk]]) 13:57, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

== Vaughan Williams ==
Hi Claude,
Claude, I notice that Paolo Pandolfo has uploaded another of his scanned scores, this time of something by Vaughan Williams, Love's last gift. The copyright is assigned to CPDL but, as VW didn't die until 1958, it is likely still to be copyright in the EU, though perhaps not in the US. Although there is a copyright warning on the composer page, I feel there should be one one on the works page too, but I dont know how to do this. Any thoughts?<br>

The page title for [[Weinachts Oratorium (Christmas Oratorio), BWV_248 (Johann Sebastian Bach)]] has an ugly spelling mistake "Weinachts Oratorium" (should be spelled "Weihnachtsoratorium" with an "h" and it is just one word).

Hi Claude.
Since about an hour an a half ago, there have been four essentially duplicate Add work forms submitted for " Abschiedslied der Zugvögel, Op. 63 No. 2 (Felix Mendelssohn)", all supposedly by you, with manual wiki code submission option: yes.  The "user/submitter" has used your name and two of the three email addresses that I have on file for you. The CPDL numbers thus used are 70040-70043.  But none of these has actually been posted.  I'm not sure what to do about this or or how we might block further malicious submissions like this.  Anyway, I thought you need to know. -- [[User:CHGiffen|Chuck]][[User talk:CHGiffen|<sub><small>'''talk'''</small></sub>]]&nbsp;[[User:Charles H.

:Hi... (Your first name here ;-). Thanks for your contributions to this site. You are right, only one line is given for a "Music notation file". I guess that programmers have thought that one would upload an .mscz file OR an MXL one [the MXL one being usable by quite all users, the MSCZ one only for MuseScore users]. So, feel free to add only the MXL file. If you want, you may also upload manually your MSCZ file, adding then a link to it, copied/pasted from one of the links in the edition.
:By the way, I must say that all users may use only their nickname to download files, write anything,… until they create a (copyrighted) edition, whatever the copyright is, even a no-copyright one. All people may know who has the rights or has freed the copyright. So, if you agree, let me know what [First name-Name] should be used for editor. Your talk page will ever remain as "mirabilos".

I stumbled a bit by adding a descriptor to the Anonymous composer of second title that I submitted - sorry about that.
I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble to fix that, or easier to leave it as is:

New edition not showing up / thanks for the redirect

Hi Claude, thanks for the redirect on my user page (and for bumping my edition of As Vesta was to the top of the page for chronological ordering--I'll be sure to do that next time).

I see my new edition listed when I view As Vesta was while signed in, but not otherwise. Is this normal? Am I missing something?

Thanks!
Maia.mcc (talk) 04:12, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

You're welcome, Maïa! Recent changes are seen only when connected (logged in). But after a few hours, perhaps a day or so, they remain seeable by anybody.
By the way, we use to add, as a source file, an MXL (compressed musicXML) file with each edition. The reason for that is to be more user-friendly for the users who don't have the same notation software as the editor. If they have a recent software, they can open such file, to adapt the pitch to their choir abilities, to make rehearsal files, etc. You may add any file to your edition clicking on 'Upload a file' in the left pane of any CPDL page, under 'Tools'. You'll also, next time, be able to add an MXL file in lieu of the Sibelius one through the AddWork form. Claude (talk) 06:45, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

Michael Praetorius - Quem pastores laudavere a 4

Hi Claude,

there is an existing page of Quem pastores laudavere a 4 (Michael Praetorius), which first edition claims to be from Musae Sioniae, fünffter Theil (Michael Praetorius), but the page is not linked to this publication. The two other publications on this page are similar but different, and all three are not any version from "Musae Sioniae V". (In "Musae Sioniae" the numbers 88, 89 and 90 are "Quem pastores a 4", but with different extras).

So I added a second page Quem pastores laudavere a 4 with children (Michael Praetorius), which I linked to "Musae Sioniae V, No 88".

If I find time I will add No. 89 from the autograph, put it to Quem pastores laudavere a 4 (Michael Praetorius) and link it to "Musae Sioniae V, No. 89", because it's the most similar source for the existing three editions. User:Volker Seibt (talk) 13:16, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

Samuel Gavitt Babcock (1851–1938) was an American bishop in the Protestant Episcopal Church. He graduated from the Episcopal Theological School at Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1891. After holding pastorates in Rhode Island and Massachusetts he was archdeacon of Massachusetts from 1903 to 1913, when he was elected suffragan bishop of Massachusetts. --Music4Ever (talk) 17:32, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

Qui habitat by Ortells

Claude, I entered the details of this work today but after doing this I did not get the usual email with the code to use in creating the new work. Did I do something wrong? Jgoodliffe (talk) 17:12, 2 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi, Jonathan, Many thanks for all your contributions! For what I can see, you uploaded three files concerning that work, but I don't see that you filled the AddWork form as before, for the other works. Please go to the Ortell's composer page, click on 'Add new work' on the upper right part. Fill the AddWork form, but no need to upload the files, you did it already. By the way, adding an MXL (compressed XML) file allows more users to use your edition(s), not only those who have Sibelius. Feel free to upload the MXL file in lieu of the Sibelius one, if you don't want to upload both files. Kind Regards, Claude (talk) 21:37, 2 March 2020 (UTC)

Claude. Thanks for this. My version of Sibelius (5.2.5) can only import, not export XML files. The cost of upgrading the software, which in all other respects does everything I want, is disproportionate. However, I will keep an eye out for a possible solution Jgoodliffe (talk) 09:51, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

Dido and Aeneas by Purcell

Claude, I see you have effectively managed this work on CPDL. Would you object if I were to edit it just to highlight that it is not "complete", flagging missing movements (such as the prologue) and noting that those movements have been reconctructed (e.g. by Thurston Dart) although they are in copyright so cannot appear on CPDL.

…without leaving redirect

Hi Claude, I know you're mindful of clutter, and I've taken to trying not to leave too many redirects when moving pages myself. "What links here" is useful though to avoid redlinks on text- and other hand-maintained pages. I'd be happy to hear what you think about Help talk:Style conventions#Apostophe's though! Richard Mix (talk) 02:13, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

The use of an apostrophe is the responsability of the editor and I respect it.
1. The question here was about typography: using a curved apostrophe.
a. The curved apostrophe is typographically correct and is used for printed material. But as I read in the page you pointed:
Although ubiquitous in typeset material, the typographic apostrophe ( ’ ) is rather difficult to enter on a computer, since it does not have its own key on a standard keyboard.
Until yesterday a user wanting to search for works like L'aura che'l verde Lauro (Luca Marenzio) or I' piango (Luca Marenzio) shouldn't have found them easily, even on the Marenzio['s] page, the creator of that pages having used a curly apostrophe in the title.
b. As our Wiki system rejects the curved apostrophe with the diacritics after Z in the alphabetic sorting, such titles weren't found where expected.
2. As you (and Carlos), I'm "trying not to leave too many redirects when moving pages". So I leaved the curly apostrophe without redirect, because the redirect became superfluous;
3. Perhaps do you imply that I should have searched for links to the old typography throughout all the database. Anyway, ninety percents of composer pages are automatized and such a change is therefore instantly reflected on them. I'm in favo[u]r of automatizing ALL of the front composer pages (not removing other lists but putting them just a click away). The ten percents of composer pages that are manually maintained should be maintained manually by those who don't want them to be automatized.

difficulty creating new score pages

Claude,

When I try entering a new score page I get this error message "There is currently no text in this page. You can search for this page title in other pages, search the related logs, or create this page". Am I doing something wrong? Also I now find I can log on in Microsoft Edge but not in FireFox. Can you help? Jgoodliffe (talk) 10:02, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi, Jonathan,
I'm not a specialist, but I guess you're not logged in, when you see that. Please, try to type an 's' after 'http' in the URL address bar above, or a complete 'https://' string before the page title, if you don't see anything before 'www.cpdl.org'. I hope this helps. Claude (talk) 12:52, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
Claude,
Thanks for your help. The score pages mysteriously appeared overnight. In trying to get the system to work yesterday I am afraid I seem to have created 4 redundant music numbers - 697 to 700. Jgoodliffe (talk) 11:27, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
No problem, Jonathan. From time to time, we need such unused CPDL numbers, to split an existing edition or some other reason ;-) Claude (talk) 12:33, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Anton Bruckner - Tantum ergo

Dear Claude,

There is apparently some confusions about Anton Bruckner's settings of the Pange lingua and Tantum ergo.

Bruckner composed two settings of the Pange lingua: WAB 31 and WAB 33 (phrygian, with Tantum ergo) and eight Tantum ergo: chronologically WAB 32 (wrongly issued by Grasberger as "Pange lingua, WAB 32), WAB 43, the four settings of WAB 41, WAB 42 and WAB 44.

You have wrongly reverted "Tantum ergo, WAB 32 (Anton Bruckner)" to "Tantum ergo, WAB 31 (Anton Bruckner)". I have reverted it.

There are currently two different pages on WAB 32: "Tantum ergo in D Major, WAB 32 (Anton Bruckner)" and "Tantum ergo, WAB 32 (Anton Bruckner)". These two pages should be merged.

Best regards, Meneerke bloem (talk) 15:48, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

I've merged the most recent page content into the oldest, as usual here (to keep history). Claude (talk) 16:31, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
Thank you. Meneerke bloem (talk) 18:56, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

My common.js

Hi Claude, you have delete my user Javascript page, the reason was assumed spam/vandalism. This javascript page only affects my own useraccount and nobody else or anything else on this wiki. Why would I want to vandalize or spam my own user account? I just added a gadget which I use for my useraccounts on many other wikis, I am storing the code centralized in a wiki where I have admin rights. This is where the include-statement comes from, there is absolute no harm in it. If you do not want users create their own javascript page a bureaucrat can to change the wiki's central settings, Manuela (talk) 14:16, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi, Manuela,
Just after I removed the script (the reason had to be choosen in a short list, not quite appropriate, though), I wanted to restore it. A bug in the system didn't let me succeed in that. I then took advice by my fellow admin Max who mainly wrote: "I get the same error: I guess that there may be a bug or some special configuration to do when handling pages containing Javascript code.", "It seems this user registered in 2016, and only used our wiki to test wiki code probably used somewhere else. The Javascript code entered is a custom code used on another wiki " and "It's probably unharmful, however I'm not that happy that someone uses our wiki as if it were their test wiki...". Claude (talk) 14:35, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
I am not using this wiki as testwiki, I have added some scores in 2016. I wanted to add more then, for some reason which I do not remember I did not continue, maybe because I started to create my own wikis, Manuela (talk) 20:54, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
Perhaps that page could help you: User:Claude_T/DPL_queries/LY I suppose that scripts are allowed only by admins, here as on all other wikis. Claude (talk) 21:24, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for the link, Claude. I could not figure out an easy way to find all Lilypond scores, and Lilypond code is displayed as text without syntax highlighting, I guess this were the reasons why I stopped editing her, greetings Manuela (talk) 08:14, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
You're welcome, Manuela. Claude (talk) 08:31, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

Why dost thou shoot (Wilbye)

Claude, for some reason, Capella produces a corrupt mxl file, with the bass missing. Seth spotted this and I tried reloading, but it didn't work. The same thing was true of the version you uploaded. I'll try playing around with the format, but I think the file needs deleting if it has errors. Hope you are surviving the boredom of Covid. At least, the number of contibutions stays high! Jamesgibb (talk) 08:12, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Ah, Ok, feel free to remove link and file itself.
Yes, all well here: more time for site maintenance ;-) Claude (talk) 10:17, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

It occurred to me that it might be a problem with the multiple curved braces in the system, since I seem to recall that earlier unsolved problems involved my editions with multiple braces. So I produced a revised version without braces. However, when I uploaded the mxl file, deleting the previous one, and then downloaded the mxl file from the works page, it was the old version that appeared! Jamesgibb (talk) 10:56, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

I've seen that in the past. Machines on Internet don't resend a file if it has the same name on your disk, even if its content is different. The solution is to delete the previous version in the list. Using a different browser generally does the trick. Claude (talk) 11:33, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Right, I've changed the name of the mxl file before uploading and that seems to have solved the problem! Didn't need to change browsers. Do you still have a list of the my uploads where we had similar problem withe the mxl file?Jamesgibb (talk)

I think there is a problem with Capella when creating mxl files that have more than one curly brace. I've just uploaded a version of The Goslings (Bridge) and when I checked the file that has been uploaded, the stave descriptions were misplaced. So I'll adjust for that in the future.Jamesgibb (talk) 15:06, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

i don't retrieve the list of missing MXL files. I remember there were just a few. I opened the file mentioned above, under Finale, and it seems correct to me, including a (singing) Bass line. Claude (talk) 16:04, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Odes to Music

Claude

Is it worth having a specific category for "odes to music". These would include, for instance, Schubert's "An die musik" and Purcell's "Music for a while". There are quite a few of these on CPDL already and I am working on one by the composer Maurice Greene at the moment. Jgoodliffe (talk) 12:03, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, I've no advice about the question. Please try the forums or another admin. Claude (talk) 13:02, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

New works remain in cache

Hi Claude, I'm rather new to CPDL, so I'm wondering why my last 4 new work contributions (since June 13) remain visible in the cache as well as in the normal list. I saw you did some small editing on my editions which is quite OK.

Hi, Wytze, on your composer page, I clicked on ‘Edit’, then on ‘Save’ and renewed the operation. BTW, three of your files remain orphans (they aren't linked from/to any 'Requiem' work page). Please create the corresponding work page soon. Claude (talk) 12:06, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

New edition PDF cannot be opened

Hello, Claude. I've been reworking the Distler Jahrkreis. At No. 11 (Wie Schön leucht't) I cannot open the PDF that I recently uploaded. I tried to upload it again, but it was rejected as an identical file. Also, with No. 1 (O Heiland, reiss die Himmel auf), I cannot update the MXL file, also rejected as identical. If you have and suggestions, I'd be grateful for them.


Jim Pearson

Hi, Jim. 1. At No. 11, We can see, clicking on the white icon, just right of the PDF one (that leads to the file history: File:Distler11WieSchön.pdf) that you uploaded under the same name and extension different files that aren't PDF ones. I've just reverted your uploads to the last correct PDF version. 2. At No. 1, I've removed the MXL file to make way for you to upload and link it. To update further files, just let me know. Kind Regards, Claude.

new member help

Dear Claude, I am new to CPDL. I am a collector of old music and also a composer and arranger. I have transcribed into Finale 2014 many early works. I have just upgraded to the new finale 27 but have not updated my 2014 files as I wanted to make sure before I start that work that I am doing it the right way to make it available on CPDL or some other platform.

Among many other compositions, I have transcribed the following complete collections:

1. William Boyce: Cathedral Music Vol. 1-3 first edition. I have done this as sort of an Urtext leaving the original clefs, time signatures, etc. I have also typed in the figured bass as provided by Boyce

2. William Boyce / Vincent Novello: Novello's organ realization (1850s) of Boyce's Cathedral Music Vol. 1-3

3. Samuel Arnold: Cathedral Music Vol. 1-3 first edition. I have done this as sort of an Urtext leaving the original clefs, time signatures, etc. I have also typed in the figured bass as provided by Arnold

4. Samuel Arnold: Organ realization by Samuel Arnold of his Cathedral Music (about 1790)

5. Maurice Greene 40 Anthems first edition -- again as an Urtext

I have many more but these are a sample.


I want to know how to proceed and have the following questions. a. Is this the right platform for these old compositions? b. Finale 27 stores the files in a **.musx file. It also allows an export to: **.PDF, **MusicXML, and **MIDI files. Do I submit all 4 file types? c. I also do transcribe and translate old Spanish documents for the Cibola project at Berkeley U. of California. For those projects I take high resolution photos of the individual pages and provide them for the fellow researchers. Does CPDL also want that for these old documents? d. How do I proceed? Should I try to submit one of my transcriptions and then ask you to edit/check the work before I follow with the others?

Sorry to have so many questions but I am a neophyte and want to do this work in the best fashion.

Mike Wallen Mike Wallen (talk) 12:47, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi, Mike. Thanks for coming to us and willing to contribute. This is the right place, concerning all choral/vocal music.
As you can see, we already have a composer page for William Boyce and other composers you cited. So, the straight way to take is to check (on composer page) if the work has already a work page. If yes, just click on "Add new edition" (upper right part of the work page). If not, just click on "Add new work" (upper right part of the composer page).
AddWork form that opens has to be filled, including picking files to upload (there is a line for one of each file type: PDF, MXL (compressed MusicXML), and so on). I consider that these two formats are recommanded and are sufficient for most of our users, should they be conductors or singers.
Our general architecture is based on one independant work page for each composition, that is, containing all movements of the work and all editions contributed by all our editors. Work pages are automatically linked from/to their corresponding composer page.
You'll also see that we already have publication pages as Cathedral Music, Volume 1 (William_Boyce). A newly edited work page appears on its corresponding publication(s) when the 'Pub[lished]' field of the AddWork form is correctly filled. That can be adjusted later.
About [manuscript] facsimiles, particularly of instrumental music, please consider IMSLP procedures.
Receive our warm welcome in advance for your contributions. Don't hesitate to ask for more. Claude (talk) 13:57, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Page title wrong / cannot move page

Hi Claude,

The page title for Weinachts Oratorium (Christmas Oratorio), BWV_248 (Johann Sebastian Bach) has an ugly spelling mistake "Weinachts Oratorium" (should be spelled "Weihnachtsoratorium" with an "h" and it is just one word). It seems I don't have the right to move the page, but maybe you can? Christof Chen

Alleluia: Maria Dei Genitrix (Adam Rener)

Hi Claude, I noticed you moved this page to Alleluia: Maria Dei Genitrix (D-Ju MS 33) (Adam Rener).

Repeated duplicate Add work forms submitted under your name.

Hi Claude. Since about an hour an a half ago, there have been four essentially duplicate Add work forms submitted for " Abschiedslied der Zugvögel, Op. 63 No. 2 (Felix Mendelssohn)", all supposedly by you, with manual wiki code submission option: yes. The "user/submitter" has used your name and two of the three email addresses that I have on file for you. The CPDL numbers thus used are 70040-70043. But none of these has actually been posted. I'm not sure what to do about this or or how we might block further malicious submissions like this. Anyway, I thought you need to know. -- Chucktalk Giffen 17:10, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

MXL addition

Thanks… I was unaware I could add both MSCZ and MXL (the form didn’t give me that option), and this is my first upload here. Perhaps either the form could be amended or this could be mentioned in the docs?

mirabilos (talk) 17:18, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

Hi... (Your first name here ;-). Thanks for your contributions to this site. You are right, only one line is given for a "Music notation file". I guess that programmers have thought that one would upload an .mscz file OR an MXL one [the MXL one being usable by quite all users, the MSCZ one only for MuseScore users]. So, feel free to add only the MXL file. If you want, you may also upload manually your MSCZ file, adding then a link to it, copied/pasted from one of the links in the edition.
By the way, I must say that all users may use only their nickname to download files, write anything,… until they create a (copyrighted) edition, whatever the copyright is, even a no-copyright one. All people may know who has the rights or has freed the copyright. So, if you agree, let me know what [First name-Name] should be used for editor. Your talk page will ever remain as "mirabilos". Claude T (talk) 17:43, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
I’d rather supply the MSCZ file as well because that’s the original and MusicXML export is… incomplete, I guess. But I can easily add both, I generate them already anyway.
Copyright law specifically permits pseudonymous publications (https://dejure.org/gesetze/UrhG/66.html and §10 as well), and we can even have them added in our ID cards in Europe, so it will remain as this. mirabilos (talk) 17:54, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

I stumbled a bit by adding a descriptor to the Anonymous composer of second title that I submitted - sorry about that.

I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble to fix that, or easier to leave it as is: Anonymous (Medieval Organum, c. 1000-1100)

I should have left it as simply "Anonymous" and put the other notes in the editor remarks.

Psaume 23 by Wytze Oostenbrug

Dear Claude,

Something was going wrong with uploaden de PDF of my new entry titled Psaume 23. I tried to reverse to the version of 24 feb 2024 16:00 (the second loaded). Got however the comment, that that one is exectly the same as the last loaded 24 feb 2024 16:15, which certainly is not the case. For instance, I added my year of birth in the heading. A new upload from the version of 16:00 (the correct one) also failed. Could you try to restore the version of 24 feb 2024 16:00? Thanks in advance. Wytze Oostenbrug

Hi, Wytze. Done ;-) I've just had to click on the second line of the file history table that appears when you click on the white icon just right from the regarding PDF icon.

Hi Claude, That was just what I have done also, but it doesn't work with the version of 16:00, that is really the correct one. That is the second loaded version. Reloading that version gives the error, that it is the same as the current version, which is certainly is not (other size). Perhaps you can remove all loadings after the second (from 24 feb 2024 16:00) or otherwise remove all pdf, so I can add the right one from fresh.Wytzecpdl (talk) 16:27, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
