IMSLP Forums

Here I am trying to add a few composers/ other people and I have just misspelled the name "Yuri Veselovsky" which should correctly be "Veselovski". Could one of the mods please correct this. Sorry and thank you in advance.

I have just created a category for "Leon Chojecki 1858-1931" and I see that there is already a category for "Lech Chojecki 1858-1931". Which is the correct one? OCLC/WorldCat Identities has him listed as Leon but there is very little information about either version.

AJ

Thank you!

I think I have just spotted another one - there are separate categories for "Helene Nyblom" and "Helena Nyblom".

I just noticed another possible duplicate composer category - there are separate categories for Zachris Topelius and Zacharias Topelius. It seems to me that they are the same person. Could mods please merge?

error of the day:

Josef Herrmann Hillischer (1825-1897) should have just one "r"" in the middle name.

Oh well, at least I've managed to go 3 months between composer misspellings.

AJ

Thank you!

Today's error: Peter Aloys Schultheys should be "Schultheis."

Don't know how I managed to do that, with an article containing the correct spelling in front of me.

oh well...off to find more "red letters" and exterminate them...

Thank you once again.

Latest error: Theodore de Witt - should be "Theodor".

Latest stuff-up:

Composer category "Richard James Beamish" - should be "Richard Joseph Beamish."

Thank you once again to mods.

When it comes to typos, I am the Queen!

I can spot them because I am an expert at making them.

Just glancing through recently uploaded items - noticed that there is a song by Franz Abt entitled "He Gives His Beloved Sheep." As a church choir geek, I thought "hang on...is that really how the Biblical text goes?" According to Google and the King James Bible: " It is vai...

I agree with the concerns expressed so far in this thread. I'm not as articulate as many others, and I don't know much about how the financial side of running IMSLP works, but I would love to know more, even if it's in the simple format of "$X needed to cover costs for this month - $Y already r...

Not sure where to put this, so I've made a new thread. I have just noticed that there are 2 separate composer categories/ pages: Frederic Weatherly and Frederic Edward Weatherly. These appear to have the same birth and death dates and thus I assume they are the same composer. Would it be possible to...

I have just created a composer page for Albert Mayer-Reinach. Unfortunately I spelled it "Meyer-Reinach".

Thank you once again and I hope everyone has a merry Festive Season and a Happy New Year.

I haven't managed to stuff it up for a few months, but I'm back...

"Lionel Seymour Benson" is missing the 'e' in 'Seymour.' I realised as soon as I had clicked on the "submit" button.

Thank you once again.

Latest category name typo: Ranieri "Villanova" should only have the one "l".

Thank you in advance.
