I created a new page to upload some Op.7 scans - https://imslp.org/wiki/6_Concertos%2C_Op.7_(Bach%2C_Johann_Christian) - these need to be moved to the existing page which is still protected ( https://imslp.org/wiki/6_Keyboard_Concertos%2C_Op.7_(Bach%2C_Johann_Christian) along with all the other JC B...

Not sure who is charge of deleting things, but there are quite a few things that have been awaiting deletion for a while (a good proportion of it cleaning up after Messerman)

Am I wrong to be annoyed about a certain hornpipe enthusiast's arrangement submissions with bizarrely random attributions and duplicates?

Looks like it's time for another tagging marathon to deal with the current backlog (over 3,200 untagged pages). A large number of these pages (e.g. the dreaded hornpipes) have been left over a year now (mostly due to erroneous or insufficient information on the part of the uploader)

I just did a brief check - it seems to be most of the Collection pages for JC Bach. https://imslp.org/wiki/6_Quartets%2C_Op.8_(Bach%2C_Johann_Christian) , https://imslp.org/wiki/6_Quartets_(Bach%2C_Johann_Christian) , https://imslp.org/wiki/6_Canzonettas%2C_Op.6_(Bach%2C_Johann_Christian) , https://...

It seems most if not all workpages for Johann Christian Bach are protected, meaning I cannot upload anything or make edits. Am I really the only one who has this issue? I have brought it up for individual pages before and it's quite maddening. There is another type of page protection that allows reg...

Pages with names beginning with the Icelandic "thorn" letter - Þ - are annoyingly alphabetised among B, rather than Th (or as a separate letter after Z). Any ideas how to correct this?

ah, so delete the orphan files. right. (note to self - read the above more thoroughly). <br> how do I do that? the orphan files are #674558 #674559 #674560 #674564 #674565 https://imslp.org/wiki/File:PMLP845291-phalese_cantionum_sacrarum_1_1554_S.pdf https://imslp.org/wiki/File:PMLP845291-phalese_ca...

It's done it for the second time. Fatal: Internal error - copyright history for id 674558 not found.

I just had the same thing happen - so I just delete and re-upload?

Anyone else experiencing problems downloading PDFs from Gallica? Normally it's just a click, but the last couple of days it's just been waiting for ages before an error page appears. I've tried clearing the cache, different browsers, changing the language (that has helped a similar problem in the pa...

I realise it ought to be Female Composers, since we wouldn't say "men composers". Not sure that can be changed now.

Huh. I dunno. Composers of indeterminate gender.
Hm. I guess there are a few trans composers too. It's otherwise assumed that a composer is male.

I'll gladly do some!

nope, still there. I've tried logging in & out, and in a couple of other browsers, but the notice keeps coming up when I go to upload a file.
