On [[Edward (Burkhart M. Schürmann)|this score page]] we have two lyricists who require their dates mentioned on the page. The current arrangement is a little unsatisfactory: would it be possible to have the option to put each composer's dates after their name, instead of at the end of the line? Thanks. --[[User:Bobnotts|Bobnotts]] <small>[[User talk:Bobnotts|'''talk''']]</small> 16:31, 10 February 2010 (UTC) | On [[Edward (Burkhart M.

:Hi Rob, do you really think it necessary to add the lyricist dates in each works page? I believe the ideal would be to create a stub page for each lyricist and add the dates there. Would that be OK with you? —[[User:Carlos|Carlos]] [{{fullurl:User talk:Carlos}} {{mail}}] 14:48, 22 May 2011 (CDT) | |||

Extending this template
Would someone (I'm thinking Chuck or Carlos) be able to extend this template to handle up to 3 individuals? It's rare that this is necessary but it is for O ruddier than the cherry (George Frideric Handel). TIA --Bobnotts talk 03:55, 12 September 2008 (PDT)
- Done! You can check the results on the page you cited. —Carlos

- Many thanks for this, Carlos, and for updating the score page I mentioned. I've just added a link to this on Help:CPDL Templates. --Bobnotts talk 19:23, 12 September 2008 (PDT)
Further development requested
On this score page we have two lyricists who require their dates mentioned on the page. The current arrangement is a little unsatisfactory: would it be possible to have the option to put each composer's dates after their name, instead of at the end of the line?

Dual bug and piping
On this page the text really should read "Lyricist: Johann Gottfried Herder (create page) after Ossian (pseudonym of James Macpherson (1736-1796))". So add to the wishlist:
- "create page" for red-linked dual authors
- piping option for pseudonyms, if not a fantastically complicated template to do it automatically
- optional text in place of "and" or simply a kludge to list page on {{LyricistSettingsList|Ossian|cols=2}}. Is there some CiteLyr like CiteCat? Richard Mix 04:55, 22 May 2011 (CDT)
