duplicate CPDL numbers

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, Richard Mix (talk) 09:32, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

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. Claude (talk) 11:02, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

Dorico source files

Hi,

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.

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, Tristan, thanks for your contributions to CPDL. I completed the redirect, deleting the old page with three capital letters. Didn't know about Dorico format. But for the XML one, please just "zip" it (or export it directly) into MXL format and it will be accepted (and encouraged) by CPDL. Claude (talk) 17:23, 31 December 2016 (UTC)

Dorico is Steinberg's new score editor (written by the team that wrote Sibelius until Avid got rid of them) - it was only released a few weeks ago.

Can I easily add file formats to the existing entry (how?), or do I need to upload a file separately and then edit the page source manually? Tristanpye (talk) 17:33, 31 December 2016 (UTC)

Speaking of a MXL (zipped XML) file, just click in the left panel, on "import a file" (under "Tools"). Then, on the work page, edit the 'Music files section', add, on the right of your PDF: [[Media:Charles_Wood_-_Full_Fathom_Five.mxl|{{XML}}]]. Thanks, Claude (talk) 17:41, 31 December 2016 (UTC)

Michael Haydn Te Deum

Hi, Michael Haydn wrote several works with this title. I have changed the title of my edition of MH28 to include the MH28 number - but it doesn't show through in the main title. Can you fix? Many thanks Malcolm Crowe (talk) 21:46, 3 January 2017 (UTC)

Done. Claude (talk) 22:01, 3 January 2017 (UTC)
