IMSLP talk:FAQ
Free public domain sheet music from IMSLP / Petrucci Music Library
I believe that we should gather all the FAQ's from the various pages of IMSLP (like τηε Creative Commons and Performance Restricted licenses, FAQs), and have a larger, more organised FAQ. We can also have short passages on "How to add a file" etc, and then link to the respective page, or like "What is Public Domain?" and have a one-paragraph answer, and then link to the original page for more information. Not all people need to read all of Public Domain, but many people might want to know the mere basics. I can help do this, if it sounds good to the admins :P ~ jujimufu 09:38, 2 September 2007 (EDT)
- Oh it sounds great to admins I'm sure :) At least it does to me. --Feldmahler 10:37, 2 September 2007 (EDT)
- Ok, great, I'll start working on it in a few minutes :P ~ jujimufu 10:54, 2 September 2007 (EDT)
P.S. Also, I believe we should take some ideas from Wikipedia, and answer questions such as "What is IMSLP? Who owns it? How do I change my username? Who wrote article X? Who is responsible for the articles on Wikipedia?" (questions cited directly from some random FAQ pages from here).
- I think some of those IMSLP/project-specific questions are good... for general wiki FAQs, maybe we can just link to the Wikipedia FAQ? :) --Feldmahler 10:37, 2 September 2007 (EDT)
- Yeah, linking to Wikipedia sounds good, only that the Wikipedia FAQ is humongous and can be terrifying to new users (it was even terrifying to me... :P). So maybe we could have a short text explaining how to do things, and link to wikipedia for more information, just like above. ~ jujimufu 10:54, 2 September 2007 (EDT)
- Great :) --Feldmahler 10:59, 2 September 2007 (EDT)

Copyright Codes
Perhaps we should add the meanings of the copyright codes - I found them on the forums, and pasted them to my user page? If not here, could we link to a page that contains the definitions from the codes themselves?--Snailey 22:37, 5 September 2008 (EDT)
removing scores
How does one remove a score ? --MrLopez2681 23:20, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
- It has to be done by one of the admins. You can, however, replace a file with a new one by clicking on the link of the IMSLP index number and following the directions. Carolus 23:25, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
The way to bring it to the attention of the admins is by going to the file's page (click on the IMSLP number), and adding the template {{Delete|Reason}}.-- Snailey Talk to Me Email me 23:34, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
