Dear Naja,
Welcome to the IMSLP! We would like to thank you for contributing.
Please visit our Contributor Portal to learn more about contributing to IMSLP.
The Tutorial provides you a basic introduction to using this site. If you wish to contribute music scores, you will find all the details in the score submission guide. In case you aren't able to find the answer in those pages, you can leave a note on the forums.
Please consider putting the Babel tags on your user page, to tell others which languages you speak. You can also use the Babel system to find users who speak a certain language.
You can communicate with other users by placing a message on their talk page (click on a user's name, and then on Discussion), just like I did on your page. When logging on the next time, this user will get a notification of a new message. Replying to these messages can be done on your own talk page, or on the corresponding user's talk page. Note that there will be no notification for the other user when replying on your own page. It's always a good idea to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~), which automatically adds your user name and a datestamp.
If you want to discuss something with the whole community, you can post a message in the IMSLP forums. For very important messages, please contact the staff directly via the IMSLP staff contact list.
We're looking forward to your next submission!

I guess that's what it said in a prologue that I took it out. But I'm not complete sure now. Do you think it's still copyrighted? Please let me know and we'll ask to delete it. Thanks in advance. NachoBA It could be, I'm not sure right now. As I mentioned, I think there was a preface by someone date 1965. May be it was a reprint and only the preface was added. I will try to find the original file. Take care. NachoBA
Dear Naja, you raise some interesting points that are on my mind for some time. Let me first of all explain the deletions:
If the admin entered a deletion reason, this will show up in the Deletion log on the Recent Additions page. However, the fact that this will not show up in your watchlist is a Mediawiki (the software of this site) problem of which I can't say much except that you could contact Feldmahler about this. I would indeed be a nice feature.
It seems to me that the pages were deleted for the right reasons - you made some mistakes such as copyrighted submissions and duplicate or faulty work page names. However, you are absolutely right that it is demotivating if you are not notified. Please accept our apologies.
I think this miscommunication is the result of a time problem of the admins. We are 7 admins of which only 2 new in the last months. To the contrary, IMSLP is growing exponentially. Besides maintainance tasks, we are confronted with a daily load of verifying +/- 70 submissions that need to be checked to ensure that all IMSLP content is perfectly legal - the only way IMSLP can survive. Many new users upload a batch of files without any information of which a great deal are copyrighted - which generates extra work for us. However, we have put a lot of energy in explaining how to submit and what's public domain. So here grows a little frustration sometimes...
So, again, we apologize for the inconveniences, and thank you for your letting me know your frustration. I will rise a discussion on the forum next week to get a grip on this problem. Maybe there can be new admins. I will also present guidelines for communication to new users (however, we can't inform every user about every correction).
If you have suggestions about our project, please let us know. Do you think the small errors you made were the result of bad information in the guide ot the public domain page? I have the feeling they are not transparent enough.

Hi Peter and Feldmahler,
Thank you for reacting. please don't get me wrong. I thought the pages would have been deleted with reason, it's just that if you don't know, you don't know, innit. That feels very awkward, especially since my time is very much under pressure also. I cannot afford to waste it. Also if you don't know, you have no chance to correct it. To give you a clue, when i first started contributing to musicbrainz.org, a compilation that i had worked on for 2 hours got deleted instead of corrected because it had (cd1) instead of (disc 1). I stopped contributing there for about a year.
Im also not an easy person, since i don't recall ever doing anything good from the very first time. I like computers, because digital media can be corrected... lol. I also manage to dig to a systems smallest corner to make it fail, like uploading files with two single quotes.... sorry. (in fact after reading this over, i must say it still astonishes me that i persist in trying to learn the piano, since music can not be corrected after it is played.)
So, no hard feelings, i really love this project, thats why i posted that, because it has to feel right for me before i can put time and energy in it. I definitely don't mind sharing my experiences as a beginner. What must be said though, is that because of time effeciency, i only had a brief look at the guides. I still plan to read them through later. As for ideas:
going to stop there, it is also possible to add more stuff later...
greets,
thx for all your good work. imslp is a dream site. ;)
