Notenschreiber,

"Selections" is not a Tab, but a only a sectional division (level 4) beneath a Tab. Used when you have several odd selections. It's usually employed beneath the "Arrangements and Transcriptions" tab but also encountered beneath others as needed. Thanks,

Where did i use "selections" in a wrong way, i don´t remember ?

Actually you used it as a tab when I mentioned it before on 2/10. That's pretty rare so it might have just been a simple mistake of putting in 3-equal signs instead of 4. The more common mis-understanding of "Selections" is when you employ it for a single item, like the Zelenka ZWV 21 recently. There's only one movement added there (No.12) and there's no need to add a Selections header at all. "Selections" means "more than one". If the uploaded had added movements 3, 4, 5, 11 and 12 those would appear beneath a "Selections" level 4 heading. Level 5 headings are hardly ever used outside the Arrangements and Transcriptions tab, and on the rare occasions they are it's for something like separating all the "original key" numbers in a set of songs from those for "medium voice, or "high voice" (etc.)

There is a project in the Zelenkaforums, to edit several (or even all) parts of ZWV 21 by several authors. I had this in mind, when choosing "selections". BTW, the first edition of M. Kohlhase appeared 1n 1989. (Btreitkopf Urtext). It contains remarks by Kohlhase and a realization of the continuo, so it is not quite clear, if it is public domain in the EU as it is. But i think, one can use the sheet music stuff (without the continuo realization) together with the autograph to make a new edition of the mass, especially in order to provide parts. Would you agree?

If you plan to add additional items under selections, see my latest change on the page for ZWV 21. This way you can insert additional movements above the one added recently and there will be a clear division between the complete score and those of individual movements. As for Kohlhase, the 2005 Motezuma decision means the burden of proof now falls upon Kohlhase and his publishers to ascertain that the work was never once copied and performed elsewhere. I just destroyed any such claim by linking to another partial manuscript located in Berlin. Canada recognizes no such claims for composers who died before 1949 at all - even if the work had never been performed. The USA is ambiguous but the presence of a copy in Berlin argues for a legal publication long before 1989.
