Are you Oliver Strnad, or do you have his permission to post his work here? Otherwise, we must delete your submission, as it is not public domain. Thanks-- Snailey Talk to Me Email me 12:31, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
Dear Composer or Copyright Owner,
s a composer or other copyright holder, please take time to carefully review the Creative Commons and licensing policies and guidelines.
For those uploading the first time, please remember choose the menu option "New Composition" when uploading your original works (even if they are scans of manuscripts or printouts), "New Arrangement" when uploading new arrangements, and "New Edition" when uploading new editions of public domain works. As it is normally assumed that composers and arrangers have edited their own work, please leave the "Editor" field empty unless another person has actually edited your work (in which case their name should be inserted). Note also that the English term "Editor" is not the equivalent of the French editeur or Italian editore. "Editor" refers to the person who reviewed and corrected the piece, while the French and Italian words are closer to the English word "publisher". In the "Publisher" field, please use your own full legal name, as making your scores and sound files available for free download on this site constitutes "publication" under the laws of most countries in the world. (Note that this is done automatically when using the standard upload tools).
You should be aware that Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 allows for the unrestricted copying, performance (live and broadcast) and recording of the work (including explicitly commercial use) at no charge, with no compensation or royalties payable to the composer or copyright owner for such commercial exploitation. Note also that the all of the acceptable licenses are considered to be IRREVOCABLE once a file has been uploaded with the lawful copyright owner's authorization.
You are free to change the license after upload to something more suitable. IMSLP as a matter of policy will list files under the most permissive licensing terms. Since licenses and public domain dedications are irrevocable, restrictions cannot be added later, but a more liberal license can be selected. Composers are also encouraged to make use of our new template {{NoPerf}}, which automatically places works into a new category - Unperformed Works. To add this template to your pages, simply copy and paste the little template above (curly brackets and all) into the "First Performance" field of the "General Information" section on all work pages.
Before you upload, remember these key points...
PS: For additional and more detailed explanation, please visit our Composer Portal page.
Hi Giocoso09. The file you attempted to upload to this page today was not actually added, because it had the same filename as the one already on the server - so no new file was uploaded. To submit new versions of a file, I'd recommend going through these steps (it's a bit neater): (a) click on the little IMSLP# underneath the download link (in this case #160428); (b) go from there to 'Upload a new version of this file'; and (c) select a file from your computer and upload using the form that appears. Thanks, KGill talk email 22:22, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
Dear Oliver,
To replace a file with a new version, click on the file number (#111111) and follow the link to "upload a new version of this file". Once this is done, you will see the copyright tag change to u/u/u. It might take a few days for the cache to update before you see the new file in your web browser. Trying to change files by changing the file names is not the way to do anything as it just creates a file-entry error. Thanks, Carolus 03:56, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
Dear Carolus, thank your for the information. I am familiar with music but not that much with IT. Rgs from Cologne
