First impressions

Intimidatingly lengthy, but the form is mostly self-explanatory and I understand this is meant as a link from a nutshell version. One problem that catches my eye is that the labels on Form Add work and the labels in the output are often different!

  • "Title of work" might instead read:

Title: This field is automatically filled if you are adding a new edition of an existing work.

Include enough information to unambiguously identify the work (opus, catalogue number, etc.; see Help:Disambiguation or examples at Category:Disambiguation of works). Use sentence capitalization for incipits; see further Help:Style conventions#Titles of works and pages.

  • Name of Composer (First name Last name)

This field is automatically filled unless you are entering the first work/edition for a new composer, where you will have to delete the pre-defined value and enter the name of the new composer.

Use the exact name that appears on the composer page (Josquin des Prez instead of Despres)

  • Editor/contributor

It will be a great day when this too is automatically filled in for logged in users!

  • Notes about musical composition [on work pages this field is labeled Description:)

General information about the composition. See Edition notes: below
