Buongiorno Orfeo!

The Internet Archive (aka Wayback Machine) has come in slightly handy - early iterations of Nicola's page included MP3 files hosted on a separate site, http://web.infinito.it/utenti/n/n.fiorino/

Old versions of this page are also accessible through http://web.archive.org/ with some overlap of files, from which I deduce the editor's full name is Nicola Fiorino, and sure enough, you can google for this name and find several chamber music performances in which he's played cello.

Anyway, if someone could put him in touch with me, I'd be delighted to discuss obtaining some of his files to host here. My e-mail is phi1ip AT netscape DOT net - the letter L is in fact the number 1. Ciao! --Pml 20:28:47, 2006-05-14 (PDT)

From acole - did my Ockeghem score upload correctly?

TUMS Busking Book

Hi Raf!

I noticed you starting to finish the work I've begun - basically with 26 editions to add at once, and therefore about 52 separate pages to edit, I ran out of energy rather quicker than desired. I did a fair number of them on January 15 and soon after, and will hopefully finish off the rest today.

One other question: when I was adding a bunch of scores the other day (allocating CPDL ID#10735 up to 10763), I unintentionally forgot to comment out the troublesome apostrophe as \', and noticed that the CPDL ID number had incremented despite a failed update to the table. I then had the same problem from putting an overlong piece of text into one field, which took 3 goes before it was acceptable to the server backend. Does this mean there are now gaps in the CPDL table? By my reading there should be a single gap at 10755 and a gap of three from 10760 to 10762; I've inserted the piece by David Ellyard as CPDL ID#10755, and moved CPDL ID#10763 back to CPDL ID# 10760; this leaves me 3 numbers allocated to insert new additions to the compendium of scores.

Regards, Philip

About the icon for Chinese translation

Hello, Mr. administrator. I am the one who attempted to submit a flag icon at Image:Chinese.png for several times. For some reason, the icon that I submitted could not be displayed correctly. Instead, it shows a warning message like this:

Warning: This file may contain malicious code, by executing it your system may be compromised.

I am sure that the icon that I submitted was of the correct format, and should not contain any "malicious code". Do you have any idea how to fix this problem?

The icon that I submitted is primarily used in Chinese translations, as in the page for "Ave Maria". Actually, there exists two writing systems in the Chinese language, namely Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese. Traditional Chinese is used in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan (especially Taiwan), while Simplified Chinese was adopted (or "invented") in mainland China after the Communist Party took over. The Chinese translation in the page for "Ave Maria" is actually in Traditional Chinese. Therefore, I think it would be more appropriate to use an icon that contains the flag of Taiwan, instead of the flag of the Communist China. As freedom of religion has long been oppressed in mainland China, the Chinese translations of most sacred music are in Traditional Chinese. So, it would be useful to make an icon with the flag of Taiwan for Traditional Chinese.

What I just said seems to be very confusing. If you are really confused, you may take a look at the articles Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese in Wikipedia.
