What exactly makes Mozart (software) non-notable? Maybe for someone who doesn't work with musical notation it is - there aren't so many scorewriting programs around and this one deserves an article more than some others listed here. If the article needs improvement, insert another, fitting template. I'm removing the Prod one. Rosier 12:24, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Instumental solos

Can the user omit the top stave and then compose instumental solos? Musicwriter (talk) 05:06, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

(although not appropriate for a Wikipedia talk page:) I'm not quite sure I understand the question. The user can put as many or as few staves on the page as necessary. There are some illustrations and a fully functional evaluation version at the program's web page. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 07:18, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20070708103319/http://jazzfile.free.fr/NorMusic%20Fonts%20MOZART%20Examples.htm to http://jazzfile.free.fr/NorMusic%20Fonts%20MOZART%20Examples.htm

I've removed the links to NorMusic as it isn't clear that the latest version of Mozart works with these fonts. Dave Webber (talk) 10:32, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please DON'T delete this file! It is the screen shot of Mozart 14, which replaces the previous one which was a screenshot of Mozart 10 - a much older version. Dave Webber (talk) 10:33, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dave! As the file is stored at Wikimedia Commons, you have to argue your case at Commons:Commons:Deletion requests/File:Mozart14.jpg. Alternatively, it can be uploaded to the English Wikipedia with a similar fair use rationale (WP:FUR) as can be seen at File:Mozart (software) logo.png. Those rationales are not accepted at Commons – they need an OTRS ticket to verify that you release the screenshot under a free license; see Commons:OTRS. Regards, Michael Bednarek (talk) 12:30, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Michael, in that case I'm confused. I tried to upload it on my Mozart page and the system refused, but directed me to go to the Commons area. I'm happy to upload it however Wikipedia prefers, as long as it lets me! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dave Webber (talk • contribs) 12:44, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

One method of uploading to the English Wikipedia is at Special:Upload. The licensing to select is "Software screenshot" and then add Template:Non-free use rationale software screenshot to it after uploading it. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 13:03, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Some proposed changes

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Mozart the music processor. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Information to be added or removed: I'd like to remove the "Multiple issues" box.

Explanation of issue: I recently found that the Mozart the music processor page was out of date and inaccurate. Completely unaware of the 'request edit' and 'COI' procedures, I just made the appropriate changes, even though I am the author of the program the article is about. My apologies. However, I was aware that Wikepedia does not allow adverts, and was therefore keen to do it in a neutral way. With this aim I first studied pages about similar programs - in particular Sibelius (scorewriter), Finale (software), and MuseScore - and made sure I didn't do anything to the Mozart the music processor page that wasn't a direct parallel of material on one or more of those pages. I'm still confident that Mozart the music processor is not worded as an advertisement (I just want a neutral, accurate reflection of the program with a little bit of history), and I have now declared an interest with the appropriate templates here and at User_talk:Dave_Webber. I hope, therefore, that the removal of the 'multiple issues' box can be approved.

References supporting change: The Sibelius (scorewriter), Finale (software), and MuseScore pages, as noted above, are very similar in spirit and tone.
