Talk:O Jesulein süß, BWV 493 (Johann Sebastian Bach)

I've corrected the original title in German with the buggy encoding, as the cleanup tag requested, but I'm still keeping it since I found there is a score on CPDL with the original German text, and I feel both should be merged, and point to the two different scores, shouldn't they?

I just removed the cleanup notice thinking that all was well without reading your message, Arthur. Apologies for that. It seems to be general practice that translations of one work should appear on the same page. Having said that, the popular motet by Johannes Eccard, Maria wallt zum Heiligtum also appears in translation (When to the Temple Mary Went) and yet these are two separate pages. This may be because it was deemed that the English version has gained so much popularity that it deserved a page in its own right or that the pages were just never amalgamated. I'll leave someone with more knowledge of gerneral practice on the site to give you a proper reply. -- Bobnotts 15:02, 20 February 2007 (PST)

I could have edited the cleanup tag, but then my note wouldn't have made sense.

I feel it's important to connect different editions of one work together, and this can be made on the Composer page too but the most logical way (and easiest to maintain, I guess) is to have only one Work page with all the different editions; this is one of the points I started to discuss on Category_talk:Composer about Brahms' page. -- Arthur 2007-02-21, 06:25 CET (05:25 UTC)
