[edit] Mahler 5th

I'm not sure about including Mahler Symphony 5 in this page, for reasons described under Trivia (but not at all trivial) on that page. Schissel | Sound the Note! 16:27, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Possibly…the comment Mahler himself made sounds (pardon the POV) weird to me, but for that matter, if he didn't want the symphony to even have a key, c# minor should not be mentioned at all in the symphony's article. —  $PЯINGrαgђ  Always loyal! 17:19, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image links

31-May-2007: In 2006/2007, Wikipedia images required both attributes "thumb|250px" to show a caption, as in:

[[Image:MyPhoto.jpg|thumb|250px|right| My picture.]]

By itself, size "250px" ignores the caption "My picture" (confusing many people), which is considered bad form in computer languages (should warn & be corrected rather than ignore). Just remember to include "thumb" (or "frame") for a caption in an image-link.

Image hints in 2007:

  • Limit most images to "thumb|300px" to avoid crowded text-wrapping.
  • A small image followed directly by a big image often chops text.
  • To resize larger than the original ("oversizing"), omit "thumb" (oversized images cannot have captions in 2007, yet).
  • Beware "left|thumb" (for "right|"), because left-side images appear immediately to left of the text.
  • Most images (99.99%) should be quick JPEG for rapid display.
  • Avoid resizing PNG images (2007): might become 10x larger resized.

Overall, omitting "thumb" is the most common problem.

There are many formatting issues in the Wiki software (used worldwide), with a long list of problems to fix, but in the software world, errors often persist, only to be upstaged by a totally radical new software version, rather than just fixing the irritating problems fast. Note that numerous software systems (not just Wiki) have frustrating issues for years. -Wikid77 10:14, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] No More Unnecessary Song Removals

If any of you actually got rid of songs that sound okay to be on the lists, put them back!


[edit] Well-known music in this key

I plan on deleting any unsourced entries from this in a few weeks. (Listening to a piece and trying to figure out the key is not a source, and is also WP:OR.) Torc2 (talk) 08:25, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
