I guess that this is directed at Eric:

Is there any way of easily keeping track of when new scores are added to a composer's IMSLP Page? I have a feeling that I'm missing something obvious....

hrm. I'll check. There's RSS feeds for checking "newly added pages"/etc. - the site in general, that is, not for a particular composer- and then check it daily using an RSS reader, search for the composer you're looking for, etc. ... - that can often work... if one's familiar with RSS. Does that help nearly enough?...

I generally look at this page, but I don't know how one does it for a specific composer.

Hrm. If there were an RSS feed associated with (say the page is Raff, Joachim...

http://imslp.org/wiki/Special:RecentChangesLinked/Category:Raff,_Joachim

one could find , I think, when things "related" to the Raff category had been added, changed, etc. But there isn't, at the moment, I think- though that would be a lot of RSS feeds, one per category... Maybe we should consider that, still... /

(so one sees, e.g. that recently violin concertos "material" has been added to pages in the Raff category. Similarly one can use the Recent Pages link  to monitor other, including larger, categories/pages mutatis mutandis; it's a Wiki feature. Not sure if that's helpful for what you're asking about right now, but maybe at some point...)

Seems that I wasn't missing something obvious, then.  :)

Thanks Eric & Thal,
