Fwd: Help get musical scores onto Wikipedia!

[Jonathan Marmor]

Hi! Would you like to help get musical scores onto Wikipedia?

Basically, as you can see from this abstract https://wikimania2012.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/We_want_scores! , we've wanted for a long time to get musical scores (programmable & editable) onto Wikipedia.  Now it's almost ready!

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Score details the "Score" extension to MediaWiki -- you can see the recent changes at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/q/project:mediawiki/extensions/Score,n,z .

The one major blocker right now regarding Score is making a particular dependency configurable:

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43388

and it sounds like a reasonably easy place for a newbie to get involved, if you are interested.  Getting started: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_contribute

Thanks!
