I find the version with the upbeat _slightly_ misleading.
But more importantly I'd consider the relation with the last measure in
this kind of music. Usually the last measure plus the upbeat make one
whole measure together.
In your case this would strongly indicate using a full measure with a
leading rest.
In addition, if you compare the beginning with m. 6 (of the full-measure
example) I'd say this isn't actually an upbeat but rather a rhythmic
gesture - which also points in the same direction.

Dear all,
I wonder whether a "large" partial measure should be notated as a full
measure (rest+upbeat) or a partial measure. More specifically, it's
the beginning of the following piece:
- version 1, as partial
http://www3.cpdl.org/wiki/images/6/6c/Becker-albert_bleibe-abend-will-es-werden.pdf
- version 2, as full measure
http://www3.cpdl.org/wiki/images/archive/6/6c/20140721085342%21Becker-albert_bleibe-abend-will-es-werden.pdf
It's a time 4/4 { r4 c c c }-style beginning; for time 2/2 { r4 c c c
}, or time 4/4 { r8 c c c c4 c }, I'd prefer a full measure, but here
my intuition is gone. What looks more sound to your eye? Or could
anybody consult a copy of Gould or similar?
Thanks,
Alexander
