Thanks Federico & Andrew.  @Andrew, music is a high priority with some 
WP editors, the problem lies with WikiMedia which is the software WP is 
built on.  In passing, I see that non-WP users of score have not been 
informed.  See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T257066#6297061

Does anyone here have any input? Is there a known problem within LP 
that is causing WP problems?  Can we help WP at all?
