@Lydia_Pintscher (See the larger of the excerpts from my proposal on Wikidata:Project chat that Jc86035 included in the task description.) We initially stored population data as individual values on an item, but later began storing it as links to Commons tabular data (properties 1082 and 4179 respectively). We also store isolated mathematical expressions, not full derivations or proofs, as LaTeX snippets, and it would not surprise me if someone came around and proposed a property for links to derivations and proofs hosted on Commons (whether as raw LaTeX or otherwise). It would therefore make sense to initially store as statements musical snippets that fit in the 400-character limit for strings, and then later once a MuseScore extension for MediaWiki comes to fruition (or if Extension:Score is significantly revamped) link to full sheet music on Commons. The specific examples on the property proposal that Jc86035 created should not cause copyright problems, and I personally would not have a problem if we need to restrict such a property's use on items for copyrighted music.
@Jc86035 Regarding the points in your excerpt from the survey back in November/December:
- There is at least one graphical editor of LilyPond music; I am not certain whether this can or should be made into an extension.
- The extension has not been updated in a while, but at least @Ebe123 is around if we have more questions about it.
- SVG output is certainly possible with LilyPond; it requires an extra flag but I am not entirely sure what else may be needed for proper rendering.
- SVG output might solve the resizing and alignment issues, though I am also not entirely sure what else may be needed for this as well.
- Wouldn't the problem of unplayable instruments come down to a need for better soundfonts (either for Fluidsynth or TiMidity++)? It would certainly help to know what soundfonts are used at present.
Also @tstarling who may be able to answer more of the concerns presented in this task.
