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

From that discussion they are keeping the security problem hidden for security reasons! Not accessible to volunteers. Therefore I would say this is unlikely to ever be fixed. Music is not a high priority at Wikipedia as far as I can see.

I don't know if all members of this newsgroup are aware but for many years Wikipedia has supported the <score>...</score> extension to produce scores and midi in displayed pages from Lily source.  However since summer this year scores have been disabled for undisclosed security concerns.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Water_of_Tyne for an example of a disabled score.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help_talk:Score and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#Musical_scores_not_working
for discussions of this problem.

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