::::(Based on [https://en.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Page%3AThe_English_hymnal_%281906%29.djvu%2F35&type=revision&diff=11775762&oldid=11775281 this]). It's possible to have both the custom-formatted header and this (limited) information, though. [[User:RandomCanadian|RandomCanadian]] ([[User talk:RandomCanadian|talk]]) 21:17, 15 October 2021 (UTC)
::::: I couldn't give a toss about the midi as I never use it. It's the score image itself that is taken and printed. If I need the score of a hymn (or any other piece), then I don't want the Wikimedia fluff around it, I just want the music. Then six months later, when I'm sorting through a pile of printed music, if I don't have at least the tune name, metre, composer and author, then it's useless. These need to be part of the Lilypond score, otherwise we're not producing a hymnal of any practical use to church musicians.

::::::Well there's multiple solutions to that problem (copy-pasting the header and the score image to Word or some other software before printing also allows you to keep the information; and this isn't much different or more complex than just saving the score image...). And having one easily useable template for all the 700-odd hymns (give or take a few, depending on whether you want to count the gregorian examples, since these can't work with Lilypond in safe mode, see for ex. [[Page:The English hymnal (1906).djvu/26]] - not caused by a lilypond error [http://lilybin.com/uog9rw/1 AFAICS]); is certainly quite more useful for both editors in terms of code readability and readers in terms of final output than having to deal with a disabled lilypond feature.
