Title of the publication

The title of the publication should not be Novi thesauri musici (which is in Genitive case), but rather Novus thesaurus musicus (in the Nominative case).
The title in Latin has Novi thesauri musici, because it is followed by "Liber primus", i.e. Of the Novus thesaurus musicus the first book. Imruska (talk) 2022-04-01

Publication page has been moved, and links changed on other pages (including work pages). — Barry Johnston (talk) 18:14, 1 April 2022 (UTC)
I am uncomfortable with this move. A search on "Novus thesaurus musicus" does not readily lead to the (digitized) sources, all of which seem to use the genitive form of the title. -- Chucktalk Giffen 20:12, 1 April 2022 (UTC)
I understand, and agree that "Novus thesaurus musicus" is not identifiable in most searches. Do we need to bring the page to the title "Novi thesauri musici" and explain the cases in the description? — Barry Johnston (talk) 20:22, 1 April 2022 (UTC)
I would be more comfortable with that approach, Barry. -- Chucktalk Giffen 20:51, 1 April 2022 (UTC)
Changes made as requested. — Barry Johnston (talk) 01:33, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
