Issues : Omission of current key accidentals

b. 30

composition: Op. 2, Variations, complete

g3 repeated in AsI, contextual interpretation

g3 tied in A (→GE→FE,EE,FESB)
..

According to the editors, the lack of a tie to g3 in #ApI may just be Chopin's oversight (the missing before this crotchet is definitely an error).

b. 31

composition: Op. 28 No. 21, Prelude in B♭ major

..

In A (→FE,FC→GE1) there is no  lowering a2 to a2. The accidental was added in EE and GE2. In addition, EE1 overlooked the  lowering g2 to g2, which was corrected in EE2.

b. 31-63

composition: Op. 30 No. 2, Mazurka in B minor

..

In FE there is no  raising e1 to e1 in bars 31 and 63. The oversight, probably by Chopin in [A], was corrected in EE.

b. 32

composition: WN 55, Waltz in F minor

..

In AO, Chopin did not write a natural raising d to d, which is obvious in the harmonic context of this bar; we add it in our version.

b. 32

composition: Op. 26 No 2, Polonaise in E♭ minor

..

Accidentals in A are to be found only before the first chord and a2-a3 on 5th quaver in R.H. All the necessary signs were added already in FE1, and repeated in the remaining editions (except for GE1 which overlooked  next to a3).
