b. 91

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

Wedge in GC

No mark in FE (→EE) & GE1

Dot in GE2

..

The wedge in GC is very clear, so both the omission of the sign in GE1 and the fact of replacing it with a dot in GE2 are surprising.

composition: Op. 24 No. 2, Mazurka in C major

A dot in A (→GEFEEE)

The editors' proposition

..

All the sources have staccato marked here with a dot. As in A Chopin used wedges in all the three neighbouring similar phrases, we consider this single dot to be an inaccuracy of notation.

b. 92-93

composition: Op. 24 No. 4, Mazurka in B♭ minor

Wedges in A

No signs in GE1 or EE

Dots in FE

Dots in GE2 (→GE3)

..

In A, the quavers a flat at the beginning of those bars have wedges;  in GE1 the wedges were omitted. In FEstaccato dots were added instead, which is most probably the result of Chopin's intervention. Dots were also added in GE2 (→GE3). Absence of any signs in EE might mean that some of the changes in FE were introduced after copies had been sent to London as base texts for EE1.

b. 92

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I

Wedge in Atut (→FEEE)

Staccato dot in GE

..

The pronounced wedge written in Atut (→FEEE) was reproduced in GE as a dot, which is a typical revision (inaccuracy?) of these editions.

b. 94

composition: Op. 24 No. 2, Mazurka in C major

A wedge in A

No sign in GE1 (→FEEE)

A dot in GE2 (→GE3)

..

The wedge that can be seen in A above the crotchet on the 2nd beat of the bar was omitted from GE1 (→FEEE). The correction was made in GE2 (→GE3), i.e. a dot was added.
