b. 165-168

composition: Op. 50 No. 3, Mazurka in C♯ minor

No L.H. slurs in AI & AF (→FE→EE)

Slurs in GE
..

Just like in b. 157-160, two L.H. slurs are almost certainly an improvement introduced into [AG] (→GE).

() suggested by the editors
..

From b. 158 on we give the dynamic indications of AF – see the note to b. 158-161. Due to this reason, in the main text we suggest , which is compliant with the indications of AF, yet present in GE, in a variant form.

b. 165

composition: Op. 50 No. 3, Mazurka in C♯ minor

..

AI and AF are lacking in the  lowering d to d. The patent inaccuracy was corrected in FE (→EE); it is also GE that features the correct text.

b. 165

composition: Op. 44, Polonaise in F♯ minor

No markings in GE & EE2 (→EE3)

 in FE (→EE1), literal reading

  in FE, possible interpretation
..

The  mark in FE (→EE1) must be a mistake; however, it is unclear whether the pedalling was supposed to be indicated here but was implemented inaccurately or whether the mark was placed here by mistake. If the former were true, the position of the mark would require a correction, and a  would have to be added – Chopin could have meant here a short pedal, like the one in, e.g. b. 204. According to us, it is, however, the latter that is more likely, hence in the main text we follow GE and do not include this mark. A similar solution was also adopted by EE2 (→EE3).
