b. 310

composition: Op. 49, Fantaisie in F minor

 &  in A (→GE) & EE2

in FE (→EE1)
..

The difference in the position of  between A and FE suggests that this indication did not get into FE on the basis of A (through [FC]), but was added independently to A and to FE or [FC]. It should be noted that each version is an element of an authentic, different concept of performing this theme (already from bar 290), quite consistently differentiated between A and FE.

b. 310

composition: Op. 49, Fantaisie in F minor

Wedge & staccato dot in A

2 dots in GE

No marks in FE (→EE)
..

The staccato marks for the right and the left hands were probably added by Chopin to A later (after [FC] had been finished), like many other indications in this fragment. In GE the wedge over the R.H. chord was considered a carelessly written dot, which is very frequent in the B & H editions.

b. 311-312

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

 in EE & GC (→GE)

Our variant suggestion
..

Both pedalling versions are undoubtedly authentic and here is why we suggest a variant.

b. 311

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III

..

In A (→GE1) naturals are written only before the 1st quaver in the L.H. and the 2nd quaver in the R.H. FE added a  before the 4th quaver in the L.H. (possible Chopin's proofreading), whereas GE2 – both necessary naturals in the L.H. It is only EE that includes the correct text.
