Reporting the key signature of a score is not really OR, though. It's a trivial fact verified from a reliable source. If there are absolutely no secondary sources about the piece at all, then of course we can't have an article, but if they exist and simply forget to mention the key signature then there is no real problem reporting it since any editor *can* cross-check it without specialist knowledge (albeit with additional work).
Translating Mozart's comments to Leutgeb based on the original scores of the horn concerti would be OR, though - they are virtually unreadable :-)
