lumbrius,
thank you for your nice contribution.
You need someone else to proofread (or ~listen). To me it sounds as if there are at least five faulty notes:

bar 7, 3rd beat, last triplet (d instead of eb)
bar 8, 2nd beat, last triplet (a instead of g)
bar 13, 2nd beat, bass line, last triplet (a instead of g)
bar 18, 1st beat, first triplet (f# instead of f)
bar 19, 3rd beat, bass note (g instead of f)

I have not seen the original source of that piece, but these places seem to be wrong - just by listening to them.

Another thing: if you want your score to look professional, you should adjust the bar numbering.
The upbeat does not count as a bar and should be 0.
The first complete bar is bar number 1.
After the repeat sign, make sure, it is the same bar number as the upbeat before the repeat sign.

I hope you don’t mind me pointing this out.

The bar numbering is correct.
Well, up to bar 8 at least, as you correctly pointed out:
The bar after the :|| is the remainder of bar 8 and should not get counted, marking as irregular takes care of that

Nice!

But are you sure about ....

...the G natural quaver in the bass line of bar 13, an A natural sounds more in tune and....

...the F natural dotted crotchet in the Bass line of bar 19, a G natural sounds more likely...

...and the F natural quaver in bar 18 of the the treble stave sounds as though it ought to be F#

I don't have access to the score so I am relying on my ears, so please accept my apologies if I'm wrong.

Yours

Norman Hart
