Talk:YouTube Movies

Contested deletion
This article should not be speedy deleted as being about a subject that was invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally and for lack of asserted importance, because... it is a major service at a major website, YouTube.---Sm8900 (talk) 🌍 13:06, 6 June 2021 (UTC)


 * YouTube is clearly offering movies and shows, but I didn't see anything to indicate that they are marketing it as "YouTube Movies". When I search YouTube, the tab was "Movies & Shows".  At this point, I think this is possibly a useful redirect, and we'll see where it goes.-- Mojo Hand (talk) 13:43, 6 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Hello . It’s clear from the sources that YouTube is offering movies.  However, it is not clear (at least to me) that “YouTube Movies” is an actual thing. Specifically, I don’t see any reliable sources, or YouTube itself, identifying or marketing a service called “YouTube Movies”, do you? If not, this page should be redirected.-- Mojo Hand (talk) 16:10, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
 * hi ! thanks for your very reasonable question,. "YouTube Movies" is indeed the official name for that channel. it is clearly displayed on every video for that channel. here are some examples; Galaxy Quest page, The Longest Day page, Mars Attacks page. I hope that is helpful. thanks for your reply! ---Sm8900 (talk) 🌍 19:53, 7 June 2021 (UTC)


 * You are correct that YouTube displays that name on the individual videos. However, the main tab lists the service as "Movies & Shows".  More importantly is whether 3rd party references are using the name, and I am not seeing much usage or coverage of "YouTube Movies" in reliable sources.  Interestingly, this link uses the name "YouTube Movies & Shows", which I think is closer to what YouTube is promoting.  I continue to think a redirect is the best way to go for the time being.-- Mojo Hand (talk) 16:25, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
