Template talk:Externalvideo

Policy
This seems to be a perfect template for linking to music videos on external sites. What is the policy for doing this? Is it acceptable to link to a music video on the artist's official channel on Youtube or on a label's website pr even on Yahoo Music? MahangaTalk 21:54, 17 February 2008 (UTC)


 * According to my understanding, that is permitted as long as the video is legally licensed (which would exclude most of the stuff on YouTube). See WikiProject_Songs, WikiProject_Songs, and Copyrights for more info on this issue. Kaldari (talk) 23:06, 17 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the links, Kaldari. I got it now. :) MahangaTalk 03:59, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
