Minecraft Wiki:Community videos

The community videos initiative allows videos from outside the wiki to be included on the wiki.

Inclusion

Any YouTube channel may qualify as long as they meet certain requirements.

• Owner of a channel may self-nominate to include their own video on the wiki. We may ask for proof of ownership.
• The community will be able to discuss about the quality of video for this channel and choose whether to qualify it for inclusion. This include some hard limitations:
  • The channel must demonstrate a portfolio of at least 5 high quality videos, each of which includes a good range of information about a specific block, item, entity, game mechanic, etc.
  • Videos must be made in reference to this wiki. Other sources may also be referenced except those which are in direct competition with this wiki.
  • Videos must include appropriate attribution to any wiki pages referenced, either in the video itself or in its description.
  • Videos must turn monetization off. It must not include any paid product placements, sponsorships or endorsements. This does not apply to any videos not included in this initiative.

Competition

Different partner channels should not compete with each other by creating overlapping content.

• Each partner should report their videos which are currently in-production in order to avoid duplicate efforts. Please see #Videos in production for more info.
• In case of any video needing to be updated, it is encouraged to allow their original author to reupload an updated version first.
• The wiki's original video creation project may produce a video with the same topic. In this case, wiki's original video is displayed side by side as the partner's video.

Quality assurance

Every video on the wiki should be coherent, accurate, reliable and up-to-date.

• Videos may or may not be narrated. Synthetic voices must not be used in accordance with MCW:GENAI. Narrated videos should include a fluent voice whose accent has no effect on intelligibility.
• Videos should use the vanilla resource pack and the English language, ideally English (US).
• A video should only be added when its channel and itself are both approved by the community.
• Any channel may request a script review in the Discord channel #Wiki Videos. Community members may check the script for accuracy, style, etc. on a best-effort basis.
• Qualified channels can submit a video on the talk page. A video may be added to the wiki when there is a clear consensus in support.

Misc

• If any video is added to or removed from the wiki, the creator must be notified. In case of removals, a reason should be provided if applicable.
