List of lost online videos
This page is under construction! Well, yeah, a wiki page is always under construction, but this page is really not ready yet. What you see here shouldn't be considered an official ArchiveTeam page with official ArchiveTeam content. Both the content and the style may be under construction or debate. Come back later, or if you have something to add or note, use the talk page or the IRC. |
This is a list of online videos, mainly YouTube videos, that vanished without being available anywhere else (e.g. removed without re-uploaded by someone or crawled/uploaded by/to Archive.org).
If you consider a YouTube video or channel as endangered and potentially deleted soon, use the YouTube archival tool or reach out to our video archivists, both at the IRC channel #YouTubeArchive (on hackint).
Warning signs
- If a channel puts videos on “Unlisted” or if even one video is suddenly unavailable, this could turn into an epidemy quickly, and more videos, if not the entire channel, could suddently be gone.
- If a channel becomes controversial and/or faces harsh criticism, such as “TheBaCorner” in 2016 (listed below), it could quickly lose videos.
Volatile channels
Routine Removers
Channels that routinely delete old videos include:
- Samsung Mobile[IA•Wcite•.today•MemWeb]
- Videos public for 1 year, then private.
- Live broadcasts (i.e. Samsung Galaxy UnPacked) unlisted for 1 year after broadcast, then privated.
- Apple[IA•Wcite•.today•MemWeb]
- All videos private after 1 year.
Endangered
- Items will be added to the list.
List
Note for page editors: Adding videos from every platform, not only YouTube, is encouraged.
