Request
Extracted in full from YIFY torrent page, some include company logos, restoration notes or credits which are not part of the original works (and therefore, copyvio that needs to be cut out). --Mayimbú (talk) 01:12, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have copies I can upload for about half of these (Keaton, Lubitsch, Murnau, Vertov, and maybe The Sheik). I can start on those and then, once that's done, work on trimming the others. Might be a good idea to take another look at Maciste all'inferno though. It isn't {{PD-old-70}}, and I don't think the {{PD-Italy}} claim works the same way for moving images. hinnk (talk) 04:01, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I struck through the ones that are finished. For Our Hospitality specifically, the version I have is slightly different (fewer marks and scratches, but otherwise looks identical to me). Unless @Yann is explicitly okay with overwriting it, I think the best approach would be to upload the new version to a separate page, replace the current file in articles, and then leave downloading, trimming, and reuploading the previous version for another day. hinnk (talk) 01:25, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hinnk: If your version is better, I am fine with overloading. Yann (talk) 06:19, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Adding 14 new files for review, 4 others files are marked for deletion. --Mayimbú (talk) 19:15, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment I think that, while restoration doesn't create a new copyright, it still deserves some credit. But I will edit some of the videos. Yann (talk) 18:23, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Video Game Story Time videos

[edit]

Article(s):

Request
These freely licensed YouTube videos have a large amount of copyrighted video game footage within them. However, the audio is perfectly fine. Is there a way we could upload the audio separately and then delete the video? --(Oinkers42) (talk) 15:52, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request to trim beginning of a video

[edit]
Request
Remove first 1:19 or so of this video.
The beginning has some copyright-protected photos and is an intro that isn't strictly necessary. --—Justin (koavf)TCM 10:09, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request to cut out some video and leave audio for a portion of a file

[edit]
Request
Remove non-free media in the first 2:00
Just trimming the video will interrupt the flow, so it would be best to keep the audio. If that proves too difficult, just chopping the first two minutes would do. Thanks. —Justin (koavf)TCM 18:18, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
