Video Contributions
Thanks for your video contributions to the Wiki, but they need some context with them. Creating new pages with just a video and the default layout is unacceptable. Please add text to pages like The Keep Depths, Level 1, and The Keep Depths, Level 2 to give them more meaning. Nebiksrazu (talk) 17:48, April 4, 2014 (UTC)


 * Ditto. Overall, the videos have little to no place on the wiki. They are fan-made material, and should not be used as the basis of articles.--Hawki (talk) 21:01, April 4, 2014 (UTC)


 * I repeat myself, video links are not constructive edits by themselves. The bosses have to have internal articles created. Only then is it worth hosting a video, if at all, and even then it's dubious due to them effectively being fan-created content.--Hawki (talk) 07:41, April 5, 2014 (UTC)

I know Hawki has already said this, but I will also reiterate it. We have a policy against external fansite links. While official videos produced by Blizzard might be linked to as a source, fan videos on YouTube are basically the same thing as linking to fansites. You may embed videos into articles if they are both relevant and productive to the subject, but just hiding links to them within an article's text is not acceptable. I'm sure you are proud of your videos, but the Diablo Wiki (with the exception of your user page) should not be used as your billboard to advertise them. ◄► Tephra ◄► 08:00, April 5, 2014 (UTC)
