Youtube Links [PLEASE READ GUIDELINES FIRST]

[AzureDark]

In AnimeLyrics.com there's a separate set of admins called Youtube admins who manage the video link submissions for on-site lyrics. These links go to a simple but tedious queue sorted by series, with no thumbnail to even decide from first glance if it is a credible video to be put up or not.

In addition, regular admins could also put these videos up so from now on I am accepting requests to put these videos up but strictly on my terms. Should your opinion of what should be up conflicts mine, please do not post and instead wait for your link to be verified by other Youtube admins after you submit the link in the video link form on the lyric page.

To make a Youtube link submission request, please post the URL of the on-site lyric, along with the unembedded Youtube link (If the forum's code nature insists embedding, put CODE tags around it). You can only put a maximum of three vids per post, and two posts per day.

Unfortunately you can't post up your typical video. Here's my criteria for a lyric's video to be up:-

Anime: The non-credits version, no fansub subtitles, around 1:30 in length opening or ending sequence. I won't accept full-length MADs/AMVs. Non-credits version of sequences often come with anime DVDs as an extra feature. If there's no non-credit version in existence I'll accept a clean (no edits, nothing extra) sequence. Unfortunately I can't accept vids for image songs and insert songs.

Game: The demo movie featuring the short version of the game's theme song. It must be clean with no subtitles. The ones I put up for my own submissions are good examples.

J-pop: The full, unedited PV/music video. This is the easiest of the lot, but there would be some people who subtitle those and I don't want that.

Hints: Search Youtube in the artist's or series' kanji title to find good unedited vids upped by natives. For lyrics that already have videos but you feel you can suggest a better one under the rules above you can also post it here.

If your vid does not meet the requirements above, your post will be deleted. You can perhaps go submit the link via the usual form and wait until they are picked up by a Youtube admin later... but these are the high standards your active admin needs.

For the 5Ds ending theme of Yu-Gi-Oh, [START] (http://www.animelyrics.com/anime/yugioh/start.htm)

I have a Youtube link, however it's not the anime. It's the PV of the artist who performed the theme. Can that be submitted, or does it have to be the anime itself?

[AzureDark]

No, I'll only accept the anime OP sequence.

[Rizuchan]

So will you replace videos that have already been uploaded if I were to submit ones that adhere to your rules? Coincidentally, I have a youtube account full of textless openings as I sort of 'collect' them, and I can think of a lot of songs with videos linked to them that probably aren't the best choice.

[AzureDark]

>_> *ahem*

For lyrics that already have videos but you feel you can suggest a better one under the rules above you can also post it here.

Er but actually... please tell me that account name, I'd do it myself rather than you posting them all slowly...

[Rizuchan]

Ah, sorry. I missed that line.

http://www.youtube.com/user/rfluegel is my youtube account. I still have a lot more to upload, too.

Kimikiss Pure Rouge ED 2 "Wasurenaide"
http://www.animelyrics.com/anime/kim...asurenaide.htm

The youtube is credited, but otherwise should fit your criteria. I don't know if there is a non-credit available, as the DVD's are listed as discontinued on Amazon and I didn't feel like crawling through Amazon JP to check.



Also, before I saw this post I submitted a link the normal way for a full-song link, so I apologize. Is there a way I can cancel that so video admins don't have to bother with it?

[AzureDark]

I'm more bothered that the video admins would prefer the full one more than the ones my guidelines say...

Your vid has CN subtitles... but since I can't find anything better I guess I'll put this one up.

[intrusion]

I saw Japanese in the beginning and assumed the rest of it was too. *smack*. Sorry about that, and making you look.

I also just submitted the full length, I don't know if video admins approved it or not. So they may well prefer your guidelines, but I don't know.

I have a number of videos for character songs up on my account now (currently only for Bleach and Ah! My Goddess but I will continue to put ones up for the different anime songs I have in alphabetical order)

A few in particular
Momoiro no Hana (http://www.animelyrics.com/anime/ble...oironohana.htm)


Hanabira (http://www.animelyrics.com/anime/bleach/hanabira.htm)


Memories in the Rain (http://www.animelyrics.com/anime/ble...oriesinthe.htm)


There are quite a few songs in both the Bleach and Ah! My Goddess sections without videos I have posted on my account but since I'm only allowed to actually post three at a time I provided my account link

[AzureDark]

*cough*

Unfortunately I can't accept vids for image songs and insert songs.

[SakuraFox512]

Oh sorry I just read through again and noticed that ^_^; and since I didn't see it the first time I read I assumed it was like the rest of the animelyrics site (since I've seen videos available for character songs on here)

[AzureDark]

Yea they were put up by someone else and it's kinda annoying since I can't delete them (the vids are already locally stored on the site)...

Thank you.

[AzureDark]

For the Haruhi stuff, should we wait for the DVDs for a creditless ver? Because I saw some for the first season.

[Hanfresco]

Opps..looks like I didn't read this before linking a few lyrics. I'll look for videos that meet your criteria at a later time.

Err.. I don't know how to read the japanese test thingy. That's why I want to request help for upload and romaji translations. Is it possible?

[AzureDark]

We do lyrics requests (just put down what you're requesting on this board) but nothing more than that.

[chizuruMiki]

[AzureDark]

Uh, it's already subbed in the vid...

[Rei]

...Shouldn't we move this to the requests thread? lol

[chizuruMiki]

Oops >< I didn't see the romaji lyrics. Sorry about that!
