RFC RFV


Note: although originally published to the mailing list as RFC-348, this is now numbered RFC-349 due to a numbering conflict.

Many artists and labels are publishing videos on sites other than just Youtube. A few examples:

This will create a new AR, User:Kepstin/Video Channel Relationship Type. It will be added as the parent of the existing YouTube Relationship Type, which will continue to apply to Youtube URLs.

[edit] Standardised URLs

The following URLs will be added to Standardised URLs, and tickets will be submitted to add them to the automatically parsed/simplified list:

  • Vimeo: For a user: http://vimeo.com/<userid> or for a channel: http://vimeo.com/channels/<channelid>
  • ニコニコ動画 (Nico Nico Douga): For a “Mylist”: http://www.nicovideo.jp/mylist/<id number> or for a channel: http://ch.nicovideo.jp/channel/ch<id number>
  • Dailymotion: http://www.dailymotion.com/user/<username>
  • Ustream: http://www.ustream.tv/user/<username>
