:: As an example of where being able to link to YouTube videos would be helpful, I'm currently researching ''[[The Faceless Ones (TV story)|The Faceless Ones]]'' heavily and would very much like to be able to cite a few documentaries I found on YouTube in one of my upcoming drafts, but there is currently no way for me to be able to. I see this as comparable to citing an unofficial reference book or fanzine which we do allow.

::: Linking to ''official'' material is clearly acceptable, yes (imo). Linking to unofficial material runs into precisely the issue discussed. And it's a real headache, but it's Fandom ToU. We could, potentially, develop an in-house citation style for youtube reference works and ask spongebob. Or specifically ask spongebob just generically about this issue. But, you know, as the ToU is written it's technically a violation if this stuff isn't actually fair use.
