MOD NOTE: TROPES BLANKET-BANNED FROM HAVING VIDEO EXAMPLES:
- Attempted Rape
- Bound and Gagged
- Epileptic Flashing Lights
- Jump Scare
- Nocturnal Emission
- Pooping Where You Shouldn't
- Potty Failure
- Sensory Abuse
- Screamer Prank
It's been discussed a lot at the Video Uploading
thread that a lot of poor videos are slipping through the cracks, and that a clean-up effort is necessary if we are to combat the problem.
Common issues are:
- Videos spoiling major events from a work
- Videos not actually fitting the trope they're attached to
- Videos in which the important part doesn't happen until halfway through, with the length being ultimately pointless
- Videos that use the entire work, breaking copyright; this can be done either with one video showcasing an entire short video, or multiple videos that add up to using the entire work in piecemeal.
- Videos lacking the proper media source, or any media source at all.
- General quality problems, like audio issues or artifacting.
So, we've got our work cut out for us; but this is at least a place to discuss problems and come to solutions.

The They Live in a Castle video on Reactive Continuous Scream is the whole video besides the intro and outro, and Potty Emergency has the whole 3-minute The Loud House pilot short, both of which should be removed, especially the latter due to the length.

Just to clarify, The Loud Noise video in question is "Bathroom Break".

Reject Fairy Princess
The The Producers video for That's All, Folks! doesn't list the media source.

The Noah example for One-Man Army has a Fandango Movieclips watermark.

I think the Angela Anaconda example of Creepy Child would work better if it was the actual clip instead of The Mysterious Mr. Enter taking over it.

The Cinderella 3 video for Exact Words has bad quality.
The Life is Strange video for The Reveal spoils the reveal in its title.

Lemme guess, all and any video examples from Steven Universe: Future are too spoilerly to upload here?

Eh, I'd say all currently released epiodes and anything before The Reveal in "Volleyball" would be okay to upload.

The Ruby Gloom example on Counting Sheep and Animated Outtakes are the entirety of a short each, which isn't kosher.

Same thing for the "RPG Clothes" example of Rainbow Pimp Gear which is the entirety of this short

Done. Paging ~MagnusForce, who submitted both video examples, so they are aware.
The Wander Over Yonder video for Stock Scream has a KissCartoon watermark in the corner.

Eh, I'd say it's no biggie unless it obscures an inappropriately-large amount of area on the screen

The Carole & Tuesday video on Cluster F-Bomb is pretty poor quality, and the subtitles are unnecessary IMO. Also, the Ouran High School Host Club example of From the Mouths of Babes was fine, just a bit longer than it has to be; can you switch it back to approved so I can download and re-upload it spliced? Also, deny the Ear Worm video.

Regarding adult content: do cartoon videos that feature brief flashes of uncensored female toplessness (i.e. Producing Parker and Tuca & Bertie) okay, or no?

The Rugrats video for Eek, a Mouse!! looks like it was recorded from a VHS, complete with really bad screen glitching near the end.

The Persona 4 video for Big Ball of Violence looks like it was recorded off a screen with a camcorder. I made a version of the Gravity Falls video for Villainous Breakdown that just has the important parts. If I upload it, would you approve mine and deny the overly-long current video?

I noticed a ProZD clip was added for Last Lousy Point. I first was going to bring it here because the uploader seems not to have heard of capital letters, but then I realized that by the nature of his videos, the clip submitted would be very likely to consist of a whole video from him. So I watched it, and sure enough, it was.

Then it should be denied.
I uploaded a new version of the Gravity Falls example of Villainous Breakdown, without the excess at the beginning and with the video cropped to the frame. Please approve it and deny the old version.

Indeed it's the entirety of this video
Rainbow Pimp Gear has also an example that's the entirety of this video
Changed to denied.

Please also deny the old version of the Gravity Falls Villainous Breakdown video, and the Blueberry Pie song on Ear Worm since the trope is now In-Universe Examples Only and it's the whole video.

Now that Ear Worm is In-Universe Examples Only, the video is no longer a valid example.
