User blog:Taritsukii/Videos of audio missing?

SUMMARY: (I might do this more often because I tend to run my mouth hahahahah)
 * Should we remove video files that no longer exist from pages that contain them?


 * How does sourcing media from unofficial sources work?


 * Should 'Lantis' have a page on the wiki as a company associated with Free?

Hi everyone it's me again with another question,

I was just looking at the Lantis youtube channel and browsing for new songs to listen to, though I eventually ended up listening to OLDCODEX. (btw side question, should Lantis have a page on our wiki too?). Then I remembered that Lantis posts a lot or previews/PV of free songs since the songs are under their label and wondered if I should add those videos to the wiki. Turns out I was already beaten to it like 6 years ago hahaha, so I just decided to scroll through our video library, until something caught my attention.

I noticed that a lot of audio/music files in the past were uploaded by Celestetwit from websites such as youtube and dailymotion (which actually sparks another question as well, are we allowed to take videos from unofficial sources?), however, many, if not all, have missing/non-existent links or have been deleted from their respective websites (for example). So I was thinking, should we get rid of them? Well, I mean, the files don't necessarily have to be deleted altogether, but if they don't serve any purpose in the state that they are in, shouldn't they be removed from any pages they appear on?

I realise this is really only a minor thing to worry about and that removing them will only clear up a few bytes but it's just something I came across and wondered a bit about.
