REMOVED YOUTUBE VIDEO --Anyonomous 19:17, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

So, "soon" means two minutes? I reversed your changes while we review the copyright status. The reason is because we have a LOT of videos from Mike Gravel posted, and we would have to remove all of them. Let's settle the question before taking action, ok?

Also, if you are on the John Edwards staff or YouTube staff, please identify yourself. "Anyomonous" is not a good way to be taken seriously for questions like this. Chadlupkes 19:33, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Please see the appropriate section of our policies and terms of use: "The text of all Wikia sites is freely licensed under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL)." Wikia is not claiming to have licensed the video under the GFDL. Thanks. --Johnq (talk) (Wikia Staff)

The reason we can do this is because section 7 of the GFDL allows for "aggregation with independent works" which is what we're doing when images or other media are displayed alongside GFDL text. Wikipedia does the same by mixing creative commons images with GFDL text even where the 2 licenses are incompatible. Angela (talk) 02:14, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
