What's the protocol when the original is dead and the dupe is alive?


Dead videos are given the same dupe protections as live videos. This has been the rule for a couple years now (give or take).

The tricky part is confirming that the dead video is the same footage being that we can't see it.

Let's call out some of the people involved in the originals' discussion to see what they might recall.

This video is being sent to Sift Talk for discussion - discuss requested by thinker247.

I just declared the original one dead. Which it is.

I don't know what happens now, though. They have two days to fix the embed? After which this would be a dupe. Strictly speaking, it isn't a dupe as of this moment.

The other sifter apparently hasn't done anything on the Sift in either one or two years. Do they care if I steal their thunder?

Do I have a moral obligation to fix the embed code on the original, which will gut this one and effectively bury this vid in the archives?

Or is this vid effectively Risen From The Dead and lives again?

Nice religious metaphor, yeah?

Can I ask any more questions in this comment?

I don't know how to dupe a video when the original has been removed by the user, but this is a dupe, nonetheless.

Moving this video to thinker247's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

That must explain your avatar then.

If I was trying to be homophobic I would have called you Mary.

Oh yes there is:

You've got moxie, kid. I like that. You may not like me and want to shoot me in the face too, but if I am to be shot in the face, I want it to be by your hand. And then drop my body from a helicopter. Good enough for dad, good enough for me.
