Wikimedia Commons already accepts sound and video uploads. Pratyeka (talk) 00:41, 5 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

  • I think it still be short length, is not enough. (Nisetpdajsankha (talk) 15:25, 6 February 2017 (UTC))Reply
    • It sounds like @Nisetpdajsankha: wants to develop a local program to facilitate the collection and upload of these kinds of videos. Do you have a particular audience in mind? Lobbying local governments to change laws and uploading the media to Commons are two very different projects? Would it make sense to refine this proposal into one part of that project? For example, I could imagine you working with local Wikimedians to help the regional/local government implement a policy that allows orphan works of a certain age to be uploaded. Or, their might be a really good opportunity to create a local outreach program, where folks bring their old videos to a library with video digitization tools, to upload them to commons. Both would work, but require vastly different resources and approach. Astinson (WMF) (talk) 15:57, 6 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
