Talk:List of online video platforms

message: online video platform, video hosting service, list of video hosting services, and comparison of video hosting services should all be merged into one page, namely online video platform. See the discussion. Rburriel (talk) 18:17, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

:As the big "Attention editors!" warning says, the list (like many other stand-alone lists on Wikipedia) is limited to entries that have their own articles.—J. M. (talk) 12:15, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

text: Because this site is not about spirit of collaborative process. That was years ago. The entire Wikipedia is run by an ever shrinking and tight knit group of power hungry admins who control everything often leading to WP:WAR. In 2018 there were only 500 users to edited all Wikipedia in all languages. Maybe it was long time ago but is not an encyclopedia everyone can edit anymore.
Odysee has a nicely detailed subsection in its parent LBRY#Content_and_users. Why couldn't we just link to this section? Why would we need to refactor this section to its own article just for it to be included on this list? It has grown a lot since last year: "As of April 2021, Odysee hosted 10 million videos" -bkil (talk) 11:15, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

text: If it deserves its own article, write it. Things are not permanent and if something becomes significant enough, it can have its own article.—J. M. (talk) 12:10, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

message: The pornography section includes sites like Chaturbate and LiveJasmin but these are sites that stream live cams, rather than traditional video hosting. Should the be included? --ZimZalaBim talk 15:34, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The first sentence of the article says "Video hosting services are platforms which allow users to upload, share videos or live stream their own videos to the Internet". So the live streaming services meet the definition, even though I agree that calling them "video hosting services" looks a bit odd.—J. M. (talk) 16:32, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, maybe worth putting them in a section dedicated to streaming? --ZimZalaBim talk 16:45, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I think they should either be in a separate section, or the tables could include additional column(s). The article could be renamed, too (the Video hosting services link in the first sentence actually leads to Online video platform, which is more generic).—J. M. (talk) 16:50, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  List of online video platforms would be an improvement. --ZimZalaBim talk 17:06, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

message: I might be missing something, but why is TikTok not on the list of video platforms? Does classifying it as a social network mean it is not also an online video platform? It seems to match the description provided in the intro: "Online video platforms allow users to upload, share videos or live stream their own videos to the Internet. These can either be for the general public to watch, or particular users on a shared network."
I plan on adding it to the list. Should it be added under "Specifically dedicated video hosting websites" or "Larger websites which allow the hosting of videos"? Samfriedmann (talk) 15:54, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
