I generally dislike linking to youtube videos because of the "it can be removed any time" thing, which I protested at the One Piece wikia after for a reason for years. They now allow videos on their pages which is a mistake. Wiki pages can exist without even basic images and editors tend to often add them because it looks nice, though I argue we need images at times for reference or to make a page easier to read by breaking up the layout.

I'm just saying this because if the rules changed tomorrow, we could quite happily exist with just the lyrics of the song on their pages. Meaning, any link to any song of any kind is non-essential.

The reason I'm saying this is to put emphasis just on the fact we don't need to link to a version of a song "just because", I'm basically trying to add to the list of reasons for not allowing re-prints as its all classifiable as "non-essential" to a wiki.
