Technoblade voice clip embed

I just saw the new voice clip you added——to the "article." From what I understand, its purpose for the article seems——to be something close to the XIV Voice Intro Project. But is there a reason you selected a recording of a Discord voice conversation as the audio file? Curious to learn more; the edit summary didn't give me many hints.

RayDeeUx Yeah, it's kinda like that project. Ideally we would have a recording that is in line with the other audio introductions, but since he passed away we can't produce a freely-licensed clip ourselves. A freely-licensed clip of him speaking may aid the reader like an image would. Since I recorded some games with him, that's what I have and "what I can give away." I don't think we can get an audio clip of him speaking with a fair use argument; there are already two images with them and I've never seen fair use audio files not used for song samples. I could be wrong. And there could be better freely-licensed audio clips out there.
Since you've been an active contributor to his article, what do you think of it? Yay? Nay? SWinxy (talk) 18:39, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
I was originally going to suggest clipping any given YouTube video of his, but given the whole ambiguity around fair use policies on XIV, what's there right now is the next best thing. I'm also in favor of replacing it with a shorter clip *only* if a fair use rationale can be made anytime in the future—similar to a past approach with waiting for a reliable source rationale before including The Daily Iowan as a citation in the article.
TL;DR: Yay, and also welcoming shorter options if it can fall under fair use. Cheers, u|RayDeeUx (contribs | talk page) 20:55, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
