EDIT: I am working with Alexander to try and find different ways to automatically "whitelist" videos. As of 08Jan2023, if your video description contains "World Turtles", you should be fine.

addedDue to a huge increase in illegal claims on videos from "imposters", Alexander Nakarada has had to place his excellent music (a lot of which is used in World Turtles) into a "Smart Content ID system".

EDIT: I am working with Alexander to try and find different ways to automatically "whitelist" videos. As of 08Jan2023, if your video description contains "World Turtles", you should be fine. We're also looking at the possibility of videos tagged with the YouTube "World Turtles" meta-tag to automatically whitelist the video, so that most of this should happen behind the scenes with as little effort as possible.

To all Content Creators,

Due to a huge increase in illegal claims on videos from "imposters", Alexander Nakarada has had to place his excellent music (a lot of which is used in World Turtles) into a "Smart Content ID system". Unfortunately, this may lead to claims from his new system for coverage of World Turtles, which is really unfortunate. There are 2 ways around these claims...

Option A:

Whitelist your channel with Alexander. I'm happy to assist with that, so drop me a comment with your channel link, and I'll arrange with Alexander. This will clear all current and future videos on your channel at once.

Option B:

Videos containing his music has to include at least one of the following in the video description (scanned for by the Smart Content ID system): Music by: Alexander Nakarada, creatorchords.com or World Turtles

Clearing a Claim:

In case you do get a claim, here's a claim release form, which forces immediate rescan and resolution after you've added the attribution: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeMwrUlFH41BYPJrpolAxaHHm9yxpnNo6ZSUBdU3KI94FBNXw/viewform

Thanks for your support. Gideon
