Description

Labels describing specific sections of videos.

Editor's Note: This is in-progress, and partially based on personal experience/personal style. If you find this link, and anything differs from the official guidelines as-is, the official guidelines take priority.

Specifics

1. Should be timed precisely, just like any other segment. For more information on this, refer to Advice for submitting.
2. Chapters should not include opinions but reflect the content of the video
3. Chapters should not be used in place of closed captions
4. Use the main language of the video.

Outlines / Full Video Chapters (FVC)

Outlines, for the purposes of this thought experiment, are a stretch throughout a given video where 100% of a video is covered in chapter segments. (This is independent of skip/mute segments, as well as Highlights and the future Visual Overlays.) Personally, there's no problem with FVCs, so long as they follow the rules, but they can be quite difficult to do with longer/more in-depth videos, because those tend to require a lot of chapters.

The same rules for chapters apply to FVCs.

• Longer videos, kind of self-explanatory, require a longer outline.
• More in-depth videos require more layers to an outline.

Layers to an outline

Be careful when doing an FVC that you don't break the other rules, especially Rule 3.
