Official embed verification workflow

Well supported

The Atlas's internal rule for media: before a video or audio link is embedded rather than merely referenced, the upload must be verified as the official channel of the rights holder — a label, estate or the artist's own account — and the rights state set accordingly. Random re-uploads stay discovery_only.

Official uploads are discovery, not metadata proof

Official video/audio uploads help users discover recordings, but upload dates and descriptions should not replace release-discography research.

Version control matters

Live videos, remasters, lyric videos, visualizers and provided-to-YouTube audio can represent different versions.
