Description whispertotheworld 2013-07-17 06:53:56 UTC
To the English Wikipedia, please upload the following video:
* http://www.cdse.edu/multimedia/polygraph_videos/POLYGRAPH_DVD_VER_2_HQ_4x3.wmv
Even though as a WMV it is less than 100 MB, I converted it to OGV and it is over 100 MB. Should I send the converted file to someone? Or will someone convert it and post it?
Even though NSA-produced material is public domain the clip has small portions of copyrighted material from The Simpsons and Meet the Parents, so as a result I want the full version on the English Wikipedia
It would be in use in the "Polygraphing" section on the article about the National Security Agency

Thank you

Mr. Klapper, I read the link. Do you need me to upload the converted file or do you need me to only have the description uploaded?
Comment 3 Andre Klapper 2013-07-18 09:04:13 UTC
If I get it right, the ogv file should be uploaded somewhere.
Comment 4 Tomasz W. Kozlowski 2013-07-18 11:24:02 UTC
I converted the file into WebM at <http://tools.wikimedia.pl/~odder/uploads/Polygraph.webm> but since WMV is a proprietary format, I cannot compare the two; I suggest you do so and if the quality is the same, you upload the 17M WebM version.

Thank you, guys! I uploaded it to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:NSApolygraphvideo.webm
