First Copyright Strike

[Nicekid76]

So after uploading videos on YouTube for nearly 5 years, i managed to just get a copyright strike on my channel... (because I posted a fan trailer for Legend of Korra last year and I really shouldn't have....) I was just wondering if there's any way to undo that strike or is there an amount of time I have to wait until the copyright strike goes away. Also what happens when you have one strike... do I lose any privileges. (oh I just noticed I can't make videos unlisted anymore, but I can still make the private.
-I hope I post this in the right thread.

Oh not that is not good.

I believe you can either dispute the copyright claim or wait 6 months for it to overturn itself.

A copyright strike goes away after 6 months of no copyright violations have occurred, and the only way to remove it is to get the owner to revoke the claim.

Sadly with this kind of thing you're stuck for six months it's only when the strike is false (say, someone did it to spite you, or you have permission to upload it) can you clear it. The only way to get rid of the strike is delete the video.

I believe you can ask the owner to remove the claim if you prove to them you did not intend to make any money off of their work, and that it was purely for entertainment purposes.

I know I had like a heart attack when I saw it in my email... and then they make you take a Copyright Test.....

In all honesty 6months isn't that bad... If you can't do the time, don't do the crime. >.<

Oh! I heard that worked sorry!

Deleting the video doesn't remove the claim unfortunately, but it does give you a better standing with debating to get the claim removed

but how would I debate if it's copyright infringement or is debating just asking for them to take the strike away?
