I think there's some chaos involved. I don't know how YT is set up. But I've worked with database programmers during really busy holidays and sometimes when they run scripts there are some unintended consequences. These wholesale changes seem rushed so there is probably are some inconsistencies we are experiencing. Probably the result of doing a bunch of queries on a mass scale to weed out problem videos. Probably a lot of manual fixes. Undoing some mistakes. Re-running some scripts again, which could explain why videos are being monetized and demonitized and then monetized again. Probably some element of human error. A bunch of over worked weary eyes scrolling through eyeballs of data making snap decisions like "uhmm this looks good enough. 'click'" or a little bit of "whoops".

You might be on to something with this! Your post brought back a memory from back when I was working in consulting. The days right before Thanksgiving, and even more so with Christmas, were extremely stressful as far as hitting deadlines go. With Thanksgiving, folks check out on Wednesday and don't come back to follow up on work until the next week, and for Christmas you're not only dealing with folks leaving for 2 weeks, but also trying to cram everything in before the tax year ends. It wouldn't surprise me one bit of there are some exhausted coders and database managers flying by the seat of their pants to meet some deadline before the holidays hit. It really stinks for the "decent" kids channels, though. :(

Last year, I recall lots of strange algorithm changes happening around this time, so I wonder if these kinds of headaches can now be thought of as an annual end-of-year event to not look forward to...??
 
Yeah it comes at a great time for advertisers wanting cheaper ad rates at the most crucial time of year.

Waiting for fresh stats to roll through to see if it has come into effect yet? Yesterday was normal. Another channel was highest it's ever been.
 
i posted a 10 seconds videos last night and it was removed for inappropriate content even better it's a game wallpaper with texts ....this is really made me angry ..im not bothering to appeal anyways they will mess with it like always they do ...youtube should wake up it's a serious problem for longer videos

I was born in Russia, but we came to Australia when I was 8 in 1980. So I grew up speaking Russian at home and English outside. But since the parents and grandparents have passed away many years ago now, I rarely speak it, maybe once in a blue moon.

We were planning a road trip up the coast from Melbourne to Gold Coast in summer, but that's cancelled now unfortunately with this fiasco. Got to be ready at the computer to roll again as soon as this is all cleared.

Ever thought of switching to a good laptop? I've been running my channel of a MBP the past 3 years almost as I move around constantly. At first I thought I'd be limited but it's turned out to have a tonne of advantages.

Last laptop I had took up 8 hours to render a 5-8 minute video on Premiere Pro, with 2 dedicated table fans trained on it to stop it from overheating!
So I figure I would need a pretty decked out laptop with 2G dedicated graphics card, 32G RAM, latest processor to render videos. These things run into the $3k on ebay. Gotta penny pinch now mate, don't know what the future will bring. Last thing I would want is to run out of savings and go knocking on Centrelink.
