Usage
This template is used to track permanently dead YouTube videos—meaning videos that are dead and no archive of them exists on the known YouTube archive sites on en:Wikipedia (https://ghostarchive.org and https://archive.org).
The idea of this category is that a similar video replacement can be found to replace the dead link. YouTube is full of reuploads, and there are other video sites too, so replacing a dead YouTube reference should be easier than most.
