Thank you for the further explanation, Ali.

Taking an example I know (because I was involved in the subtitling), "Pompeii: Burried Alive":

https://amara.org/en/videos/0p0B0ceB1VdU/info/pompeii-buried-alive/ was create by Dwi Rianto using the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-nifgJUTlg URL, and he, Esther Premkumar and  Istarted making subtitles. Then the YouTube video got deleted, so it no longer worked in the Amara page. 

Later on I found another version of the video in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3jijsPvp04. So we added this second URL to the Amara page and made it primary. As there was a difference in timing, we fixed the existintle subtitles, and other people di more subtitles.

Now this second YouTube page has ALSO been deleted, but the subtitles remain: they could be downloaded and used on a desktop (or another online) copy of the video. Or downloaded as TXT if you just want to read the content.

Does that answer your question?

Best,

Claude
