<p>I never heard of a rule that the video must be their debut video? Just a video of them dancing solo (because if the dancer does not have a lot of photo's of them in their gallery they might not recognize which dancer they are if their preview video is a group dance)
</p><p>Personally I am indifferent towards this, I don't really see a difference if it is an old dance or new dance. If the dancer went through a really big change ( they changed their appearance a lot, developed a totally new dance style) then that I agree the video should be of their new look.
</p><p>I think Aoi is probably not the best example to use because he is more of a special case. Most odorite's on this wiki it seems did not start dancing at 13 like Aoi and have already went through puberty (/the most of puberty) so physically they won't be changing signifigantly like he is right now, which means we don't need to be concerned about their face changing a lot that we need to update their preview videos/icons. ( Using Aoi for example, If you are 13 you still are growing and going through puberty and changing so of course your apperance will change a lot, but once you hit about 18 you stop growing, which means that dancer's appearance will not change a lot after that except for maybe their hair).
</p><p>Even if you changing your hair, you face does not change and can still be recognized. If a dancer lets say, dyes their hair a new color every week I really don't think we should have to go back and update their icon to their newest hair color every time its dyed.
</p><p>Out of anything I think we should follow the odorite's wiki rule that if the preview is not linked to their official youtube channel, they should not have a preview at all. We don't really want to encourage reprinting here on the wiki and if that dancer does not wish to have their videos reprinted we really should not link their preview video to a reprinted one. We could just include a message on the page like the odorite wiki saying " This dancer does not have an official youtube channel so a preview video cannot be provided"
</p><p>This does bring up another question though, if a dancer does not have a youtube channel but does a collab with a dancer who does and then that dancer uploads the video of them dancing to their channel, should we link to that dance cover rather than leave the section blank?
