I was going to try rewriting this desperately-in-need-of-rewriting item, but could think of nothing to say beyond the definition. This this isn't a dictionary ... I'd say kill this baby. - DavidWBrooks 01:24, 3 Jan 2004 (UTC)

just a comment:
The concept of home video could be approached from an ontological perspective as well: "It is unrelenting footage that rolls on and on. It has an aimless determination, a persistence that lives outside the subject matter. You are looking into the mind of home video, It is innocent, it is aimless, it is determined, it is real." [Don Delillo, Underworld, p. 156]
the 'home video business' focus seems to represent only the commercial aspects...

What about "home video" meaning a video made by a person videotaping an event, like the ones on AFV? - EdGl 22:38, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
On Wikipedia, that's considered home movie. There should probably be something on this page linking to it. -- Max 00:19, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

I've moved the long list to list of notable home video companies Pirate Argh!!1! 20:26, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Perhaps you all should hash out an appropriate title, then request a move. Close until a title is agreed upon, otherwise this will continue to sit in an otherwise already swamped backlog Jojhutton ( talk) 21:39, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia's policy on article titles.Question: Do we have an article on the other sense of home video? It doesn't seem to appear in Category:Home video if so. If not then there doesn't seem any pressing need to move this article. Perhaps instead it could be expanded to cover the whole topic.
The other question is, where to move it? Video distribution doesn't seem right to me, that term would cover a lot more than home videos.
All told, I don't think a case has yet been made for a move. Andrewa ( talk) 07:27, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

If I may chip in from the land of
The Queen's English, I do not use to term "movie(s)" (the word is "film(s)"), so I would never say "home movie(s)". Here, they are "home video(s)", and, I suppose, the broad term for commercial VHS, DVD, BD etc. is "video(s)". Hope my insight helps

If it is decided that home movies is the primary topic for "home video", I think this article could be dabbed to " home video (commercial)". This would be pretty clarifying, although I know that dabs shouldn't be used where they aren't needed, as per WP:PRECISION. I don't agree that the plural is better as a title the article about home movies. I think consistency should be favored, and on wikipedia article titles are usually singular.

IP 175.33.97.110 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) has been persistently trying to change the first sentence to include " home media" and " home entertainment" as synonyms, with bolding, as if they were redirects. Those terms are not synonyms for "home video"; they are larger concepts that happen to include "home video" as a subset. And they are no longer redirects to this page, they are DAB pages. So the IP's edits are contrary to WP:LEDE, specifically MOS:FIRST.
I have explained in my edit comments, I have explained on the IP's talk page. In each case the IP again reverted to their preferred version for the first sentence, with no edit summaries, no replies, no explanations or justification.
I attempted a compromise, adding a sentence "It is a type of home media." (Home entertainment is already mentioned at the end of the lede sentence, just without bolding.) Again, the IP reverted the lede sentence to their version, even though it is now redundant, with no edit summary or other interaction.
The IP has made no other contributions.

It's wild to me that this article doesn't mention Blu-Ray or LaserDisc. I won't get to it immediately (clearly citations are a much more direly-needed improvement) but I'm putting this out there now in case anyone wants to get on that before I can. Jupiter Bruzer 08:03, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
