734457 - [Firefox Flicks] Remove Videos

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Christie Koehler [:ckoehler]]

The following two videos need to be removed due to infringing content:
https://firefoxflicks.mozilla.org/en-US/video/38
https://firefoxflicks.mozilla.org/en-US/video/37

Filing as an IT bug because this is a production server and we're still working on the admin interface. mkelly, can you advise IT on the best way to delete the video?

Best way to delete the video would just be a delete statement:

DELETE FROM videos_video WHERE user_id=37;
DELETE FROM videos_video WHERE user_id=38;

Presumably you meant id instead of user_id... that seems to be the ones that Christie linked to.

Do we not need to do anything about deleting actual content? Just DB metadata?

D'oh, good call.

We don't have to handle deleting the content right now, but we might want to keep around the video shortlinks, so something like this will work better:

UPDATE videos_video SET state='error' WHERE id IN (37, 38);

This will remove the video from the site but keep it in the database.

This did the job.
