YouTube channel

I was thinking publishing Wikipedia information on my YouTube channel hence some may not know this information. I'm not talking about sensitive information, I'm talking about languages and other entertainment articles. I know you have your rights but I just wanted to donate and promote Wikipedia on the internet world.

So, my question is...is it possible to talk about or publish this information on YouTube just for educational purposes only?^[1]

Shortest ever tennis set

What is the shortest tennis set ever played in term of time duration? KobiNew (talk) 15:21, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia really does have an article on everything: Shortest tennis match records. 2603:6081:1C00:1187:D83F:3A7E:4889:BCE0 (talk) 15:42, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have seen that page, but it covers match length records, not sets, unless I am missing something. KobiNew (talk) 17:27, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it says Jack Harper won in 18 minutes, while the Majors record seems to be Tutt over Boundy in 20 minutes. So, depending on what level you're talking about, the shortest set was at most either 9 or 10 minutes (two sets). Clarityfiend (talk) 20:53, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, that's the upper bound for the shortest complete set. You could have two players play one point (an ace even), one gets injured and retires. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:01, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Seinfeld the mailman

Anyone know which song Jerry is whistling in this scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wg2HfrIYnwg ? Thanks 89.172.70.41 (talk) 21:42, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Could it be the title theme of Mayberry R.F.D.? —Tamfang (talk) 00:26, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think so. That's here.[1] I suspect Jerry's (lip-synched) tune was something he invented for the show. It does sound vaguely like "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life." ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 06:34, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It sounds familiar to me, though. I anticipate singing by a small group of female singers, but the music breaks off before that. --Lambiam 17:20, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The tune was written by TV composer Jonathan Wolff who wrote the music for the show. The show's soundtrack is actually being released tomorrow: July 2 Seinfeld Soundtrack. On it will be: "Jerry vs. Newman Chase", "Cable Guy vs. Kramer Chase", "Kramer’s Boombox", "Peterman in Burmese Jungle" and "Jerry the Mailman"; which were all written by Wolff.
