I already started uploading around 15 of them, not reading the ToS beforehand. :/
I used the script youtube2mediawiki.py so I am not sure I technically have 'downloaded' the files, at least they have never been on my computer.

Oh I can do it, and I know how to do so technically. I'm just pointing out by the letter of YouTube's TOS it's not permitted. :)

Thanks for the extensive explanation, and as someone who's helped with Wikimania video in the past, I absolutely feel your pain and commend you for doing what you have so far.
Downloading from YouTube violates their TOS, though you'll notice people do it all the time.
I've uploaded thousands of YouTube videos to http://archive.org, I can do these too with no problem.Nemo
