Would be nice to have a youtube2commons type script on toolserver or
elsewhere. Magnus wrote this nice
script that could
potentially be extended for this cause.

Hi Maarten,
For casual use, I suggest using the PwnYouTube bookmarklet:
http://deturl.com/bookmarklet-to-directly-download-videos-from-youtube.asp
Note that other bookmarklets are currently broken due to recent YouTube
design changes. I don't have experience with YouTube's API, but JavaScript
execution seems to be the way to go.
Sincerely,
George

Hi video people,
Does anyone have any experience with downloading Youtube clips? Maybe
using the Youtube Api? Would be nice to offer an automated tool to
upload a Youtube clip to Commons. For example
http://www.youtube.com/user/whitehouse contains quite some interesting
(public domain) clips like
https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/wiki/File:President_Obama_on…
