Standard practices for partial or testing videos

I am planning to run Espire-1: VR Operative. I have started creating routes for the levels, but I want a good full run of the game before I post here. I am new here and I don't want to cause problems by being rude. I have a few questions:

  1. Should I put single-level videos here? I generally only see single-level runs for racing games.

  2. I have been posting my single-level routing runs on YouTube. Would it be considered bad form to post links here, or to advertise my channel here?

  3. Is there a document or video with guidance for noobs about how to get started? I feel like there are 10,000 things I don't know and nowhere to get the basics.

  1. All sorts of games have ILs, not just racing games. If it’s a brand new game to the site you want to submit, I would advise against submitting an IL with the game submission; I would always go with a full game run.

  2. Posting them to YouTube is good, I would not post them here to the general forums of the site. None of the forums on this site are made for self advertisement so I would advise against that.

  3. There is a pinned post in the Streaming/Recording forum that is an excellent starting point for streaming, I would recommend checking it out.
