My final update on this thread:

The video of every session from the WikiCite 2020 Virtual Conference is now up on Commons, 3 days after the event concluded.

Furthermore, each presenter now has their section of the video embedded into their part of the conference program, with matching start time and thumbnail – so viewers can watch immediately:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiCite/2020_Virtual_conference

These videos represent 32 hours of conference, covering 85 individual presentations in 7 languages, covering all sorts of topics relating to open citations and linked bibliographic data. If you were unable to 'attend' any of the sessions during the broadcast, I encourage you to look back over the schedule. Equally, the start-time 'bookmark' of each presentation is included in the caption of each sessions' video on YouTube – if you prefer to watch there. And meanwhile, less than a week since the conference began, ~1300 "unique viewers" have already watched some portion of these sessions on YouTube so far.
