It should be easy to know when you’ve found the official YouTube channel of a creator, artist, brand, or public figure. So in late October, we’re updating what it means for channels to be “Verified” w/ new eligibility criteria & a new look. Details → https://yt.be/help/3QfB pic.twitter.com/JXOvMbkbns
As well as this, the checkmark is universally recognised as being verified as a convention across every major platform. Changing it to something else once again creates confusion, all for no good reason.

As it says in the article, - Their stats show that a tick mark is associated with endorsement. Verification and endorsement of channels should be treated differently, fair enough. - It's up to youtube to determine eligibility for verification. 1/x?

- If a content creator qualified for verification with the old system but not in the new, youtube has all the right to remove their verification. If someone does qualify for verification in the new system but has still had their tick taken away, I hope this gets resolved.
