If you received a warning or a community guideline strike on the video that you uploaded to YouTube, sometimes YouTube can make an error by claiming that the video you uploaded violates their community guidelines when in fact it does not so you always have the choice to appeal the alleged violation but whatever you do, do NOT delete the video.
Deleting the video will NOT remove the warning or community guideline strike, what this will do is the warning or community guideline strike will become permanent and you automatically forfeit your choice to appeal the alleged violation.
Separating fact from false information
Fact: If you choose to appeal the alleged violation whether it is a warning or a community guidelines strike and you lose the appeal no more penalties will be issued other than what has already been issued as if you taken no action.
False: If I submit an appeal and while the appeal is pending I can delete the video and the warning or strike is gone.
