Is it possible to profit from YouTube by sublating non-copyrighted videos?
Yes, you can monetize by translating videos on which you do not have ownership rights on YouTube. But you should follow some guidelines. You should add your voice and shape to the video. You can add subtitles to the video you want to edit by clicking Subtitles from the left menu, then click the video you want to edit. Translated metadata can help increase the reach and findability of the video. But be aware that the videos you translate on YouTube must be available legally and not infringe anyone else's intellectual property rights.
