Probably so.
I could offer to do dental work free of charge. I'm sure you would agree that I mean well.
Lots of good intentions can't compensate for my lack of competence in dentistry.
So recognizing my limitations, I don't do dental work on anyone.
Your spelling, grammar, and punctuation skills are so poor that it is hard to think of you as someone who is actually competent to give much advice on those areas.
Why would you represent the transcript as matching the video clip without even bothering to check its accuracy?
I reckon you could have given proper credit to the author of the transcript rather than presenting it as your own work.
I appreciate that you are trying (but I think you do not know what you are doing).
