Help:How To Write in Wiki/Videos

A video is a way to communicate a whole message for which you only need to make one click. That's why it is such an important medium and it is possible to share videos alongside of an article. Or a whole page can be about videos. Here is how you can have them appear on these pages.

Step 1: Upload video
First: upload your file to a site of your choice. Currently supported Video-sites are:
 * Dailymotion
 * Funnyordie
 * Vimeo
 * Youtube

Depending on the site you use, you may need to convert your file into the appropriate format first (e.g. not all sites take .mov-Videos, or your video is currently 3 GB big). The preferred format is often indicated, otherwise take MPEG-4. Play with the Quality parameter to get a balance of size & quality (MPEG: mainly quantizer influences this).

Step 2: Embed video in wikitext
You can now embed the video with the following syntax. Replace youtube with one of dailymotion, funnyordie or vimeo depending on which service you are using. On page:
