Forum:Changing how to include videos on a page

I would like to start the discussion on IF we should change how we currently include videos on article pages. As of now we have been using the YouTube tags. This works quite well and gives us some options on size and formatting. However, it seems like Wikia is embracing making video links from YouTube or other sources as files. Just one example is this new feature they are going to roll out soon. I also have a feeling that they are going to be embracing the the extra functionality from an information side to introduce even more features that take advantage of have video links into embedded files. This is why I'm going to propose that we switch over to Wikia's add video feature. This will give us just as much control on how the videos are displayed and will actually make it easier for people not familiar with the YouTube tags to fix formatting issues since it is the same syntax as is use for images. Please feel free to discuss now. --Birdman5589 (talk) 01:15, June 13, 2012 (UTC)
