YouTube video as citation[]

Hi, Zelda Wiki members!

In Breath of the Wild, Calisa will give Link a Fairy Tonic if she sees him attacked by enemies: https://youtu.be/3RU4hyhVwi0?list=PL4vbGURud_Hp-3KGkZsq4VINYzd-EoXcu&t=510

I want to add this to the wiki page about Calisa, and to the article about Fairy Tonic, but I don't know how to include a link to the above YouTube video as a citation. Please assist! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hoothoot15 13 August, 2021

Hello, and welcome to the wiki! To use a website (including YouTube) as a citation, you would use Template:Cite web. You can copy the example from that page and fill in the blanks, keeping in mind that not every field is necessary; there's no quote to cite, and the type of page is nothing out of the ordinary.
All said, the code you'd use for the citation would be: <ref>{{Cite Web|author=MKIceAndFire |published=March 6, 2017 |retrieved=August 13, 2021 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RU4hyhVwi0&t=510s |title=THE LEGEND OF ZELDA Breath Of The Wild Gameplay Walkthrough Part 15 [1080p HD] - No Commentary |site=YouTube}}</ref> Feel free to add that, along with the info, to those pages. I've personally never played Breath of the Wild and wouldn't quite feel comfortable adding it, but I'll check in and make sure it all goes okay.
One final thing: When writing on one of these Talk pages, please remember to finish your message with four tildes (~~~~), which will sign your username and the time/date. Htwretched (talk) 00:59, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
