Option to embed video on another site #23

I'm trying VideoWiki for the first time, and it's very cool! One thing I'm interested in with such videos is to create continually-updated tutorial videos (eg, for how to do specific things on Wikipedia, as part of the training for Wiki Education program participants). Our training modules currently use embedded videos from YouTube, like here: https://dashboard.wikiedu.org/training/students/sandboxes-talk-watchlists/video-watchlists-v2

A really useful feature would be to provide code snippets for the same type of embedding for VideoWiki vids.

Hey Sage :)

(a) You are absolutely right. I have added your feature request at VideoWiki Bug Report Page

Feel free to add suggestions/bug reports to the above page.

(b) Creating "continually-updated tutorial videos" is definitely a big use case for VideoWiki :) You can check out one such tutorial at:

(c) We are working on "Translate Feature" at the moment that allows users to translate a VideoWiki article into other languages. I guess it may be useful in the above-use case also
