Does Wikipedia allow for the embedding of Youtube videos? It'd be nice to embrace an existing library of video content.
The reverse relationship exists - Google readily displays Wikipedia content for specific searches.
- amelius 5y agoGoogle is acting as a silo, and imho not an example of good stewardship wrt the organization of the world's data.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoI do not see anyone else willing to pony up the money to be a “good steward”. Who wants to take on all the responsibility and liabilities that come with hosting other people’s content? Better solution here would be ipv6 and fiber connections to each home so people do not have to rely on uploading to one company to be able to distribute their video.
- amelius 5y agoYes, something like IPFS should be the future.
- 8bitsrule 5y agoEach WP page has (or can easily have) an 'external links' section on the bottom (that's easy to edit, see any example) with fairly lax rulage. So long as the vid is suited to the article, objections are unlikely.
