Extension:YouTube

The YouTube extension allows users to embed YouTube and Google Video movies, Archive.org audio and video, WeGame and Gametrailers video, Tangler forum, and GoGreenTube video.

Originally made by and for Wikia, though Wikia no longer uses this video extension.

Usage
To embed a YouTube video:

foo

where foo is the video ID from the URL. i.e. if the video's URL is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyBSS48E4xI, then the embed code would be  VyBSS48E4xI .

CCz1kmfqL7g

You can change the width and height of the video box

See Wikia's old help page about this extension. It explains further details. Here is a link to the last version of it before it was blanked and redirected to the new video embed tool page on Wikia.
 * Width is controlled with width="xxx", where xxx is the number of pixels. The default is 640 pixels.
 * Height is controlled in the same way with height="xxx". The default is 385 pixels.

Old Wikia help page
See the Wikia help page on April 11, 2018 before it was redirected to the new video embed tool on Wikia.

That Wikia help page is not on Archive.org. So it is copied below in case Wikia deletes the old page altogether. Wikia licenses their material under CC-BY-SA. See Wikia licensing page.
