All you need to know about embedding and formatting video.

Video Guidelines

 * 1) Make sure the video is necessary.
 * 2) * Videos should never act as a replacement for a well-written article.
 * 3) * Only use a video if a screenshot wouldn't suffice.
 * 4) Provide a text summary of what is in the video.
 * 5) * Remember to indicate what the viewer should be watching for.
 * 6) Upload an audio file if the video simply documents an unused sound effect or music track.
 * 7) If you come across a dead video link, replace or remove it.
 * 8) Ensure that the primary focus of the video is the information in question.
