This template should be used to embed YouTube videos.
Usage[]
{{Youtube | 1 = Video ID | 2 = Dimensions | align = Alignment | caption = Caption | nocat = Prevents category to be added }}
- Using this template on a page categorizes the page into Category:Pages with videos unless
|nocat=
is used.
Parameters[]
This template adds a video that can be embedded on a page directly instead on needing to upload it directly to the wiki.
Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Video ID | 1 | The video ID that must be added. | String | suggested |
Video dimensions | 2 | Changes the dimensions of the video. | String | optional |

Video caption | caption | Adds an optional caption for the video. | String | optional |
Category supressor | nocat | Prevents [[:Category:Pages with videos]] to be added to a page using this template. | String | optional |
Examples[]
- Default usage
{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA}}
- Custom width
{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA|720}}
- Inline alignment
{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA|align=inline}} {{yt|MmB9b5njVbA|align=inline}}
- Custom caption
{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA|caption=''Minecraft'' official trailer.|nocat=y}}
With an image frame[]
Sometimes it makes sense to put the video in an image frame so that it formats like an image:
{{FakeImage|{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA|nocat=y}}|Minecraft Trailer from 2011|align=right}}
This can unclutter the pages a lot. You also get to add a caption.
