You can add video to any Physiopedia page as long as it has been uploaded to [hyyp://www.youtube.com YouTube] first.

To add video to a page follow these instructions:

  1. Click on the Edit tab at the top of the page.
  2. The video will nee to be added directly to the wikitext so click on the Wikitext link in the toolbar of the editing box.
  3. Then add the following to the page where you want the video to appear:
  • {{#ev:service|id}} -or-
  • {{#ev:service|id|width}}

Where:

  • service is the name of a video sharing service.
  • id is the id of the video to include
  • width (optional) is the width in pixels of the viewing area (height will be determined automatically)

For example, to include the famous "evolution of dance" YouTube video, you'd enter:

{{#ev:youtube|dMH0bHeiRNg}}

And if you wanted scaled down to a smaller size, you could use:

{{#ev:youtube|dMH0bHeiRNg|100}}

Note: See the Project Homepage for more examples.
