User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/We've disabled Featured Video for wiki editors/@comment-5973717-20190608215819

I'm glad this is ending.

I have nothing against video in wikis. I think they definitely have a role here, like to the point that I created an entire tool on the Dev Wiki to make less popular providers usable. I just don't think this was a good way to go about it. The Featured Videos had quality issues and only benefited the most popular wikis, which contributed to the problem of effectively a dual system of a handful of large special wikis and smaller less supported ones.
