User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/Wiki Video Types and How You Can Create Them/@comment-1611013-20170418233053

I have been a member of several wikis over the years, and not once have I encountered a user who was in any way enthusiastic about the types of videos wikia already offers, so I don't understand how you could think that your userbase is legitimately interested in them. In fact, I've had several discussions with other users about videos on wikia, specifically the "Recommended Videos" section that was integrated into the sidebar a few years back, and they were unanimously considered to be annoying and intrusive.

That's not to say that this is a bad idea - though it's being executed horribly - but I doubt it's one that many users are going to be looking forward to.
