User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/Wiki Video Types and How You Can Create Them/@comment-4568327-20170418235248/@comment-25503930-20170419133503

I think users are coming to a wiki because they are looking for specific information or are a fans of a topic and are looking for a community about their fandom. There are many ways to display information and also text is a very classic way, many users prefer to consume videos over text meanwhile. It really depends on the situation, the user's preference and also the type of information. Sometimes a video makes sense and can be very informative and entertaining, sometimes maybe text or a table is more helpful. We think videos can be be valuable to the existing content of an article. While we produce more and more videos we are also evaluating feedback from the community and will find out which videos work best.
