Yes, a lot of people watch videos online. That doesn't mean people want to watch videos on wikia. I think it's telling that 50% of respondents haven't watch videos on wikia. Did the survey 'ask people whether they wanted to watch videos on wikia? How many of the 50% who haven't watched videos on wikia have said they would like to?

Videos are what youtube is for. I've read a few youtube comments over the years, and they're not the sort of people I would want as wikia editors.

The main point of wikia is that anyone can edit. Text is easy to edit, videos are not. "Anyone" cannot edit a video, there's no "edit" button next to embedded videos. (Although I would heartily welcome a wikia-embedded video editor - most videos people add are terrible and need to be trimmed and cropped.)

A lot of people also watch porn online. Does that mean wikia is going to try to force porn as a vital part of the wikia experience?
