Minecraft official trailer.

This is the documentation page. It should be transcluded into Template:YouTube. See Template:Documentation for more information.
This template should be used to embed YouTube videos.
Usage[edit source]
{{Youtube
| 1 = Video ID
| 2 = Width (defaults to 425)
| 3 = Height (defaults to width ÷ (16÷9) rounded to the nearest integer)
| align = Alignment
| caption = Caption
| nocat = Prevents category to be added
}}
- Using this template on a page categorizes the page into Category:Pages with YouTube videos unless
|nocat=is used.
Parameters[edit source]
This template adds a video that can be embedded on a page directly instead on needing to upload it directly to the wiki.
| Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Video ID | 1 | The video ID that must be added. | String | suggested |
| Video width | 2 | Changes the width of the video. Defaults to 425 | String | optional |
| Video height | 3 | Changes the height of the video. Defaults to width ÷ (16÷9) rounded to the nearest integer | String | optional |
| Video alignment | align | Changes the alignment of the video. | String | optional |
| Video caption | caption | Adds an optional caption for the video. | String | optional |
| Category supressor | nocat | Prevents [[:Category:Pages with YouTube videos]] to be added to a page using this template. | String | optional |
Examples[edit source]
- Default usage
{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA}}
- Custom width
{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA|720}}
- Custom width and height
{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA|560|280}}
- Inline alignment
{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA|align=inline}}
{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA|align=inline}}
- Custom caption
{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA|caption=''Minecraft'' official trailer.}}
- With an image frame
Sometimes it makes sense to put the video in an image frame so that it formats like an image:
{{FakeImage|{{yt|MmB9b5njVbA}}|Minecraft Trailer from 2011|align=right}}
This can unclutter the pages a lot. You also get to add a caption.
