Uploading a Video
To upload a vide, it is similar to uploading an image:
Add this text to a page:
[[Media:Filename.ext|Text to replace the filename]]<br>
Replace "filename.ext" with the filename of the video you want to upload, where ext is in the set {avi, mpeg}.
Save the page.
Next, you will want to click the link you created and it will take you to the upload page.
Follow the instructions on that page to upload your video.
Next, add this text to the page you want to embed the video in - consider creating a page specifically for your video and linking to that page.
<player>filename.ext|Caption to go below the image</player><br> <pre>
For a complete list of attributes, see the [Extension's MediaWiki Page].
