* For any given article, if you would like to embed a video, go to YouTube.com and search for the appropriate video. Make sure the whole content is inline with the main article. Then, on the right side of the youtube video page, you will see the URL for embedding the video, copy it to you clipboard.

* '''youtube''' - the YouTube id number of the video

We can add features like, video of the day, on the main page and add gospel song videos and other videos to the content pages on WikiChristian. YouTube has a huge collection of Worship, Sermon and other Christian Videos and our goal is to combine the power of wikiChristian's content with Videos.
