Wikipedia is underway with videos

Currently, only 244 articles of Wikipedia have videos, which is why the site is not well known to them, but the truth is that they are there. The problem is that the old Wikipedia PLAYERS only play Ogg video, which is partly right, because to see all kinds of video and YouTube have hundreds of sites. The important thing here is there are many items that could vastly improve by introducing a video on the subject. And it is for this very reason that the Wiki finally released its HTML5 video player. Exactly, Wikipedia has gone to the great train media .
The site is using the Kaltura HTML5 player and various tools to add videos as content. The software works with the MediaWiki platform in the form of an extension called TimedMediaHandler you can take content from YouTube unlicensed to pass Wikipedia's servers.
Remember that Wikipedia is currently asking for donations to keep running, and as they do a great job and probably using the site frequently, you may want to donate to them some tickets
