==== Step 3.3: Inserting the video into an article ==== | ==== Step 3.3: Inserting the video into an article ==== | ||
[ | To insert a video into an article, first you have to choose whether it fits in the text or on a side. | ||
Usually, if the text mentions some steps to take or the video is directly related to a text, it's better to put it there like this: | |||
<nowiki>[[File:mivideo.mp4|gif]]</nowiki> | |||
If you consider it better to be floating on the right side, you can do this | |||
<nowiki>[[File:mivideo.mp4|right|gif]]</nowiki> | |||
Or with a thumb and a label: | |||
<nowiki>[[File:mivideo.mp4|thumb|This video shows this!|gif]]</nowiki> | |||
If you think the video is too small, you can specify a size: | |||
<nowiki>[[File:mivideo.mp4|gif|400px]]</nowiki> | |||
