To add a YouTube video, you need the ID code for the video.  The easiest way to find this is to look at the URL of the YouTube page for the video. The string of letters and numbers after "v=" in the URL is the ID code.  So for the URL: '''<nowiki>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLFDzC_ok8c</nowiki>''', the ID code could be '''DLFDzC_ok8c'''.
