Forum:Videos are Here

As many of you have noticed, there seems to be a new sidebar that main wikia has added of Videos. The very same videos we've voted time and time again to remove from the wiki, but have never been truly deleted. I've heard of some users attempting to contact staff regarding them, but I haven't heard the results of any of those. Plus, I think we need to discuss this issue as a community. So here's a forum and a space to do just that.

Discussion
Personally, I believe in only two options:

1) Talk with staff to have all videos removed, along with any template, special pages, or any other feature involved with them from this wiki for good.

2) If removal is not possible, and wikia chooses to leave the videos and all the assorted features on, we need to suck it up, and put the videos to good use. Put them to use on articles. Because if we have this giant video sidebar, and none of the videos are connected in any way to our own articles, we're just hosting content we aren't even informing people about. To be clear, I don't want to open the floodgates for user-added videos, merely use the ones that staff chooses to add.


 * 1) 2 sounds bad, but honestly, I think begrudgingly adding them to articles is much better than leaving them as a large, completely "unsupported" feature. 20:27, June 13, 2014 (UTC)
