# Lexicanum Approved Source - I agree that the safest quality solution is to limit videos to official GW (or licenced manufacturer) produced [https://www.youtube.com/user/GamesWorkshopWNT/videos videos]. The company has several channels on youtube for their different divisions, and does not take them down ever.
# The majority of their videos are product focussed, so they produce videos for individual SKUs that get covered in the Lexicanum products/publications section, as well as miniatures, and hobby tutorials. The miniature focused videos are useful either in the miniatures section, or individual topic sections, based on the video content. For example, an animated video about a type of Space Marine [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWE9d8_D1as tank], could be useful both on a page about the tank's miniature and on the page about the topic of the tank itself (not the miniature).
# I found a trusted and robust extension for embedding videos from a wide variety of services (including youtube) into mediawikis. The extension is called [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:EmbedVideo EmbedVideo], and is the one used by Gamepedia - so it is reliable and robust.
