ICE List:Embedding media

See the full guideline at ICE List Wiki:Adding videos.

Embedding media on the ICE List — templates for adding video and social posts to incidents, agent pages, and anywhere else. All embeds render client-side.

Uploaded video (recommended)

Most resilient: hosted on the wiki, no third-party tracking, survives takedowns. Upload via Special:Upload (mp4, webm, ogv), then:

{{Video file|Clipname.mp4|Optional caption}}

YouTube

{{YouTube|VIDEO_ID|Optional caption}}

VIDEO_ID is the part after watch?v= or youtu.be/. Uses privacy-enhanced youtube-nocookie.

Vimeo

{{Vimeo|VIDEO_ID|Optional caption}}

X / Twitter, Instagram, Threads

{{Tweet|https://x.com/user/status/123}}
{{Instagram|https://www.instagram.com/p/XXXX/}}
{{Threads|https://www.threads.net/@user/post/XXXX}}

Note: these load the platform's embed script, which shares visitor data with that platform. Prefer uploaded video or a screenshot where you can.
