While I'm editing pages, I've discovered a variety of sizes for videos. Most of them are 335px, 370px and 400px.

What I'm trying to say is, we should decide a standard video size. If all videos are different, it makes the wiki look messy to new users. Of all the wikis I've been to, the videos are all the same size.

In my opinion, I choose 370px. I'll tell you why now. You don't have to agree on that, this is a discussion.

370px fits perfectly below templates. Take this page as an example, the video fits beside the template, whereas if it was any larger it would come under the template, leaving a gap between the heading 'Video' which makes it look uncomfortable. So if we choose the 370px size, we can fit the video in narrow pages such as the one shown.

335px is the original size of videos while 400px is a larger one also commonly used.

We'll have a vote on which video size you people prefer. What video size do you prefer? 335px 370px 400px Other

The next thing I have to come to is the position of videos. Should it appear on the left, centre, or right?

In my opinion, I prefer left as it fits with the text on a page, which starts from the left. Unless it is a big page containing lots of information, I reckon left is the best.

What video position do you prefer? Left Centre Right
