<youtube>code</youtube>, where code is the thing after the v= in the youtube video's URL. However, using youtube videos in articles is discouraged, as it messes up the formatting, looks ugly, and looks like you're presenting a video as part of the article, when in fact Uncyclopedia never made the video. It's much easier and neater to just add it as an external link. – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • SU&W) 20:27 May 22, 2008

It is, of course, fully permissible, even laudable, to insert a youtube video if it involves a muppet hippy-caveman and two muppet space-cows singing a catchy tune of some sort. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 20:37, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm having trouble visualizing this muppet hippy-caveman, these muppet space-cows, and this catchy tune of some sort. Perhaps if you had some kind of visual, along with an audio, it would make more sense. - Don Leddy the Crunch (Nyah, see, nyah!) 21:59, May 22

I don't know if I can find a copy of this mysterious video to which you allude, nor do I find myself able to place the tune; one which it should be mentioned in no way spent several years dancing around in my head before I successfully passed it on, in the viral sense, to another "user" at a "wiki" to which I in no way contribute a considerable amount of time. Perhaps the following video is, in fact, it. Perhaps not. Only history will decide. Lastly, and I think you'll agree, most importantly, Mah Nà Mah Nà.

On a briefly serious note, there is a pretty good chance that my school's jazz band will play this song sometime soon. To return to our regularly scheduled silliness, gluttonous rucksacks! - Don Leddy the Crunch (Nyah, see, nyah!) 22:57, May 22

Did you call dibs on the space cow on the left? That's the sweetest part. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 16:14, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Nah, I suck, so I'll be that guy that goes "Question is, what is a mahna mahna?" - Don Leddy the Crunch (Nyah, see, nyah!) 20:45, May 23

Waldorf? If you don't get that part, are you gonna do your Sparkle Motion homage? Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 21:17, 23 May 2008 (UTC)

Well I don't know who this Waldorf guy is. Sounds like a bit of a salad to me. The following footage was however recently recorded in the Poopsmiths Lounge involving Under user and MrN9000. Oh, caution the swearing in this might not be for everyone. That UU is a right C&*t MrN  Fork you! 22:55, May 23
