Beautifully organized. Should we make a wiki page for categorized videos?

Much appreciated. Sure we can, were you thinking like the Introduction to Vegan YouTube page, or the whole library or somewhere in between?

It'll take a little while to upload all the pictures as files and then link them.

I've been going with 5 channels per category, had a nice time getting waylaid with punk music this morning, so going to create another page on all the vegan musicians and genres, but need someone with an objective eye to narrow it down to a selection of 5 for this

With new to veganism I'm on 7 also; CrashCourse, Unnatural Vegan, ModVegan, James Aspey, Erin Janus, So You’re Dating A Vegan, TED. Do I cut off So You're Dating A Vegan and Ted, or do I cut out CrashCourse and TED leaving SYDAV in because if you go to those channels you're not going to get repeat vegan content?

Names of any channels you think deserve in the top 5 of different categories, please suggest away.

Feel free to chop in, take out on the wiki also, can be consensus again, if there's anyone I really disagree that you've included, I'll just bring it up to discuss here.

Probably something in between. The topical layout and images you had above was just a lot more readable. I think we should focus on concise & with an easy layout for accessing the info.

Okay doke, I'll throw some of the pamphlet I'm building of everything in the library on the wiki (libre office export makes this dead easy), for the future video anyway and you can tell me what you think we can use.

That's great that it's so easy to publish to the wiki too.

Yesh, well I might have overstated easy a little, meant easy time wise, it's still a bit of a learning curve:

---

Instructions for transferring over already made, long, heavily formatted pages to the wiki fast

Copy and Paste page into a LibreOffice word document

Go to File > Export

When saving chose "MediaWiki" file

Open notepad you saved it into, right click > select all > cut

Open Microsoft Office word, use the "Find and replace" function do get rid of all extraneous code > zoom out > drag from top to bottom to select all > cut

Open wiki > search the name of the page you want to create > Click the name hyperlinked in Red > Click "Create" in top right hand corner of page > paste into text box > click "Submit"

Pat yourself on the back aha, 2 minutes on top of edits when you get the hang of it.

Anyways, I'm of the part done variety:

Building on small YouTubers ability to draw people into engaging educational videos and follow up channel content, their journey and how it impacts you, I’m building a resource library to make that content more accessible and maybe even encourage dialogue about what goals we share in common.
