Linking of obvious words

Regarding the last change, do we really need, "upload", "internet" and "website" linked? I would think if you are reading this on wikipedia at the very least internet and website are self evident. Surely it's easier to read if you don't link every single base word?

If no objections I'm going to remove this. Omandias (talk) 08:36, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

I agree with you that it's easier to read with less links. I suggest that we keep "upload" and "video clips" linked since they are the central concepts to this article. Thank you - Etiaetia1020 (talk) 15:55, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
Actually I was going to to remove video clips too, and update the content. Many video hosting sites now take full videos. We're way beyond that days of when YouTube launched and everything was 10m segments and clips. I'll leave upload in, although personally I think it's a bit superfluous, especially if you read the upload entry, which is rather weak. Omandias (talk) 16:14, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
That's right that now many video hosting websites take full videos, not just short clips of video. I think update the content of the article is a good way to go. Thank you. - Etiaetia1020 (talk) 16:33, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
Done. I think that's a lot more update about what really happens these days. -Omandias (talk) 16:44, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
