Watch Video template
editA prototype template to display a chosen thumbnail for an audio or video file. This allows the user to choose any image as a thumbnail and not be restricted to the frames inside the video. For example, the user may wish to display a logo or explanatory label instead.
- thumbnail image could be empty
- file may be audio only, video only, or audio and video
- can be used to workaround bugzilla:23160 "Theora video thumbnails corrupt"

The above does not quite emulate the layout of the normal embedded media file.
This code:
{{User:84user/Thumbnail
| file =Cal_ifps25fr25_q10.ogv
| image = Calibration-test-white.png
| align = left
}}
displays the following:
Here is some text preceding the thumbnail template.

Starbox ideas
editThis tests ways of adding host galaxy information to star articles. I adapted Starbox fragments from S Doradus in these examples.

Observation data explanation
editMore details here on each field ...
- Constellation means the star grouping within which the star appears.
- Right ascension means the distance on the celestial sphere measured eastwards from the First Point of Aries, counted in hours minutes and seconds ... examples: 05h 18m 14.35s ...
- Declination is ... degrees, minutes of arc and seconds of arc
- Apparent magnitude is ...
- Host galaxy indicates where the star is located, if absent then the Milky Way is meant
