Let's Play video list page
« on: August 02, 2011, 08:37:27 am »

Hi there,

first of all thank you for working on the amazing wiki :)!

I would like to know what do you think about creating a page listing Let's Play Dwarf Fortress videos/playlists from youtube and other sources. I'm a new player and I love watching those but I was unable to find existing lists on the forums and in the wiki. I hope I'm not blind. I only found video tutorials page.

Is that a good idea? Does it belong to wiki or is it better to have it as a sticky on the forums?

Thanks for the answers and keep up the great work!

I like this idea, they should be divided into tutorial and entertainment sections respectively.

What would be your recommended approach to include on the page?
a) channel links
b) playlist links
c) to link every single let's play video

The option a) is forcing community members to find the DF videos in channels containing possibly a lot more material.
Not all channels have playlists, so option b) cannot be the only solution unless there will be a requirement to have a playlist.
Keeping the page up to date if c) is preffered sounds really difficult unless we want to write down hundreds of link and subscribe every channel and monitor it frequently.

Any ideas?
