The Open Video Alliance - a “coalition of organisations and individuals committed to the idea that the power of moving image should belong to everyone” - has just launched a new online campaign to “bring video to Wikipedia”, the biggest site yet to implement fully open video.

They argue that although Wikipedia is a fantastic source of information, a text article can only convey so much; and that video can “explain, clarify, and engage like nothing else”.

As part of their campaign, run in conjunction with Miro and Mozilla Drumbeat, they’re providing support to both individuals and organisations who wish to contribute to their vision, including easy-to-follow tutorials on how to post a video, along with a number of community-based projects to support collaborative work.
