Title: Missing profile for easy export to wikipedia Status in OpenShot Video Editor: Fix Committed Bug description: --------- This bug report follow answer to question : Is there a profile for easy export to wikipedia ? https://answers.launchpad.net/openshot/+question/132202 --------- OpenShot do not currently have an export profile to easily export to Wikipedia. It would be interesting to have such feature in OpenShot for helping end-user to contribute to the Wikipedia open-video project. In the following recent document: "Video for Wikipedia: Guide to Best Practices" http://openvideoalliance.org/2010/10/video-for-wikipedia-guide-to-best-practices/?l=en It can be read... "In 2010, as as part of a campaign to encourage individual video contribu- tions to the Wikimedia Commons, the Participa- tory Culture Foundation developed and released the Miro Converter, a free, automatic converter which creates Wikimedia-ready files from almost any existing asset with no prior technical knowl- edge necessary. The Wikipedia community has embraced the Converter, and any user who wants to upload open-video formats can do so, again with the push of a button." Here are some hints to help OpenShot team implement such feature in the future, hopefully sooner than later... :) How to publish video on Wikipedia ? http://videoonwikipedia.org/howto.html Proposed guidelines for video http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Videos - limited to 100 MB (no longer than 3-5 minutes) - dimensions of 320x240 - convert the file to the Ogg Theora (.ogv)... webM shall also be supported sometime in the future by wikipedia... - recommend the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike License - upload at: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Upload ?
