Kilian made a comment about about this in the pommel discussion thread and I think it would be a cool idea for the site and help new people onsite rather then surfing them to the wiki

*. Hyperlink a video of each check that you do in weapons check from the rule that it pertains to. It would also give us a couple of minutes to elaborate on each rule.

Right, and very little clutter.

We could also start to utilize the "Video" section of the Belgarth.com site, and post video tutorials there. We could then hyperlink to those videos in that tab from the BoW. This puts all of the tutorials in one collective place to be browsed quickly, and in the BoW to be referenced when the person is on that particular section.

Do they even have to look all that professional? If I am, for example, doing a video for the 1/2" through 2.5" hole rule, I'd rather it be done, at all, then have it look great. A good quality cell phone camera will suffice, as long as the point is well communicated.

Eh, I'm not sure that's a good idea. It doesn't need to be professionally edited, but it needs to be better than "hey, i'm some dude with an iphone in my windy * backyard and this is how you belegarth".

I think the next practice I'll go to I'll try some test videos out.
