How do I make a video gallery? I've found loads more interviews from the Netflix Premiere but I don't know how to make a gallery like you done on the premiere page.
There's no easy way — it's a little bit of a trick, but you have to go into the Source editor to do so:
For sake of example, lets use a video titled OSTRICH. Copy the word OSTRICH from the lightbox, as you do photos:
Find the source code for the gallery and paste the video name — OSTRICH — in as its own line, which will look like this:
<gallery widths="310" spacing="small" position="center">

What's cool is that galleries can have both photos and videos, so if you want you can intermingle them. (Such as on our Winking article.)
I've found five interviews with the cast of Arrested Development from the Netflix Premiere. Ive tried to upload them but they're not 'videos' as in they have to be embedded into the wiki.
It's not a secret! It's a template — and yes, it's a bit tricky. Here's a quick step-by-step:
1. Either choose an already uploaded file you want to use, or upload a new one outside of the editor via the "Add a photo" button in the right rail --->
2. When the photo is uploaded, click to open it in the lightbox.
3. Copy the file name, as seen in this example:
4. Open the editor on the article you want to add the template to.
5. To add the template, make sure your pointer is at the top left most part of the article.
6. Click on the "Appearances" template icon in the right rail, as seen in this example:
7. Paste the file name in the first field. Fill in the rest of the fields and use the preview button to verify your changes.
8. Click the "OK" button. Preview and Save the article if everything looks good!
If you want to test, feel free to do so on your user page. The Help:Templates page might give you some additional guidance.
To view any template (such as NewCharacter), simply go to Template:NewCharacter on the wiki. Then you can copy and paste it over to your wiki, in the Template: namespace.
I just wanted to ask you if I could help you with the Wiki. I am a huge Arrested Development fan and I am alwys trying to keep up to date with Season 4. I'm not asking to be an admin or staff, I would love if I could be apart of this wonderful Wiki.
The work you have done on this wiki is amazing and with Season 4 and Movie coming I know you will be rushed off your feet.
You don't have to ask permission! The wiki is open for everybody to contribute to! Glad to have you on board. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me or on the Forum. :-)
Guess what! I'm doing Com Dev work, and that means leaving nice messages for the most recently active admin of various wiki - like you! so here goes:
Wikia is rolling out a fun new initiative for the holiday season called "Time to Play" where we ask our wikis what page they’re most proud to have represent them.
There will be an official blog going out on Nov. 1 but we wanted to reach out to you early and see if you were interested in participating now.
If you wanted to participate, a "Time to Play" badge would go up on the right rail of the mainpage, that links users to the page that you choose, while the footer will live on that same page that links to hub pages (eg. http://www.wikia.com/Entertainment ) for Time to Play goodies. You can see how the badge looks by clicking here and how the footer will appear by clicking here.
We will feature Arrested Development Wiki on http://www.wikia.com/Wikia in one the three biggest spots that we reserved for "Time to Play" participants on a rotating basis, as well as a feature on the hubs.
Let me know if you have any questions, I hope you decide to participate!
p.s. You just gotta say "sure Sannse!" now
p.p.s How about a Hello Kitty pumpkin?
