NOW, REGISTERED USERS CAN UPLOAD VIDEOS ON WIKIPEDIA

 Wikipedia,

 the world's largest online encyclopedia, has launched a new project enabling registered users to post videos, according to the portal's press service."A new video player has been enabled on Wikipedia and its sister sites, and it comes with the promise of bringing free educational videos to more people, on more devices, in more languages," Wikimedia Foundation said Friday.
