Usage

To use this template:

1) If you have a YouTube account but do not want to share your username or channel URL there, simply paste the following code into your userpage:

{{User YouTube Account}}

2) If you have your own YouTube channel with an old-style URL of the form

http://youtube.com/user/your_username

and want to share it so others can subscribe to it, then paste the following code:

{{User YouTube Account|write your YouTube username here}}

3) If, on the other hand, you created your YouTube account sometime after 2009 and got instead a new-style channel URL of the form

http://youtube.com/channel/a_24-character-long_alphanumeric_hash_code

then paste the following code instead:

{{User YouTube Account|your full username|your YouTube channel's alphanum hashcode}}

Example

If your YouTube channel has the following old-style URL:

[http://youtube.com/user/Pokemon]

then your username is Pokemon; copy it and paste it into your template:

{{User YouTube Account|Pokemon}}

resulting in the following usertag:

If, on the other hand, your YouTube channel has the following new-style URL:

[http://youtube.com/channel/UCFctpiB_Hnlk3ejWfHqSm6Q]

then your alphanumeric hash code is UCFctpiB_Hnlk3ejWfHqSm6Q; copy it and paste it into your template:

{{User YouTube Account|The Official Pokémon YouTube channel|UCFctpiB_Hnlk3ejWfHqSm6Q}}

resulting in the following usertag:
