* Using multiple calls will make the videos be side-by-side (the last video should ALWAYS include the <code>br</code> tag to the 3rd parameter):

{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro}}
{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro}}
{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro}}
{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro}}
<div style="clear:left"></div>
{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro|br}}


* ALWAYs add this after calling the template to properly show other elements from the page or when you need one video in each "line":

<pre><div style="clear:left"></div></pre>
{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro|br}}
{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro}}<div style="clear:left"></div>
{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro|br}}
{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro}}<div style="clear:left"></div>
{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro}}
{{YouTube|VqNcksMfAjM|The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker Intro}}

* If you use this template and forget to add the <code>br</code> tag to the 3rd parameter after calling the last video, you'll get something weird, like this topic!
