Generalize template for all video sites?

As YouTube is not the only video hosting platform, I figure that this template should have a site option to denote the site the video originated from.

May be tough to implement , but what other video hosting platforms did you have in mind?

Hmm... Maybe a separate template for them?... Can you give examples of links from all sites?

There's no need for a timestamp parameter. The way the template works is by invoking the Module:YouTube citation. The module then checks for any pattern in the URL matching "?t=(some number)". It automatically derives the timestamp from that information
