While there are some videos currently embedded on Wikipedia pages–according to this category, 244 of them–Wikipedia isn't really known as a place where people upload and watch videos. The problem is that Wikipedia's old video player only played Ogg files. Which is fine, because we've got YouTube and other services for that, but there are a lot of articles where creative-commons licensed video could make a huge difference. Which is why it's great that Wikipedia is finally pulling their HTML 5 video player out of beta.
