Add youtube links in overview page?

Description of the desired feature

I was lookint at the presentation section in the overview webpage.
I see that there are screen capture to presentantions. I find myself searching on youtube for those presentations.
Would it be a good idea to add the links in the presentations page directly? or is there any reason not to do that?

Are you willing to help implement and maintain this feature?

Yes

Sounds good. Maybe clicking the image should redirect to the YouTube video?

[Esteban82]

Yes, maybe. But how do the users know that they can access the video by clicking? Will there be a visual clue?

[seisman]

The mouse cursor changes to a hand when hovering over on the image, so I guess it can be taken a visual clue?

FYI, @michaelgrund has opened PR #3977 to address the issue.

Hm. I always get this hand when hovering over one of these images, regardless if there is a "real" link added to the image or not. If there is no link added, clicking on the image just leads to a large version of the image. Maybe we can add the YouTube URLs at the end of the bullet point text, e.g., something like "recording available at xyz".
