There seems to be a weird thing going on with the link format. In order to get options like a frame and a caption, it's probably best to use the full URL (<nowiki>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=</nowiki>'''ID'''). If you don't care about the formatting of the video box, you can just use the video '''ID''' in your link.
