Search by video number?

I could have sworn there used to be a way to search for videos by their video number, or to enter URLs directly using the video number. Can one of the admins/mods explain how we can find videos again when all the info we have is the file number (WBW-#######)?

you can try by clicking on a random video in the video section and change the number at the end of the link in your browser.
If the video wasn't removed by report you should find it

Another way is to search the archive using the binary (aka. bisect) method.

I sometimes apply it to photographs. I have even thought about writing a program in go. For the time being, I do searches so infrequently that I haven't yet got together to automate this activity.

I'm not an admin/mod but you can search by video number from a search engine:
