  In a comment, can I post a simple link to a youtube video without embedding the video itself in the comment?

  Yes. You can do both actually. See here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/comments/embeds/

  Hmm. I must be missing something at that link you provided. I’m still only able to embed the youtube video in the comment section. I’d rather just make a link to the video (without the video itself appearing in the comment).

  Never mind … I figured it out!

  I simply replaced the “http” with “www” , resulting in a link rather than an embedded video.
