ഫലകം:Cite tweet/doc

A template for citing tweets posted on Twitter.

Usage

Copy a blank version to use. Almost all parameter names are supported only in lower case (some initialisms, such as |isbn= have upper-case aliases like |ISBN=, which are acceptable for use). Use the "|" (pipe) character between each parameter. Unused parameters may be deleted to avoid clutter in the edit window. Some samples on this documentation page may include the current date. If the date is not current, then the page.

Required parameters only, in horizontal format

{{cite tweet |user= |number= |date= |title= }}

Full parameter set in horizontal format

{{cite tweet |author= (or |last= and |first=) |author-link= |user= |number= |date= |title= |script-title= |trans-title= |language= |retweet= |link= |access-date= |archive-url= |archive-date= |dead-url=}}

' When known, the author's real name should be specified in the |author= parameter (or |last= and |first=). If their real name is not known, then the tweet is probably not an acceptable usage of a self-published source.

Examples

{{Cite tweet |user=Pigsonthewing |number=564068436633214977 |date = 7 February 2015 |title=This is an example tweet. Hello, Wikipedians! }}

Error detection

• The parameters |user=, |number=, |date=, and |title= are required. If omitted or left blank, errors will be reported. For example:

  {{Cite tweet|title=I'm an incomplete citation!}}

  "I'm an incomplete citation!" (Tweet) – via Twitter. {{cite web}}: Cite has empty unknown parameter: |dead-url= (help)

• The tweet URL depends on |user= and |number=; if either or both are missing, the URL defaults to https://twitter.com/
• The template also checks for parameters that are unsupported (e.g. misspellings of parameter names).
• Errors are tracked in Category:Cite tweet templates with errors
