Module:Cite tweet
 | This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature form and is thought to be relatively bug-free and ready for use wherever appropriate. It is ready to mention on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users to learn. To reduce server load and bad output, it should be improved by sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing. |
Usage
changeThis template implements {{Cite tweet}}, as {{#invoke:Cite tweet|main}}.
In templates, or in articles which cannot otherwise fit within the WP:PEIS limit, it may be called directly as {{#invoke:Cite tweet||normal arguments for cite tweet}}: i.e. exactly the same as {{Cite tweet}} except for an empty first parameter.
In all normal articles use {{Cite tweet}} instead, per Wikipedia:Template namespace#Modules.
