Tweets are usually unacceptable as as sources. Tweets and other self-published material may be acceptable if the conditions specified at WP:SPS or WP:TWITTER are met. For further information, see the Wikipedia:Verifiability policy and the Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources guideline. |
A template for citing tweets posted on Twitter.
Usage
[ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿ]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.

|
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.
To use this template with shortened footnotes (e.g. the {{Sfn}}
template), add |ref=
with {{Harvid}}
in the parameter value, like this:
{{cite tweet | ref = {{harvid|Porck|2017}} | last = Porck | first = Thijs | user = thijsporck | number = 889205416596471811 | date = 23 July 2017 | title = Spotted in Marvel's Doctor Strange: Sutton Hoo Helmet replica! | access-date = 5 December 2017 }}
This reference would be cited as {{sfn|Porck|2017}}
.

Error detection
[ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿ]- 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!}}
- The tweet URL depends on
|user=
and|number=
; if either or both are missing, the URL defaults to https://twitter.com/ - Templates are checked for
|ref=harv
, which is an error. The|ref=
parameter must use{{Harvid}}
in the value. - The template also checks for parameters that are unsupported (e.g. misspellings of parameter names).
- Errors are tracked in ವರ್ಗ:Cite tweet templates with errors
