This template allows relevant tweets to be easily quoted within articles, with a citation automatically generated using {{cite tweet}}.

Using this template is better than a screen-shot of a tweet because the text is accessible to screen readers.

It is an alternative to standard quotation templates because it displays all relevant information about the tweet (date of posting, user's name, user's handle, etc).

Full blank syntax

{{tweet
|text =        [content of the tweet]
|name =        [user's name as it appears at the top of the tweet]
|username =    [user's @ handle]
|date =        [date of the tweet formatted according to MOS:DATE]
|ID =          [number at the end of the tweet URL]
|replyto =     [optional: username tweet is replying to]
|image =       [optional: image or logo associated with twitter account]
|left =        [optional: any value makes tweet aligned left]
|block =       [optional: any value displays tweet as block (text above and below, doesn't flow around).]
|width =       [optional: custom tweet width]
|reference =   [optional: {{tweet}} automatically creates a reference, but one can be provided to use instead. See 2nd example.]
|lang =        [optional: language code of the tweet if non-English]
|translation = [optional: English translation of tweet if original tweet non-English]
