Template:Tweet/doc

This template should be used for linking to X's, especially in refs. This should be used instead of the interwiki links, as it produces a meaningful link, while still saving space.

Usage
Consider this X link:

The username field accepts any capitalization, although the output capitalization uses a preset styling (which can be set in the template) or all lowercase.

The quote field is simply the contents of the X. Note that because the quote is used as a link, links within the quotation do not function.

The date field is simply the date on which the X was posted. Any format is accepted, though it should generally be in the format of "Month DD, YYYY" (e.g. "February 10, 2013") as per the style guide

Profiles link
If only the username is set, the template produces a simple profile link formatted with the  symbol.


 * Example
 * jeb_


 * Produces

X URL
If both the status ID is set, the template produces a standard URL which can be used in most link parameters.


 * Example
 * jeb_


 * Produces

X quote
If the quote is set, the template produces formatted X quote designed for usage in references. The date will automatically be added after the quote, but can also be optionally set to override. If the X was posted before November 4, 2010, and no date parameter is specified, no date will show at all.


 * Example
 * jeb_
 * jeb_


 * Produces

Short names
The username part accepts several short names for various Mojangsters and other notable X profiles.


 * Example
 * Dinner


 * Produces
