This template allows easy quoting within articles of tweets from Twitter, and posts from X, as Twitter has been known since 23 July 2023. A citation is automatically generated using {{cite tweet}}. It is more appropriate to use this template than a screenshot of a tweet or post, because the text it contains will be accessible to screen readers.

It is an alternative to standard quotation templates because it displays metadata related to the tweet (date of posting, user's name, user's handle, etc.). For quote tweets, use {{quote tweet}}; alternatively, simply pass the quoted tweet, as a second Tweet template, to the |reference= parameter in this template.

It is possible to include tweets written in another language other than English by adding the language parameter and including the List of ISO 639-1 codes of the language.

{{Tweet
