(and to the latter point - maybe a bit ambiguously worded on my part, just meant it as "it's not clear if capitalizing Tweet would mean also capitalizing 'Quote' or just saying 'quote Tweet'", though it's largely moot as I don't think that ''actually'' came up on the Wiki's end and so isn't something that needs addressing.) --{{User:Bleu Ninja/sig}} 04:51, 3 November 2025 (UTC)

		+	== Not capitalizing "Tweet" ==
		+
		+	Hey there! Since you seem to be the most knowledgeable with the Twitter post templates, I have a request {{--}} could you convert capitalized "Tweet" to lowercase "tweet"? This is something I've been chipping away at for a while now (for instance, [[Template:postref]]) but since the templates are so large and interconnected I keep missing implementations of "Tweet" and at this point am afraid of breaking something if I keep poking around.
		+
		+	Although I added this to [[HRWiki:Manual of Style#Capitalization\|the Manual of Style]], I realize this was done pretty under-the-radar (though I'm not sure how expansive a discussion we can have with [[Special:Statistics\|barely ten active editors]], happy to open a discussion there if you disagree with this choice). I mainly have two reasons to push for this:
		+
		+	* Although Twitter branded their "Tweets" with a capital letter, reference and journalistic sources near-universally use "tweets" (see {{w\|Tweet (social media)\|Wikipedia}}, [https://www.vocabulary.com/articles/blogexcerpts/how-tweet-got-in-the-oed/ various dictionaries]).
		+
		+	* It feels inconsistent or lending undue weight to capitalize "Tweets" while not capitalizing "Posts" on other sites (or on "X" post-rebrand). It's also unclear how to capitalize derivatives like "Quote Tweet" (especially when abbreviating to 'quote').
		+
		+	Thanks for your help, and keep on tranglin'! --{{User:Bleu Ninja/sig}} 17:04, 27 October 2025 (UTC)
