常见问题
Should I cite the post date or my access date? ▼
Use the date the post was made. Your access date is less relevant unless the post was later deleted.
What if the post is extremely long? ▼
Use only the first 20 words or first complete sentence, whichever is shorter. Use [...] to indicate truncation.
Can I cite retweets or reshares? ▼
Cite the original post and creator, not the account that reposted it. Mention the reposting in your text if relevant.
