This template implements {{Cite tweet}}, as {{#invoke:Cite tweet|main}}.

In templates, or in articles which cannot otherwise fit within the WP:PEIS limit, it may be called directly as {{#invoke:Cite tweet||normal arguments for cite tweet}}: i.e. exactly the same as {{Cite tweet}} except for an empty first parameter.

In all normal articles use {{Cite tweet}} instead, per Wikipedia:Template namespace#Modules.
