The MLA's "How to cite a tweet" style guide has been taken down; more examples of output needed.

Possibilities:
- Use
<name-alternatives>
for the username, instead of<suffix>
. - Put the text of the tweet in double quotes, as the title.
- Add
<month>
and<day>
for the publication date. - Use the shortened
t.co
URL.

Use PHP's date
function to output the date in a specific format?
