I've flagged this (about 8 hours ago, mind) for uncontroversial deletion per
WP:NOTDICTIONARY. I would have flagged it
CSD-G3/A11, however because there's one source it removes the "unambiguous" part of the CSD guidelines. If someone does remove the PROD tag, I'd appreciate if they would state their reasoning behind it here, then pop me a talkback under a new section (Pre-filled template: {{Talkback|Wikipedia talk:Twitterature|ts=~~~~~}}
) on my talkpage. Thanks. -G.A.WILMBROKE [

Hello, everyone. I am the IS graduate student in University of Pittsburgh. I enrolled the class Social Computing this semester. Right now I wanna to improve the article in order to make the article more sufficient. First of all, I decide to edit the"history" section. In the past 3 or 4years , there were a lot of information about twitterature that should be introduced, The present contents contain only minor information about the development of twitterature.

Hello again, I am a graduate student of Information Science and as a part of Social Computing class, I will improve this article. I noticed that the "Further reading" part has clean up banners. I will try to edit that. Also, this is my second post on this talk page, since the first one was accidentally removed by another user. -- SethSrcho ( talk) 19:43, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

Hello everyone. I am taking the Social Computing Class in University of Pittsburgh. I would like to improve the definition and add more information in the first section (the right below the title). If I use information from external sources not mentioned in the references, I will also add the references. Pittsburgher2015 ( talk) 21:50, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
I think the type section is not structured well. The first type is written as bullet points, the second type is mixed with bullet points and text without bullet points. The last type is only text. I would propose to have a consistent structure to have 1) overview of the type 2) examples for twitterature for the type. What would you guys think of my suggestion?

Hello everyone. I am also taking the Social Computing Class at University of Pittsburgh. I would like to modify "Types" section. From my preliminary investigation, i think it would be better to change main types as "fiction" and "Non-fiction". For the "Fiction" part, we will put "Twitter relays" and "Twitter poetry". "Fan fiction" and "Literary classics" will be categorized into "Fiction" part. The benefit of this reconstruction is user could unerstand easily about "Twitterature" from the point of its content type. Current structure such as "short texts" maybe confusing than a well-structure organization.
Based on the good article criteria on wikipedia, we should add some images to help explaining multiple of concepts Eg. What's the twitterature is? We can add some screen shot of tweets that are relevant to it from twitter. Do you guys agree with me? Evanwt ( talk) 20:15, 3 November 2015 (UTC)

Guys, let's summarize our plan for improving the article.'
I will edit the clean up banners in the "Further reading" section. Also will help editing the Types section in a way that it will cover a broader range of different types of "Twitterature" and examples. I will find good examples to add to this section. Also, I will add any external references that I will use, and if I find any interesting papers or articles about "Twitterature", I will add them to "Further readings" section. -- SethSrcho ( talk) 05:00, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
Hey, guys. I have recongrized intro and content parts.Firstly I add content which are common in all kinds of Twitterature into introduction. Second, I classify Twitterature types based on their literature content which is more clear for readers.Thirdly, I add one specific image for 3 main types of Twitterature and 1 example for introduction part. DABAIJING ( talk) 00:30, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
Hey,guys. I initially decided to add some images and modify the history sections, since DABAIJING have added some images, which is pretty good, so I do not need to add more, and during the process of searching the information about the history, I found some interesting story about twitterature, so I added it for a new section. Evanwt ( talk) 05:05, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
Well , one of the reference items that I posted is duplicated, I do not know how to merge them to just one item, can anyone else help me to solve it ? (reference 19 and 20) ,thanks! Evanwt ( talk) 09:20, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
I add a content about Twitter Fiction Festival into the main part to dispaly those Twitterature fans activities. DABAIJING ( talk) 21:10, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
So, what I did was editing the further reading section, adding title for the articles and deleting the references to non existing Wikipedia pages. Also, in Types section, I added an example for Aphorism. The reference is also added in the references section. SethSrcho ( talk) 23:49, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
You did really good job, thank you. DABAIJING ( talk) 02:12, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
Thank you. I also add the Twitterature: The World’s Greatest Books Retold Through Twitter book to Further reading section, which seems to be a very popular book about twitterature. SethSrcho ( talk) 04:26, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
As my last changes, I referenced "the Association of American Publishers" and "Penguin Random House" to their Wikipedia article pages. SethSrcho ( talk) 04:26, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
Formal request has been received by PK-WIKI to split Twitterature into Twitterature and Weird Twitter again. Rationale given by proposer: The "Weird Twitter" standalone article was merged in 2016, but would by now seem to clearly meet GNG. "Twitterature" is also a bad and mostly unrelated merge destination. Please discuss the page split below. Felix QW ( talk) 20:08, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
