Abstract

Here, we note how academics, journals and publishers should no longer refer to the social media platform Twitter as such, rather as X. Relying on Google Scholar, we found 16 examples of papers published in the last months of 2023 - essentially during the transition period between Twitter and X - that used Twitter and X, but in different ways. Unlike that transition period in which the binary Twitter/X could have been used in academic papers, we suggest that papers should no longer refer to Twitter as Twitter, but only as X, except for historical studies about that social media platform, because such use would be factually incorrect.

Twitter 现在应被称为 X:学术界、期刊和出版商需要如何进行命名过渡
在此,我们指出学术界、期刊和出版商不应再将社交媒体平台Twitter称为Twitter,而应称为X。通过谷歌学术搜索(GoogleScholar),我们找到了16篇发表于2023年最后几个月的论文,这些论文基本上都是在Twitter和X之间的过渡时期发表的,但以不同的方式使用了Twitter和X。与学术论文中可以使用Twitter/X二进制的过渡时期不同,我们建议,除了有关该社交媒体平台的历史研究外,论文不应再将Twitter称为Twitter,而只应称为X,因为这种用法实际上是不正确的。
