What are your attribution habits (general or on twitter)? [Some of mine follow]

1. If I come across something via someone's quote tweet, and I want to quote the quoted part, I'll generally quote their quote tweet first then do mine if I don't think I would have come across it otherwise. (It's one of the few times my RT's are not endorsements.)

2. I don't use video-link embedding (as in, your tweet shows the video rather than the original tweet). This one is okay for most people I think. And the original video still gets stat credits and a small text attribution, but it's at my boundary of acceptable so I don't.

3. If I'm quote tweeting someone to riff off their tweet and they have far fewer followers than me, I generally try to quote tweet them first. In my head it's a more direct invitation to check out their stuff.

4. Off twitter, in my personal IPython/Jupyter notes, I hyperlink to sources often but make sure to put it in context with anchor text that is like, "See Gary O's post on this." That may be an academic hangover, but it helps remind months later that it wasn't my idea.

5. If I accidentally tweet something who is stealing content without attribution (science and photo accounts do this), I try to: untweet; block; then post their content — verbatim, including text — but with an @ to the creator (or other citation if not possible).
