Most people with a role in releasing software understand that user feedback is a critical part of the development process. This post serves as a list of questions that a Business Analyst or Product Manager may pose when a feature seems straightforward to external parties, but might be troublesome to implement.</p> <ul> <li> <p>Would you indicate that a tweet had been edited?</p> <ul> <li>If yes, how?</li> <li>Is there a grace period, like reddit, where tweets that are edited within a certain time period aren't flagged as edited?</li> <li>If yes, how much time do people have to make edits to tweets?</li> </ul> </li> <li> <p>Would you show the revision history of tweets?</p> <ul> <li>If yes, how many times can someone edit a tweet?</li> <li>How many versions are kept in the version history? </li> <li>Are other users allowed to like/retweet previous versions of a tweet?</li> </ul> </li> <li> <p>Regarding likes and retweets: assume User A retweets User B, and User B edits the tweet.</p> <ul> <li>Does it stay in its original version, or does the retweet get updated with the edits? </li> <li>Could users have a setting that instantly un-retweets any tweet they retweeted that was edited? </li> <li>What happens to likes, replies, and quote-tweets?</li> </ul> </li> <li><p>Should the media attached to a tweet (pictures, videos, gifs) be editable?</p></li> <li> <p>If a tweet is reported, then edited, does the reported version of the tweet get reported to Twitter HQ? </p> <ul> <li>Can the user reporting the tweet still see the original tweet that was reported?</li> <li>If a tweet is reported, could it be edited to remove the content that breaks Twitter’s Terms of Service?</li> <li>If revision history is enabled, would the reported tweet show in the history, or only the versions that are not in violation of the Terms of Service?</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>Personally, I find utility in the permanence of Twitter, and I can only hope that this will continue.</p>
