{{Twitter}}

Will Output: <twitterfeed id="276459840" nb="10" sn="no" sd="yes"></twitterfeed>

The second parameter is the ID of the user that you want to display tweets from. To get this ID:

Visit the user's profile on Twitter. For example, we will be grabbing the user ID of @Google.
Right-click on the page, and click "View page source" ("View source" in Internet Explorer). (Also, Ctrl+U in Firefox and Chrome).
Search for (Ctrl+F) ".rss" in the page source
Copy the RSS feed URL. It should look something like: http://twitter.com/favorites/276459840.rss
276459840 is the user ID.

{{Twitter|35421362}}

Will Output: <twitterfeed id="35421362" nb="10" sn="no" sd="yes"></twitterfeed>

By default, the max number of tweets it will grab is 10. If you want more or less, you can specify that in the third parameter.

{{Twitter|35421362|15}}

Will Output: <twitterfeed id="35421362" nb="15" sn="no" sd="yes"></twitterfeed>

{{Twitter
| id = 
| num =
