snipe command isn't mentioning user

Question

I made a snipe command but the only problem is it doesn't mention a user properly. I've been trying to solve this for so long. I also attached a picture of what the snipe looks like. Traceback Error:

Ignoring exception in command snipe: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/core.py", line 85, in wrapped ret = await coro(*args, **kwargs) File "main.py", line 261, in snipe embed = discord.Embed('description = f"<@!{snipe_message_author} deleted {snipe_message_content}') TypeError: init() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/bot.py", line 939, in invoke await ctx.command.invoke(ctx) File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/core.py", line 863, in invoke await injected(*ctx.args, **ctx.kwargs) File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/ext/commands/core.py", line 94, in wrapped raise CommandInvokeError(exc) from exc discord.ext.commands.errors.CommandInvokeError: Command raised an exception: TypeError: init() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

    else:

        embed.set_footer(text=f"Asked by {message.author.name}#{message.author.discriminator}", icon_url=message.author.avatar_url)
        embed.set_author(name= f"<@!{snipe_message_author}>")
        await message.channel.send(embed=embed)
        return

You can't mention users in the author field or the title field, better move it to the description.

embed = discord.Embed(description = f"<@!{snipe_message_author}> deleted `{snipe_message_content}`")

snipe command isn't mentioning user
