[change] Usage

This template can be used to respond to (or comment on) requests at Wikipedia:Vandalism in progress. Please do not substitute this template.

Additionally, where there is a parameter of X, Y, or Z, a specific time period may be indicated. For example:

{{VIP|oldwarn|Y}} produces

Stalewarning.svg Old warning. Last warning was issued Y ago.

Proper usage is:

{{VIP|oldwarn|1 month}} produces

Stalewarning.svg Old warning. Last warning was issued 1 month ago.
