Previously, the template was updated by DefconBot (via {{User:DefconBot/defcon}}), VoxelBot, and EnterpriseyBot. However, if the bots are down, human editors are required to update the template.

IMPORTANT: Before updating this template, please check its revision history to see if the pages have been updated recently. If the bots are running properly, please do not edit this template; bots are more efficient than humans.

Instructions for manually updating the template when the bot is not running

• Note: You must be confirmed (automatically or manually) to do this.
• Note: This must be done in the source editor.

To manually edit the template:

1. Go to User:EnterpriseyBot/defcon.

Instructions for manually updating the template when the bot is giving inaccurate stats

• Note: If the bot is giving inaccurate stats, go to the operator's talk page and report the inaccuracies first before updating manually.

To manually edit the template, change the |level, |sign, and |info parameters to |level = {{WikiDefcon/levels|REVERT PER MINUTE}} |sign = ~~~~~ |info = REVERT PER MINUTE stats according to [[User:YOUR USERNAME|YOUR USERNAME]]. The revert per minute stats can come from either Huggle or Enterprisey's tool. Please don't touch the other parameters because it will affect how the template is displayed.

For instance:

• |level = {{WikiDefcon/levels| 5 }} means 5 reverts per minute
• |level = {{WikiDefcon/levels| 10 }} means 10 reverts per minute

Adopted in the 1950's and until recently flown at US Coast Guard stations etc. Admittedly US-centric. Also, the double flags would be flown on one pole, but that made the graphic too tall...

A tabbed version. It includes everything, but is meant to be compact... will probably improve visual appearance later. There is also an option, "type" (for lack of better parameter name in actual code), default at 100%, that determines the width of the template. It can be anything like 100% or 300px, but keeping the width above 40% or 250px should make the tabs be proportional on computer monitors with lower display resolution. Above, it's at 50%, with a center align. Gracenotes^T § 20:03, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

I added a strict type.

PorkchopGMX’s template

{{Vandalism information|style=hurricane}}

Category 3 (Level 3)
Status message	Featured hurricane
Moderate to high level of vandalism 17:52, 8 November 2025 (UTC) 5.82 RPM according to DeadbeefBot [view • purge • update]	Larry near peak intensity in 2021.

This template is based off the wikitables for each category at Saffir–Simpson scale. The category and actual level are switched because higher vandalism types are considered to be more intense. The nautical version by Herostratus above can be used as an alternative to this. PorkchopGMX 13:07, 9 October 2018 (UTC)
