This user is an idiot
To be used when accidentally marking a good editor with a vandalism template. The template takes three unnamed implicit parameters:
your name
the name of the person you meant to template (the vandal)
the name of the person you actually (wrongly) templated as a vandal
Example
{{User:Banaticus/This user is an idiot|Banaticus|TheTrueVandal|TheWrongedUser}} creates:
Sorry about that. I was following the Do template the regulars protocol, but I am a knucklehead and templated the wrong person. I meant to template User:TheTrueVandal and accidentally hit the wrong person, in this case, you, TheWrongedUser. I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that Banaticus (me) is an idiot. Thank you.
