{{change2|old|new|years=|dec=2|color=yes|sort=yes}}

where:

old = the required nonzero real number representing the base value
new = the required real number representing the object value
years = the optional real number of years from the base value to the object value
dec = integer number of decimal places to display in percent change (default=2)
color=yes — display percent change in the following colors: (default)
- gain in green
- no change in default color
- loss in red
color=no — display percent change in default color
sort=yes — add a hidden sort key prefix (default)
sort=no — don't add a hidden sort key prefix
