How about:
With one argument, FIRST is the nickname of the user to request whois
information for.
With two arguments, FIRST is the server, and SECOND is the user
nickname.
Specifying the server is useful for getting the time that the user has
been idle for, when it is connected to a different server on the same
IRC network. (Only the server a user is connected to knows how long the
user has been idle.)
