 # It deals with `ProjectStatistics.increment_statistic` making sure not to update statistics on a cascade delete from the
 # project, and keeping track of value deltas on each save. It updates the DB only when a change is needed.
 #
-# How to use
-# - Invoke `update_project_statistics stat: :a_project_statistics_column, attribute: :an_attr_to_track` in a model class body.
+# Example:
 #
-# Expectation
-# - `attribute` must be an ActiveRecord attribute
+# module Ci
+#   class JobArtifact < ApplicationRecord
+#     include UpdateProjectStatistics
+#
+#     update_project_statistics project_statistics_name: :build_artifacts_size
+#   end
+# end
+#
+# Expectation:
+#
+# - `statistic_attribute` must be an ActiveRecord attribute
 # - The model must implement `project` and `project_id`. i.e. direct Project relationship or delegation
