&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;--[==[ This module is a Lua implementation of the old {{Portal}} template. As of August 2013 it is used on nearly 5,000,000 articles.&lt;br /&gt;
-- Please take care when updating it! It outputs two functions: p.portal, which generates a table of portals, and p.image, which&lt;br /&gt;
-- produces the image name for an individual portal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-- The portal image data is kept in submodules of [[Module:Portal/images]], listed below:&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/a]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;A&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/b]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;B&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/c]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;C&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/d]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;D&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/e]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;E&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/f]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;F&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/g]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;G&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/h]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;H&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/i]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;I&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/j]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;J&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/k]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;K&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/l]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;L&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/m]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;M&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/n]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;N&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/o]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;O&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/p]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;P&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/q]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;Q&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/r]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;R&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/s]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;S&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/t]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;T&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/u]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;U&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/v]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;V&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/w]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;W&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/x]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;X&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/y]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;Y&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/z]]       - for portal names beginning with &amp;quot;Z&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/other]]   - for portal names beginning with any other letters. This includes numbers,&lt;br /&gt;
--                                    letters with diacritics, and letters in non-Latin alphabets.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[Module:Portal/images/aliases]] - for adding aliases for existing portal names. Use this page for variations&lt;br /&gt;
--                                    in spelling and diacritics, etc., no matter what letter the portal begins with.&lt;br /&gt;
--&lt;br /&gt;
-- The images data pages are separated by the first letter to reduce server load when images are added, changed, or removed.&lt;br /&gt;
-- Previously all the images were on one data page at [[Module:Portal/images]], but this had the disadvantage that all&lt;br /&gt;
-- 5,000,000 pages using this module needed to be refreshed every time an image was added or removed.&lt;br /&gt;
