Module:Portal

This module has two functions, portal and image. The portal produces a box with links to a portal or to multiple portals, and is used by the {{portal}} template. It is most often used in the "See also" section of an article. The image function produces the name of the image used by the specified portal.

Portal function

The portal function produces a box of portal links.

This template is used to produce a link in a box to a portal or portals.

Parameters

{{Portal|Name 1|Name 2|Name 3...|size=Size|boxsize=Boxsize|margin=Margin}}

Name

The name of the portal. If multiple portal names are used the other parameters will be ignored.

The following additional parameters are available. They are all optional, the default values are chosen to give a good look and feel across the encylopedia and should not be overridden without good reason.

|size=Size

The width of the icon, as an integer. This is in units of pixels. The default is 28 times the image aspect ratio, which produces an image 28 pixels high.

|boxsize=Boxsize

The width of the box, as an integer. This is in units of pixels. The default is to use a box wide enough to hold the text, if possible.

|margin=Margin

The margin around the box. By default, the box is surrounded by a margin of width 0.5em, but this can be customized using |margin=top right bottom left (e.g., |margin=0.25em 0 0.25em 0.25em) or removed using |margin=0 (zero).

|break=Break

If set to "Yes", adds a line break before the word "portal".

Images

The portal image defaults to one that is specified in Template:Portal/Images/PortalName for the portal, or a generic image. There is a list of all such images. Have in mind that the "PortalName" variable should only have an upper case letter at the first word, the second and later words should be written in lower case, regardless of how is the name of the portal actually written. For example, Portal:Buenos Aires is written with two capital letters, but the subpage to host the image is Template:Portal/Images/Buenos aires, with only one capital letter.

Location

Within articles, this template is meant to be placed at the bottom of the article in the See also section.

Examples

Code	Result
{{Portal|অসম}}	অসম ৱিকিচ'ৰা
{{Portal|অসম|size=15}}	অসম ৱিকিচ'ৰা
{{Portal|অসম|boxsize=50}}	অসম ৱিকিচ'ৰা

See also

• Template:Pbox
• Template:Portal bar
• Template:Portal box
• Template:Portal-inline
• Template:Ports

Image function

The image function produces the name of the image used by the specified portal.

Usage

{{#invoke:Portal|image|portal}}

Example

• {{#invoke:Portal|image|Art}} → Ballerina-icon.jpg

Image dupes function

The image dupes function returns a list of all images that are being used by more than one portal (aliases are not included). This can be helpful in identifying image entries that should be changed to use aliases.

Usage

{{#invoke:Portal|imageDupes}}

Display all function

The display all function returns a box containing all portals that have images. This is used for maintenance, and should not be displayed in articles, because a) there are around 1500 portals with images, and displaying 1500 images on one page takes up a lot of server resources, and b) the module has no way to know the correct capitalisation of a portal name, so some links to portals will be broken. This function can be seen at Template:Portal/doc/all.

Usage

{{#invoke:Portal|displayAll}}

--[==[ This module is a Lua implementation of the old {{Portal}} template. As of February 2019 it is used on nearly 7,900,000 articles.
-- Please take care when updating it! It outputs two functions: p.portal, which generates a list of portals, and p.image, which
-- produces the image name for an individual portal.

-- The portal image data is kept in submodules of [[Module:Portal/images]], listed below:
-- [[Module:Portal/images/a]]		- for portal names beginning with "A".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/b]]		- for portal names beginning with "B".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/c]]		- for portal names beginning with "C".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/d]]		- for portal names beginning with "D".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/e]]		- for portal names beginning with "E".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/f]]		- for portal names beginning with "F".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/g]]		- for portal names beginning with "G".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/h]]		- for portal names beginning with "H".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/i]]		- for portal names beginning with "I".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/j]]		- for portal names beginning with "J".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/k]]		- for portal names beginning with "K".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/l]]		- for portal names beginning with "L".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/m]]		- for portal names beginning with "M".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/n]]		- for portal names beginning with "N".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/o]]		- for portal names beginning with "O".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/p]]		- for portal names beginning with "P".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/q]]		- for portal names beginning with "Q".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/r]]		- for portal names beginning with "R".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/s]]		- for portal names beginning with "S".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/t]]		- for portal names beginning with "T".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/u]]		- for portal names beginning with "U".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/v]]		- for portal names beginning with "V".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/w]]		- for portal names beginning with "W".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/x]]		- for portal names beginning with "X".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/y]]		- for portal names beginning with "Y".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/z]]		- for portal names beginning with "Z".
-- [[Module:Portal/images/other]]	- for portal names beginning with any other letters. This includes numbers,
-- 									  letters with diacritics, and letters in non-Latin alphabets.
-- [[Module:Portal/images/aliases]]	- for adding aliases for existing portal names. Use this page for variations
-- 									  in spelling and diacritics, etc., no matter what letter the portal begins with.
--
-- The images data pages are separated by the first letter to reduce server load when images are added, changed, or removed.
-- Previously all the images were on one data page at [[Module:Portal/images]], but this had the disadvantage that all
-- 5,000,000 pages using this module needed to be refreshed every time an image was added or removed.
