--- @module Mainpage/Event/Legacy
--- The event card built around an ordinary photograph: the picture stands in a
--- column beside the text on a wide card, and the clock stands beside that.
---
--- Kept as the alternative to Module:Mainpage/Event, which is built around the
--- 1080x83 strips in [[:Category:Main page banner images]] instead. Which one
--- the page uses follows from which key the settings file carries, so switching
--- back is a settings edit and not a module edit.
---
--- Its cost, and the reason it is no longer the default: a portrait column is
--- the one shape a wide banner cannot be cropped to, and the card changes shape
--- twice on the way down to a phone, so both the picture column and the clock
--- need viewport overrides from the page in Module:Mainpage/styles.css.
