Because data stored through this module can be invoked by any modules used in the same page. To avoid being interfered with by other modules, a module '''MUST''' store data in their own namespace. For example in "Module:Example": | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang='lua'> | |||
... | |||
local static = require( 'Module:Static' ) | |||
if not static.Example then | |||
static.Example = {} | |||
end | |||
static.Example.exampleData = 3 | |||
