Too long
WP:SHORTDESC recommends a maximum length of 40 characters, and this template currently generates a minimum of 51 characters ("Wikipedia's portal for exploring content related to"). Perhaps it should be shortened. —

It was easy to remove a dozen characters, although that will still leave the final descriptions (including the portal name) longer than the limit. --

Capitalization adjusted
I have made this apply default lower-case text to the portal name, per
WP:SDFORMAT. This will cause some short descriptions to have invalid capitalization; I will fix them. –
