The LOOT team provides a focus for community efforts to raise awareness regarding mod cleaning, by accepting reports of dirty mods and attaching them to the relevant plugins in the LOOT masterlist as messages containing a link to this wiki page, along with any additional information supplied. Mod authors need to ensure that their mods are clean, because they only need to clean their mod once for all future users to benefit, whereas every single user of a dirty mod would have to clean it themselves, which is hugely inefficient. Mod quality is a community-wide problem that needs to be properly addressed on a community level. Second, and following from the first, depending on how the cleaning was done, people end up with slightly different versions of these modules, which is going to make support in case of problems a nightmare for the mod author. There might be implicit dependencies on other mods which are not part of the master list.

First, to properly clean mods usually requires an understanding of the intent of the mod author. It's NOT a good idea for everyone to just go ahead and clean their full load order and then forget about it. As such, a community-wide effort is required to raise awareness and so reduce the incidence of dirty mods. The principal reason for the presence of dirty mods is a lack of awareness of the issues surrounding dirty mods and the importance of mod cleaning. 7.6 Appendix B - Manually Cleaning Dawnguard.7.4.14 Checking for Circular Leveled Lists.7.4.12 Listing Master File References from a specific plugin.
