DynamicPageList (DPL)
DPL is a report generator for MediaWikis. DPL creates lists of articles that match certain criteria.
Articles are listed by name. Meta data like author, popularity or date of last update can be added.
There are powerful mechanisms to extract contents from articles and include it into the result.
Typical application fields for DPL are the automatic generation of summaries and navigational aids,
creation of random pages and (probably most important:) quality assurance.
