''orderdirection'' can be one of: |

* ''ascending'' — depending on the critria set, smallest to largest, least to most, 0 to 9 and/or A to Z — '''(default)''' |

If combined with <code>{{DPL|ordermethod}}</code>, the <code>''ascending''</code> and <code>''descending''</code> values can control the sort direction of some ordermethod values, such as <code>ordermethod=''title''</code>. |
