The '''DynamicPageList3''' extension is a reporting tool for MediaWiki, listing category members and intersections with various formats and details. When invoked with a basic set of selection parameters, DPL displays a list of pages in one or more categories. Selections may also be based on factors such as author, namespace, date, name pattern, usage of templates, or references to other articles. Output takes a variety of forms, some of which incorporate elements of selected articles.
