A very inefficient template for generating mod lists.
Uses TabberNeue to make 4 tabs: Alphabetical, Most Viewed, Recently Updated, and Recently Added.
It then checks if the current game has more than 100 mods (checking [[Category:Game name mods]] using {{PAGESINCAT: {{PAGENAME}}}}) and if so sets the class to dplcategory, which MediaWiki:Common.css will display as 2 columns. It checks 2 times per tab (div start and div end) for a total of 8 checks per usage of this template.
In each tab it uses DynamicPageList3 to generate a list of mods based off category entries. DPL3 doesn't allow Magic words, so use parameters to make it easier to fill in the game page/category name. 25 parameter slots just in case a lot of categories need included/excluded. Output removes Game name mods/ from the hyperlink text (if replaceintitle is correctly set), and adds {{SHORTDESC}} if it exists.
Alphabetical: Ordered by page title. No extra formatting.
Most Viewed: Ordered by view count, descending. Include %COUNT% in the display.
Recently Updated: Ordered by last edit, descending. Include %DATE% in the display. This unfortunately includes minor edits as using minoredits = exclude to change the sorting doesn't change %DATE%, so the date shown and list order would be off.
Recently Added: Ordered by first edit, descending. Include %DATE% in the display.
