LOOT plays a key role in these efforts, as it holds the complete list of all known dirty mods (as does BOSS), and it uses this information to provide notification messages to users for any dirty mods they have installed.
As such, there are community efforts to raise awareness of dirty edits and cleaning. The problem of dirty edits is largely a problem of ignorance on the part of mod authors and users alike of the problems dirty mods can cause. Detailed instructions and information on mod cleaning are available at 圎dit's cleaning guide. Thankfully there is a way to remove dirty edits from mods relatively easily, a process known as mod cleaning, using TES4Edit, FO3Edit, FNVEdit, TES5Edit, FO4Edit or SSEEdit (for Oblivion, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, Skyrim, Fallout 4 and Skyrim: Special Edition respectively).
The more dirty edits there are in a mod, and the more mods with dirty edits you use, the more likely you are to experience issues. Dirty edits can cause a wide range of issues, including incorrect game settings, missing content, broken quests and crashing to desktop. Dirty edits are often a side-effect of mod creation, and are often due to bugs in the utilities Bethesda has provided to create mods, rather than bad practice by mod authors.
