Reason
This extension's MediaWiki.org page was marked as archived by @Kghbln last month. According to its pre-archival version, the extension explicitly supports MediaWiki 1.5.x+, so it is drastically out-of-date. WikiApiary.org doesn't even have a page for the extension, so it is presumably not installed on any known wikis. Looking through the documentation and the linked code, this isn't even an extension, but a template written to work with a particular (ancient) version of DPL, with additional dependencies.
