Cleaning - BOSS vs Wrye Bash Plugin Checker

That guide hasn't been edited at all since 2014 and doesn't seem like it was meaningfully updated since like 2010. The cleaning instructions are excessively out of date, all you need to do is to use the TES4EditQAC.exe executable and clean each plugin one at a time. This process is smart and will not break any edits. You physically can't clean cleaned plugins but also you should always clean plugins if LOOT says its dirty. New dirty edits are found all the time as the dirty edit finder algorithm gets better. So yes, that guide shouldn't be trusted at all. Here is the output from cleaning UOP:

 

 

LOOT Masterlist Entries

- name: 'unofficial oblivion patch.esp'
dirty:
- <<: *quickClean
crc: 0xBBFBF53A
util: '[TES4Edit v4.0.3b](https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/11536)'
itm: 6
clean:
- crc: 0x2F21CA0E
util: 'TES4Edit v4.0.3b'

BOSS Masterlist Entries

unofficial oblivion patch.esp
IF CHECKSUM("unofficial oblivion patch.esp", BBFBF53A) DIRTY: 6 ITM, 0 UDR records. Needs TES4Edit cleaning: "http://cs.elderscrolls.com/index.php?title=TES4Edit_Cleaning_Guide"

 

As you can see, it is dirty and should be cleaned. There is never a reason to specifically not clean plugins. I tried cleaning SM Plugin Refurbished (the updated one) and there was nothing to clean
