Moddb Addons pages

I was starting to convert the links on Balance and Difficulty Mods to this template and ran across Galsiah's Character Development. This is on ModDB, but {{dlmod|moddb|galsiahs-character-development}} doesn't work because its URL has morrowind/addons in it instead of the expected format. Is there some way we can have this template incorporate mods at URLs like this? -Thunderforge (talk) 03:06, 27 July 2017 (CEST)

Done, as |moddb2 (not sure of any other way to do it but a separate parameter). — Darklocq  ¢ 15:57, 12 September 2017 (CEST)

Add Bethesda?

We have a page for Bethesda Softworks Mods. Is it worth adding support for something like {{dlmod|bethesda|adamantiumarmor}}? -Thunderforge (talk) 03:23, 27 July 2017 (CEST)

I went ahead and added it. -Thunderforge (talk) 02:16, 9 August 2017 (CEST)
Yeah, it was kinda silly of me to not think to include that as the first thing to have. Derp. Might be less confusing to refer to them as DLCs or add-ons, including at that page. "Mod" implies third-party modification, and it might confuse some noobs. UESP ended up going this route, and changing all references to the official stuff to no longer use "mods" (but they made it complicated, and draw a distinction between "expansions" (major) and "add-ons" (minor), which is unnecessarily fiddly). — Darklocq  ¢ 15:47, 12 September 2017 (CEST)
