Cleaning is a type of Template:L used by dwarves in order to clean tiles. In order for dwarves to use this Template:L, they must enabled inside the labor menu's Other Jobs tab. Cleaning is automatically enabled.

Though your dwarves are able to clean your fortress, they cannot clean anything outside, making it easy for them to track anything inside. However, only Template:L can be tracked around. Template:L is able to clean anything outside, but does not clean the entire map, only cleans squares rain has hit. Most of the time, your dwarves will constantly track in blood, and never clean it up, and also leave Template:L lying about the fortress if water is within the fortress.

Dwarves with the Cleaning skill enabled will also occasionally clean themselves, using whatever they can that can be used to clean themselves with, including water and soap. There is currently a fat bug leading to spam of messages "cannot clean self" when soap is available. the only known workaround is to forbid all soap outside the hospital.
