About making things cleaner and, potentially, also nicer (9)
I believe the answer is:
censorial
'about making things cleaner' is the definition.
(censorship might clean something up)
'potentially also nicer' is the wordplay.
'potentially' indicates an anagram (letters have the potential to spell a new word).
'also'+'nicer'='alsonicer'
'alsonicer' is an anagram of 'CENSORIAL'.
'and' is the link.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
