-Blogs which are currently inactive but somewhat likely to be revived have been moved to an inactive section. I included the date of their last post.
-Blogs which are officially closed or have not been updated in many years are now all in the “Gone but not forgetten” section
Downsides:
-Categorizing the blogs I added was hard, its unclear how well I did. By some standard most rationalist blogs should be in “general rationality”
-The blog descriptions could be improved (both for the blog-listings I added and the pre-existing listings)
-I don’t know the names of the authors of Several blogs I added.
I am posting this here because I think the article is of general interest to rationalists. In addition the page could use some more polish and attention. I also think it might be interesting to think about improving the lesswrong wiki. Several pages could use an update. However this update took a considerable amount of time. So I understand why many wiki pages are not up to date. How can we make it easier and more rewarding to work on the wiki?
I Updated the List of Rationalist Blogs on the Wiki
I recently updated the list of rationalist community blogs. The new page is here: https://wiki.lesswrong.com/wiki/List_of_Blogs
Improvements:
-Tons of (active) blogs have been added
-All dead links have been removed
-Blogs which are currently inactive but somewhat likely to be revived have been moved to an inactive section. I included the date of their last post.
-Blogs which are officially closed or have not been updated in many years are now all in the “Gone but not forgetten” section
