Inaugral bump thread (12th July to 19th July)

Recently I came across the Akrasia Tactics Review article, then a ‘bump’ thread which spread the relevant content over multiple places, making tracking the content harder. It’s apparent that some people believe some Lesswrong articles may be undervalued by the community (after factoring in karma as an indication of the community’s appraisal)

Bump threads crowd out new articles and may annoy the more comprehensive or more experienced readers. This article is prototype for a regular (or whenever anyone else wants to take the initiative to start one) discussion board thread where people can lobby for increased visitation to articles of their interest. Don’t make the threads run for too long − 1 week as a guide. Tag them with bump_thread

Future thread starters should not suggest an article in the initial discussion post, as I have. Although, this is useful as a guide for what I have in mind.
