I was thinking of porting it full-scale here. It is in R-markdown format. But all the citations would be quite difficult to port. They look like [@something2000].
I’d recommend porting it over as a sequence instead of one big post (or maybe just port the first chunk as an intro post?). LW doesn’t have a citation format, but you can use footnotes for it (and you can use the same footnote number in multiple places).
Porting it full-scale seems nice. Our markdown dialect does indeed not currently support that citation format, but a simple regex would probably be good enough to just replace all the citations with footnotes.
don’t think so, I’ve bugged them about it before so maybe it got implemented while I wasn’t looking but idk where to find out. what do you use to process the citations into the form on the webpage? I doubt they’ll implement it now but sending the code for it could make it happen someday

Does LessWrong allow convenient citations?

I use a fairly basic Quarto template for website. The code for the entire site is on github.
