For someone familiar with the environment, setting up a weekly cron job that follows the algorithm defined by Luke (something like: go through the articles to be featured, find four least recently featured (or four at random from 20 LRFs, or whatever), update the Featured Articles entry) should be a no-brainer. My area of expertise is software design and embedded C programming, not web stuff, so someone else would have to do it.
You could write a script that generates next week's wiki page source.
Oops, fixed.
I wonder what percentage of my Less Wrong comments basically just say "Oops, fixed." :)
I checked. A fairly low proportion.
(Control-F for "fixed" and "oops" at http://www.ibiblio.org/weidai/lesswrong_user.php?u=lukeprog )
Less Wrong needs a volunteer to change the 'Featured Articles' once a week. I have detailed instructions on what to do (which wiki entry to edit, which articles have already been featured, which articles to feature in the future, etc.) I've been doing it so far, but not changing it as often as it should be changed. It takes about 5 minutes each time you do it.
Who is willing to do this?
