David Gerard notes that on wikien there are many such
essays; and I
believe there are also quite a number on de:wp. Are there any efforts
to gathering/organizing these essays, similar to efforts to organize
policy?
As I understand it, most essays used to be on meta, whereas nowadays
they are often created on the "home" project of their author. My
speculation is that its a function of meta becoming less of a place
for broad, generalist discussion about the projects and more about
coordination.
I'm not aware of any global efforts to gather essays, although some
users do keep their own lists. MeatballWiki
(
http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?MeatballWiki) of course is a
goldmine for this sort of thing.
