I guess it wasn’t clear, but I was suggesting that if those papers had been posted here while they were still in draft form (as opposed to “finished and published”), they would have received more discussions since people would have more incentives to participate and potentially influence the final output.
As for your posts, I think the reason for lack of useful feedback is that they are mostly summaries of many academic papers and it’s hard to give useful feedback without spending a lot of time to read those papers which nobody has an sufficient incentive to.
I got some comments for mydrafts. There were some valuable suggestions in both threads which I incorporated, but I had hoped for a little more feedback.
If you post more drafts in the future, I think it would help to add more context: Who is the target audience? What are you hoping to accomplish with the papers? (If we knew that we might care more about helping you to improve them.) Do they contain any ideas that are new to LW?

Thanks, that’s a good suggestion.
