Wiki pages don’t need directed attention right now, they need general attention. There should be people with a goal of improving LW wiki, not so much people with a goal of improving specific pages on the wiki.
So, what kind of general attention does the wiki need?
Improving quality of the articles. Most articles are stubs, significant portions of articles don’t contain any text, they only link to blog posts and other articles. These are the stages of LW article development that I see:
Includes links to blog posts that present the idea (“Blog posts” section; this is minimal stub)
Links to related wiki articles (“See also” section), and has incoming links from them (a minimal stub located within the wiki)
One-sentence summary of the idea
One-paragraph summary of the idea
Summary that discusses related ideas and links to other wiki articles from the textual description, and not just from a “See also” list at the end
Article itself links to original sources, not just to blog posts linking to those sources.
Article summarizes arguments for usefulness/correctness of the idea, not just defines the idea.
I think discussion posts like this one are a good way to highlight wiki entries that need work, and to direct attention to the wiki pages in general.

I’m suggesting that directed attention can lead to general attention, but perhaps I don’t understand what you mean by general attention.

I suggest something top-level in the main section to inspire people.
I see you’ve supplied the last few mainspace edits that weren’t a diplomacy game, so well done ;-)
