jslife redirects to Jason Summers, I suggest a disambig for Jason Summers and jslife-moving (the latter may need a page).

A disambig is not needed here. A separate page for jslife would be sufficient.

An imprecise redirect to a page about someone from a page about another subject (not from a page about someone else) seems slightly more acceptable than the other way round. In this case, jslife is mentioned on the target page, so there is no hurry to fix anything. But it is still an imprecise redirect and I think a separate page would be nice.

Edit (to below):

But jslife-moving (https://github.com/Matthias-Merzenich/j ... 2-0024.rle) is not the same as jslife yet is often referred to as jslife.

As explained here, jslife-moving "extends part of Jason Summers' jslife collection. Older c/3 and 2c/5 collections by David Bell and Paul Tooke are also incorporated without modification".

OCA:Logarithmic replicator rule should be updated with the following spaceships:

• (2,1)c/6, found by me on December 21, 2020
• 14c/504o, found today by Peter Naszvadi and improved by toroidalet

If another engineered spaceship is found in this rule, I will update this post.

The 72P68 is no longer notable as it isn't the smallest P68 any more:
...

I think it is still notable, specifically for the reason that there was a point in time when it was the smallest known p68. I edited the article to reflect the fact that a smaller p68 was found.

The Template:CurrentNews page that is displayed on the wiki front page now has a entry that says this:

Using parts of a new extensible 8-engine Cordership, Brett Berger completes a pattern that produces a single glider stream with an irrational bit density, followed by another pattern that emits gliders in a line whose slope is the golden ratio.

The only thing that is linked is the 8-engine cordership. Where are the forum posts/discord messages relating to the other things (i.e. irrational density thing, phi thing)? (I use "thing" here because it's also unclear if the "pattern" is a rake or a gun.)

Thanks for that. I wasn't so much concerned that the page didn't exist, I was just concerned that it wasn't linked in the news item. I would have never assumed that the page for that was "Phi line".

Do we have any evidence for wing or fleet in 1970? I can't, but they seem common enough that they would have appeared at some point before the end of the year, especially given that the LWSS and tumbler were found in 1970.
