Mathemagician314's proposal

1. Life and it’s variants

- Life

- Outer-totalistic life variants (aka HighLife, DryLife, Pedestrian Life, etc.)

- INT Life Variants (aka tLife and its variants, etc.)

2. Computing Rules

3. Rules with complex/interesting dynamics

4. Rules notable due to one or a few interesting objects

- (this includes many ships from the 5S project)

5. Exploding yet notable rules

6. Strobing rules

7. Other notable or heavily explored rules

8. A collection of tens to hundreds of rules that were briefly explored which have a few interesting objects, where each rules gets something like a paragraph
