Credits
These lists were created and are maintained by user jdk on reddit.com, with help from:
- documents by hero0fwar and by iLLeT; (EndsInThemselves pointed me to the second doc)
- the old TV Subreddit Directory;
- my own on-going efforts to located other subreddits, and scripts that I wrote;
- redditors' feedback and corrections to earlier versions of this issue on reddit, including this old post;
- redditors who write to me about this wiki.
Notable events about these lists
- On Wednesday July 24th, 2013, asking as a mod of /r/television, hero0fwar sent jdk a PM for the scripts for this data. In response, jdk sent hero0fwar the google doc scripts that fetch the subreddit numbers from reddit and from stattit
- On May 20, seeing that there is no replacement for stattit that went out of business, the "most active subreddits" list has been removed.
- On July 9th, 2014, /r/TVSubreddits was created for the maintenance of this list.
