I agree that having some central directory or collection of the summaries/​collections would be ideal. And I think all of those suggestions for achieving that are good.
Also, I think EA Concepts is great. And I think people who haven’t checked it out should, or should keep it in mind when they encounter a concept they’re unfamiliar with. (Conceptually also performs a similar function. It isn’t explicitly EA-focused, but it was made by EAs and covers a lot of concepts EAs like to use.) However:
EA Concepts doesn’t cover everything
The entries are quite short, which is of course valuable in some ways, but also means there could also be value in longer summaries that build on, go beyond, and add detail to what’s in those entries
The entries seem slightly old now, so they may not reflect the latest work, nor contain links to it. A forum post will later suffer the same issue, but it allows comments, so people could comment to add discussion of or links to more recent work. (That said, it seems relatively rare for people to comment on older posts, which I think is a shame.)
This suggests that one possible solution would be for the people behind EA Concepts to crowdsource (and then vet) new entries, and/​or updated versions of existing entries.
