You have done a great job, keep it up! And I too agree with the English version, for several reasons: there are lots of loanwords from English already on the Internet, nobody seems to have a problem- 'post', for example, is quite international.

There doesn't seem to be a precise translation of 'wrong' to Russian, except the negatives, which don't sound well.

And mostly because 'lesswrong' is something like a brand already, not just the meaning of words that make it, and no one translates those. It would be easier for people to find the original source for more information.
