When I look at things like the Forgotten Realms Wiki all of the lore seems to stop in the 1370's. But current DR year is closer to 1490. Is there any site that fills in lore for the 1450s and onward?
The lore on that wiki seems to stop in the 1370s mainly because WotC hasn’t published anything new for 90% of the world. For the areas they have had 5e products, the lore is actually on the wiki, but since it’s almost entirely adventures, even those areas don’t have much actual lore additions. Just in 1e thru 3e, there were A LOT of pure lore books and novels that added to the lore. So the overwhelming amount of info on that site is from that era.
But 5e lore is there, just rare since there’s not much of it.
RA Salvatore has several novels that take place after 1370. I’m curious as to why the wiki is not updated with more of that information? It seems that people simply stopped updating the wiki with anything but WotC adventure information.

The wiki focuses on things 1370 and earlier because everyrthing afterwards are when this editions adventures occur.
When theirs 6e (or perphaps even we get to 5.5) it will probally shift towards when the 5e adventures end, and the 6e ones start.
