Rachel, please make it clearer that all suggestions (including those made using the wizard) are to be posted on the talk page and that any discussion of the suggestions will be redirected there. This needs to be in the lede section of the page. Otherwise, your staff are going to waste time and irritate users by moving their comments and contributions over to talk. And no, you can't lock the page. :-)

Also consider shortening what is written there; it would be good to see at least the words "Make a suggestion" before hitting the point where one needs to scroll on a typical desktop screen. (In fact, mobile users will have the advantage of seeing that well before desktop users will, despite the majority of anticipated participants being in the latter group.)
