Great! Could you two please revise the current
dormant proposal at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiAnswers
And note that one of the active uses of the site would be a channel
dedicated to Q&A about using the Wikimedia projects and MediaWiki?
I think it is simpler and easier to say "let's start a Q&A site, and
focus on building a help channel there".
As long as the site is up and maintained, you could answer other
questions there as well. The WP:RefDesk has never been an ideal
formal for answering questions or, more importantly, for aggregating
and organizing answers over time so that it develops into a permanent
reference resource.
