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.

Hi there,

bug was already filled at

is there someone who can help move on?
It looks like a good idea to me. Do you have any experience running
one of those sites?
As with any new project, a set of people signed up to help administer
it / be initial contributors and editosr would be useful. So I think
it's still valuable to create a page about it on meta as a 'new
project' even though we haven't cleaned up the new project process
there recently.
