Here is an idea to ponder.
It is often difficult to find the right people to talk to about various issues concerning all projects. While we do have ambassadors, the concept is fairly moribund, and no one knows exactly who is the ambassador to which project.
I propose that an Embassy link be placed prominently on the recent changes page of each Wiki. That way, if the board or representatives of other projects want to inform a project of some activity, request, etc. it will be immediately found and translated. To avoid the sticky issue of language, some icon should be developed for the embassy page, so that it can be easily found on each Recent Changes page.
This will be especially useful when we want to announce news of the upcoming Board Elections, and for many other purposes as well.
Just an idea.
