Nice suggestion. Did you by any chance know that these are editable by all
administrator of Meta-Wiki? You can make your changes to a /test of the main
site page. There is a listing of these templates for the site front pages

Just seen in the report:
"Next, we discussed what do to with the
wikipedia.com portal, and
agreed to the concept of setting up a specific portal, where we could
explain more about the projects, about the Foundation, welcome
services etc... all things to be discussed in length as wikipedians
know perfectly to do."
On a related topic, what would people think of improving the main
portals for the projects other than Wikipedia? The Wikipedia portal
[1] works very nicely, and I think it would be a simple matter to give
the other projects a similarly elegant and professional look simply by
copying the design and substituting the central logo. The stacks of
books could be substituted to add a little flavour; Wikinews for
example could have little stacks of newspapers instead.
