Given the project-wide nature of the 300,000 article announcement I think that this very issue should finally be addressed. We don't need anything real fancy, just the already developed idea here http://mitglied.lycos.de/manske/wiki/test.php (without the intro text; its simply too long). Somebody will have to figure out how to fetch each wiki's {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} output to make this work though. We can add more features as time goes by.
We can switch the logo and move en.wiki at the same time.

I think that page looks good in principle.
About two months ago I brought the subject back up on the international mailing list, and Jimbo pronounced in favour of it. :) I think we can move this thing forward :)
