I'm a new user and I didn't even know the meta wikipedia was there... I was about to write my own page of 'questions about the wikepedia' to try and get some answers. As it is I hadn't done it yet and now I know it doesn't belong in the main wiki-space at all... I've also found answers to some of my questions just by browsing, so I don't feel the need to ask them anymore! But since I didn't know about the meta-wp, the odds are that nor will any other newbie, and newbies are just the sort of people with questions and queries about the nature of the wikipedia... given the nature of the project I can see a hundred newbies coming in over a period of time and making pages entitled 'Things I want to know about the Wikipedia' or 'My Questions I want answered' etc... either that or I'm just wierd! I've never been one to lurk and wait - if I think something's a good idea I tend to jump in with both feet :) Anyway, to get to the point, my suggestion is that there should be a clear statement on the front page of the Wikipedia directing people to the meta-wikipedia for discussions ABOUT the Wikipedia, like the link sending people back to the main page from the front page of the meta.
