Well, damn. Don't know how the message got removed. Anyways, here it is :)

Hi all.

I would like to request your attention to a vote that will start this 
midnight, regarding a rearrangement of the top ten Wikipedias that are 
displayed on the main wikipedia portal (http://www.wikipedia.org 
<http://www.wikipedia.org/>).

This topic has been wandering around for a long time on 
Talk:www.wikipedia.org template 
<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:www.wikipedia.org_template>, coming 
to surface in many occasions, especially on the times around the 
milestone of 100.000 articles of the Chinese and Russian Wikipedias.

After a tentative wrap-up of all the proposals made in that page 
throughout the months in Talk:www.wikipedia.org template#rethinking the 
top ten 
<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Www.wikipedia.org_template#rethinking_the_top_ten>, 
a discussion was launched in *Top Ten Wikipedias 
<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Top_Ten_Wikipedias>*, to which all the 
major Wikipedias have been invited to in their village pump.

A lot of good opinions have been collected and discussed, and a vote 
proposal 
<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Top_Ten_Wikipedias#Vote_proposal> 
has been made and received some feedback. That proposal was now 
implemented on Metapub. Please head to the poll 
<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Metapub#Top_10_Wikipedias.28poll.29> to 
vote. I hope to see you there! --Waldir
