For instance, a short paragraph at the top of http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Interwiki_map could do the trick. In fact, a simple paragraph of explanation is currently curiously absent from the InterWiki Map.
The talk page has some criteria:
I forgot to list the criteria!
The associated page is used by the Mediawiki software to add and remove interwiki link prefixes (such as [[w:blah]] to "blah" on Wikipedia). Any meta administrator can edit the interwiki map.
Please post comments to the appropriate section below (Proposed additions, Proposed removals, Troubleshooting, or Other discussions); read the messageboxes at the top of each section for an explanation. Completed requests are moved to the archives (current).
Proposed additions: This section is for proposing a new interwiki link prefix; add new entries at the bottom of the section. When requesting a new prefix, please explain why it would be useful. Interwiki prefixes should be reserved for websites that would be useful on a significant number of pages. Websites useful only to a few pages should be linked to with the usual external link syntax. Please don't propose addtions of sites with too few pages or that contains copyright infringing content, such as YouTube.
Proposed removals: This section is for proposing that a prefix be disabled; please add new entries at the bottom of the section. Remember to explain why it should be disabled, particularly in view of the difficulty involved in correcting any use of the prefix. Completed requests are marked with {{done}} or {{not done}} and moved to the archives.
