I added it a while ago, but for discussions of wide interest, don't
forget the Signpost tipline:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/Newsroom/Suggestions

We are trying to cover community-wide discussions on a regular basis
now. Remember that other event or project news and announcements are
also welcome at the tipline, both from en:wp and from the other
projects. It's most helpful if you can leave an item that is written
up and ready to publish :)
