It is an excellent and popular way to *celebrate* (not just describe) good-faith new contributors. The way it works is a couple of volunteers who run the page look for a relatively new contributor who seems to have successfully integrated on-wiki, and has made more than a handful of good contributions, and they approach the new contributor with a request for an interview and a description of this page.
Sounds great. If en.WP do this as part of The Signpost, it would have a high level of reach, immediately. Same with Wikidata's weekly update.
