Recently, Adam Carr contributed a well-researched writeup about Wikipedia article quality. It has since been moved to the meta. I am concerned that it will receive little attention on the meta, because relatively few Wikipedians read the meta, and those few that do are not representative of the community. I believe such discussions should take place in the Wikipedia: or Wikipedia_talk: article spaces, now that these are available, so that the discussion appears in recent changes, and so that it is seen by everyone who may be interested. Apparently there is a standing policy against such discussions in those article spaces. I believe the policy should change. The meta is useful for discussing the technical arcana, interlanguage issues, and nuts-and-bolts issues of logos and press releases and so forth. But I believe it is a mistake to send general-interest discussions about article content there. All they get is a decent burial. Louis
