"Are we going to make a page about every wiki user or just someone who has some notability...?" [[:Category:Wiki People]] says "this is a list of people who consider themselves to be part of the wiki community and their associations to various Wiki sites". I would say that [[PeterKa]] probably considers himself part of the wiki community. Shall we change that page to say "this is a list of ''notable'' people . . ."?

Either way, another question is, are we going to actually make use of [[Template:Delete]] and invite discussion, or just have [[sysop]]s delete pages summarily? Pages deleted in that manner can be undeleted, but then we have the classic problem that non-sysops are unable to view the page and therefore cannot give very well-informed input about whether undeletion would be a good idea. If we are going to use the template, then sysops will need to periodically close those discussions; that didn't happen with the last round of deletion proposals. They sat there for weeks, so I closed them myself as "keep" or "no consensus" since there was in fact no consensus to delete (hardly anyone saw fit to weigh in on those talk pages).
