Would it be possible to make the existence of a Wiki more "in your face"? Because people don't seem to look under "Community" -> "Get help" -> "Use the Wiki". A direct link right in the navbar right next to "Talk" wouldn't be much effort. Thank you.

Nothing in the works, huh?

Good point - the wiki is pretty much hidden. I mostly use browser autocomplete or just type the URL directly.

IMHO, there is enough space in the header or the right column for a wiki button.

Apparently not.
Should be fairly straight forward to add this to the navi bar, tho.

Very good idea to have the wiki more present, something like "SEARCH THE WIKI - Get answers here". So people can just drop a keyword and see whats already there.
IMHO it's a bit cluttered/unclear too, esp. for beginners to get an overview. Probably would be a good idea to have less categories in the future, as a topic could fit to multiple categories as it is now.
Also, the community pages take very long to load and aren't rendered correctly (in Firefox + IE9).

This is a good suggestion. But it's not going to be implemented by Nokia/Nemein now as they are transferring maemo.org to the new nonprofit. The nonprofit will need someone to manage the website. I encourage any of you to volunteer to do this.
