These are my favourites amongst the suggestions by other people, though several have been tweaked by me.
- Proposal:Keep the servers running
- Proposal:Be nice
- Proposal:Text-to-speech
- Proposal:Values
- Proposal:More photographs (I added a bit to this one)
- Proposal:Endow a prize

- Proposal:Involving older people
- Proposal:Show number of users watching a page

Ones I like but don't think are realistic
- Proposal:Wikipedia Fund (I think we can and should ask people to consider leaving us money for an endowment fund in their wills, but I don't see the point of asking the living for money we don't yet need)
- Proposal:Wikipedia in homeless shelters (needs a rewrite and to turn it into internet access, but a great idea if a tad expensive at the moment)
- Proposal:Host Wikipedia from Space This would be cool. Perhaps in the future it might even be sensible.
Some I'm really not keen on
- Proposal:Delete All Wikimedia Projects
- Proposal:Change the name of the Wikipedia website to OmniScience
- Proposal:Official Anthem for English Wikipedia I'm also a fan of Tell me Lies, but I don't think its out of copyright yet
My Proposals
I also like my own proposals but don't think I'm the best judge of their priority against other users' ideas.
- Proposal:Speedy deletion - 24 hour pause for some articles
- Proposal:List of Wikimedians by number of edits - we now have meta:User:Emijrp/List of Wikimedians by number of edits
- Proposal:Auto sign on talk pages - now withdrawn as {{LiquidThreads}} should do this
- Proposal:Actually delete old deleted articles
- Proposal:Welcome all useful new users, if necessary by a bot
- Proposal:Approach potential merger partners, and be open to mergers and partnerships
- Proposal:More multi dialect wikis
- Proposal:Unblock formerly open IP addresses
- Proposal:Allow IPs to edit sections on English Wikipedia (done)
- Proposal:Enable merging of accounts, and do this to abusive sockpuppets
- Proposal:Require all new user Accounts to start as anonymous
- Proposal:No Advertising - nuff said
- Proposal:Kick start languages where Wikipedia is weak
- Proposal:Survey Former users - this then happened
