I think it would be slightly nicer to have a link to say "here is a big list of projects which depend on mathlib, please consider joining them", but right now this is waiting on leanprover/reservoir#49 . For now, I just link to the reservoir home page.

Actually, a third comment: Your discussion is only relevant when adding completely new things to Mathlib, while the page is about any Mathlib contributions (including small fixes or single-lemma additions). So it should be made clear that your new section doesn't always apply (and maybe the section should be later?)
