Is it "MetaWikipedia", "Metawikipedia", "Meta Wikipedia" or "Meta-Wikipedia"?

Here's a voting forum:

"Meta-Wiki" or similar - Dave McKee
I'd also like to see some attempt at clearly defining the purpose of this meta space - from a pessimistic viewpoint it could easily end up becoming a wiki-usenet.
