Some Wikis are so similar that we'd probably be best to merge and combine our efforts. These include:
See also some of the open design projects mentioned at the wikia:Wikipedia:Portal:Open_design

Some neighbouring Wikis
Below is a list of Wikis relevant to themes of Development and Sustainability:
http://ecovillage.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
Ecovillage wiki is a site for exchanging information
and ideas about ecovillages in particular, and
sustainable community in general.
This Wikia will facillitate ecovillages to develop
regional and global networks. It provides a place for
individual ecovillages to edit relevant documents and
for individuals in different geographic locations to
collaborate. It will also be a knowledge base for
people to learn about ecovillages generally, or about
a particular ecovillage.
http://ecovillage.wikia.com/
http://gknowledge.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
G. Knowledge is the definitive repository of green
knowledge. G.Knowledge will bring together the collective
knowledge of green thinking people throughout the world to
produce a collective memory to take from and to deposit the
deep knowledge of the world.
The success of a greener, happier, safer, friendlier,
cleaner, more productive world relies on passing on the
knowledge of green minded individuals and their
collective wisdoms. Green Knowledge is not a commodity,
it's a necessity." Note this is not actually a wikia, but directs people to their page.
http://gknowledge.wikia.com/
http://sca21.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
Sustainable Community Action, or SCA21, is a Wikia
to develop information on all aspects of local sustainability,
particularly community run action for sustainability.
As well as providing a Local Sustainability Ideas Bank,
the site contains a shared work space for developing
ideas for networking, both virtual and real world, for
local sutainability action across the UK.

How tos
There may be some overlap between ours and these wikis:
http://howto.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
How To Engineer It will be a comprehensive
encyclopaedia of technology which answers questions about how to make modern products in the natural environment from scratch.
http://howto.wikia.com/

wikiHow The How-To Manual That Anyone Can Write or Edit
http://www.wikihow.com/Main-Page
http://campaigns.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
The Wikia for Campaigns recently set up by Jimbo Wales, aims to explore new ways of doing politics and campaigns.
http://campaigns.wikia.com/
http://worldcitizen.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
The Wikia for World Citizenship, Global Justice and
Global Governance aims to create a new space for
publishing and discussing opinion articles on topics
related to world citizenship, global justice & global
governance. The wiki is construed as a combination of
an open journal, a thematic non-neutral encyclopedia
and an open discussion forum. Although it is expected
to attract people from the world citizenship and global
justice movement, the wiki welcomes all sorts of
opinions, statements and comments provided with respect
for each other position.
http://worldcitizen.wikia.com/
http://activism.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
The Activism Wikia is a place for sharing information about all forms of activism. http://activism.wikia.com/
http://activeworlds.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
The Active Worlds Wikia is about the virtual reality Active Worlds community. http://activeworlds.wikia.com/
http://search.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
The Search Wikia accompanies the development of the Wikia search engine, an open source search engine with user editable search results. The search index is being created using the Wikiasari http://search.wikia.com/index.php/Wikiasari software, which is currently in a beta version. This Wikia serves as a sounding board for ideas and development, and a place for the search community to discuss the project. http://search.wikia.com/
http://translation.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
The Translation Wikia is for collaborative translations of free texts and fair use extracts. The wiki also provides a meeting space with information about translation, and from translators. Information and discussion on the theory and techniques of translation will be included. http://translation.wikia.com/
http://censorship.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
Censorship is a Wikia which will provide official and unofficial accounts on censorship, particularly internet censorship in areas such as Iran, so that international observers and activists have a better picture about the situation of freedom of information. The wiki is a space to gather information and analysis on effective ways to bypass censorship. http://censorship.wikia.com/
http://future.wikia.com/images/b/bc/Wiki.png
Future is a Wikia about futurology, technology foresight, and futures studies. This wiki aims to develop future forecasts (using scenarios, timelines, etc.), and to write speculative articles on future topics. The wiki's logo is a combination of a nanogear and the A molecule, which signifies the importance of nanotech and biotech. The "wikia: " brackets show that it's a wiki. http://future.wikia.com/

(Adapted from The Peace-elements WikiNode, and still needing work... my current idea is to make a single WikiNode on Wikia.com, if possible, for this area.)
