http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/template:howto {{howto}} DID contain links to 
http://www.wikihow.com and http://howto.wikia.com/ One is a sister project. 
The other is more closely allied with google and penis enlargement product 
comparisons. I also found either a performance or a connectivity difference. 
In specific instances, like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kombucha , both 
could be in the external links. It seems that we are now recommending 
wikiversity and wikibooks for training.
