Thomas you need some new word to describe the relationship. We have sister projects. Wikisource for example, wikiquote, etc. The Wikia domains or subdomains represent something a bit more removed. Can we call them half-sister projects? Step-sister? What would you propose.

Jay you seem to be under the assumption that Wikia is a sister. It might be more appropriate to call Wikia your father's new wife or your first cousin from that part of your family that your family doesn't talk to anymore.
I agree with you that Wikia isn't a sister project, although arguably we have the same father so in a sense we are sisters. However, I'm not sure I like your alternative - I don't know about you, but I still talk to Jimmy... Citizendium, on the other hand, that could be the cousin you mention.
