I am still having difficulty figuring out where exactly Wikibooks is supposed to mesh with Wikipedia in the grand Wikimedia scheme...to read some of the discussions there, it would seem that they don't think any kind of "meshing" suitable at all, which seems ridiculous to me...
And similarly, Wikitravel. There is such a lot of duplication of effort on city articles. IMHO, a wikitravel article on a city should basically be a great big {{wikipedia:en:Paris}} followed by "the best bars are..." and "don't forget to buy a metro ticket". There's plenty of information in Wikitravel that ought to be present in Wikipedia as well, and a vast amount of the opposite situation.
