For promoting Wikimedia's own projects, the template is more justifiable, but even there, I would prefer if this was regarded more as meta data than as article content. Generating sister project links automatically, or having them as part of the interface rather than the article would be far preferable. Anthere made a request in bugzilla related to this last year (http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=708).
Eh, I'd prefer that they stay as is - I use them only when there's useful stuff where I'm linking, like more photos than will fit, or when there's an official document on Wikisource about the subject of the article (like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1945_Florida_State_Road_renumbering , which I really need to get back to).
