Dear all,
I have started a new RFC with some proposals for the interproject links and you can add more if you want. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/Interproject_links_inte...
It has been a long standing issue and one of the most voted enhancements in Bugzilla https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=708
To have the sister projects templates at the bottom of the page it is also one of the reasons why sister projects have been also so hidden from the eyes of the big public, and now with Wikidata also the issue of maintainability can be addressed as well (similar problem as with interlanguage links).

Very intereting. I'm working on a template[1] that I want to propose to the french wikipedia community to respond to the following issue: some articles are taking for granted that the reader will know certain non-trivial concepts. My idea would be to give the reader an opportunity to quickly check that it doesn't lake such a knowledge requirement through a box which would list each concept with the relevant wikipedia article, but also the relevant wikiversity course if the reader would like to follow such a sturctured material on this topic.
For now I have to finish the template so I can go to the community with a a working example and let them decide on something else than mere "textual description mockup". I know not everybody will be enthusiastic with this idea, especially given that (at least on the french chapter) wikiversty courses are not equal in quality, but to my mind this is a vicious circle: poor quality->few visibility->few contributors->poor quality.
