Easy:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interwiki#Shorthand_for_non-wiki_sites
For Wikia: http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Interwiki_map

But this touches the critical point: The real question is, howto
organize/access existing contributions (and contribution channels) from
a wiki.

Wikipages are generic, while tips, scripts, plugins, helpfiles etc. have
more structure and - perhaps because of that - an established
infrastructure.

There is nothing against writing new things freely in the wiki and then,
afterwards, copy them to svn or make a script/plugin/syntax-file/tutor
or whatever ... Probably one could also easily write some html-form that
submits a tip/script to the database on vim.org

I would like to see the VimWiki as a kind of portal to the plethora of
vim-related material. (Recall the slogan: Avoid redundancy!)

In such a community-driven portal, each contributor has an interest to
get her contribution found. Thus there is no need for a centralized
management as on vim.org.

A question to the experienced users/developers: How is that plethora
organized internally? What are the main (most important, most popular)
sections? 

Sebastian.
