Are there alternatives to Wikipedia?

Are there alternatives to Wikipedia? In English? In Hebrew? A multilingual alternative? Please give specifics.

Clarification: by "alternative" i mean an internet  encyclopedia that everyone can edit (i.e. a wiki) and which can be read and cited freely.

http://www.helium.com (more like a wiki magazine rather than an encyclopaedia)

http://www.wikihow.com (more like a wiki manual)

Thanks a lot, drabsv. I gave you two thumbs up, because your answer is relevant, sourced and non-trivial (these are my three criteria for grading an answer with two thumbs).

 I'm leaving this thread open for now, though, because i would like to know of as many Wikipedia alternatives as possible, and maybe someone else has more links to contribute.

Your second link, open-site.org, is the closest to what i have in mind, since it's dot-org and multilingual.

If you're looking for a really specific niche, look at wetpaint.com, intodit.com or wikispaces.com.
