On some sister projects such as Wiktionary, Wikisource, Wikiquote, Wikiversity, Wikibooks, or Wikinews, the Nearby feature is redundant. Unlike Wikipedia or Wikivoyage, these projects don’t present geographically-relevant information as separate pages. The link to Special:Nearby in the collapsible sidebar is confusing.
