There are even numerous categories within lifestyle, which could also be one of the reasons why they're all piled up as emerging interests. There are numerous and numerous of sports wikis, and even that is a challenge to get them all working together, and that's not even taking maybe double or triple the number of other wikis into account. My angle with this threads is more like how small business get together to discuss and share (meet and greets)- even if their businesses have nothing in common. Discussing challenges, sharing ideas and helping out in some way. We have similar problems and technically I guess it could be the case for any wiki but narrowed down to the Lifestyle/Emerging interest angle.

Staff said to me they have a list of wikis they have in mind already- and I was put on it. I thought reaching out here and now before they make contact might show other potential wikis not yet on this list to be considered.

And TBH I am partially distracting myself with a new positive project after hearing a friend of mine passed away this week and he was a computer/tech guy and very generous and helpful. I thought especially with the current scare people are having world wide Wikis can be a safe and productive and positive volunteer environment that could provide a distraction and reach out to people who may just want a little bit more wiki support.
