Although still in the beta test phase, this site already has a lot of useful information on it.
Clicking on the original link
www.FamilySearchWiki.org now redirects to
https://wiki.familysearch.org/en/Main_Page
Click on "Browse by Country" (left hand column, Navigation) and use the alphabetical list there.
For instance: Clicking on Germany leads to a newly styled page, with the following "topic" list in the right hand column:
# Archives and Libraries
# Biographies
# Cemeteries
# Census
# Church Directories
# Church History
# Church Records
# Civil Registration
# Court Records
# Directories
# Dwellings | # Emigration and Immigration
# Gazetteers
# Genealogy
# Heraldry
# Historical Geography
# History
# Jewish Records
# Land and Property
# Language and Languages
# Maps
# Military Records | # Names Personal
# Naturalization and Citizenship
# Newspapers
# Nobility
# Obituaries
# Occupations
# Periodicals
# Population
# Probate Records
# Schools
# Societies |
Different countries, different coverage, but definitely worth a look, and, because it is still growing, it is a site that is worth re-checking (once a month, perhaps ?) to see what has been added for your "favourite" countries.

ps. the old links are also still there (at the moment). It looks like the restyling is fairly new.
