::From a discussion we had on this on Memory Alpha, specifically about the sidebars, "in [[MediaWiki:Common.css]], you will, for example, see that the formatting definitions for a sidebar table ("table.wiki-sidebar", right at the top) contain margin definitions like "margin-bottom:1em". Similar definitions exist for many other "table" or "div" classes. This definition means that, wherever a sidebar is added to a page, it will be followed by a "gap" of 1em height (where "em" is a unit relating to font size)"

::One other thing... I'm not sure that I really see this excessive white space on these articles.  Take [[The Big Bang]] for example.  The whitespace there, on my FireFox browser using Monaco, is minimal, and just enough to separate the templates/tables.  The source for that page is of this style too:
<pre>
{{infobox whatever
}}
{{semi-protect}}
{{another template}}
'''Subject''' was . . .
</pre>
::Which pages are you seeing this excessive white space issue on?  Is it possible that the template itself is carrying extra blank space inside itself? -- [[User:Sulfur|sulfur]] 16:56, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
