Given that there are organisations already organised, funded and
operating to preserve and promote open-access research, we might want
to think about focusing on getting deep interoperability with them,
rather than sucking all the content into Wikisource, where we can't
provide half the functionality that they can.

This looks like a job for Wikisource. If nothing else, so long as we can
verify their CC licensing is compatible, we can archive and preserve them
in perpetuity on WS. Unfortunately I've scarcely contributed to WS
personally. I've reached out to a WS admin that I know from Commons. When
they reply I'll cc them on this thread.

Exactly. Sourcing as
a whole across wikipedia already relies too
heavily on primary sources. I regularly tag articles as such.
Well, fair enough then. Good luck for your crusade, and thanks for your
interesting views about what constitutes primary, secondary and
tertiary. I guess I now have an answer about how much sympathy my
suggestion would bring.
