I believe that the issue of concern has been confused: We're not worried
about the articles, we're worried about the slogans that are used on the
various main pages. Either Wikipedia is "the free encyclopedia" or it is
not; it's not the place of Wikiquote to decide on a new tagline, any more
than it is appropriate for Wikiquote to change the Wikipedia logo to another
one. By the same token, it is not the place of Wikipedia to decide if
Wikisource is "the free library" or not; whatever is the official slogan of
Wikisource is what needs to be put in the little box on the main page that
links to all the other projects.

Thus the article about Wikisource in Wikipedia
should follow Wikipedia
rules about articles in its principal namespace. In

Just to be clear here. This is not about sister
project articles but rather the ~3-6 words that
accompany the logos at the bottom of the Main Page and
various other community pages.
I agree Wikipedia articles about sister projects in
the article namespace should follow normal rules for
any such article.
