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.
