The issue:
http://wikisource.org is supposed to be a portal, a portal with links to the different versions of the project. just like all the other projects, the main domain a portal..the sub-domains contains the different versions..except for the multilingual projects (commons + meta) which don't have any sub-domains and have their main pages in English as default and main pages in many other languages. so commons.wikimedia.org or meta.wikimedia.org are considered to be the 'portals' or better..they don't have portals (all content on one wiki) or there are no metawiki.org or commonswiki.org so they don't have a portal and that is of course made intentionally (they don't need that ball surrounded by languages)..
We've generally considered this to be a matter for the Wikisource community to decide. The reason Wikisource was not split into subdomains at the same time as the other projects, and the reason there remains a "central" Wikisource, is because that's how they voted.
