Well, as said, for Wikipedia wiki worked very well. That doesn't mean it works as well for other projects. A wiki means several things at once, and it is one of them (the wiki philosophy of free editing and control afterward instead of in advance) that made Wikipedia work where Nupedia did not. Wiktionary would I think work better in an environment with the same philosophy but a different technology (more database-like rather than marked up text). Wikiquote and Commons might well profit from a similar switch. For Wikisource the whole 'free editing' concept itself does not seem as suitable, or at least, not as necessary.
IMHO, wikiway could be useful for Wikisource, to produce free translation. Even if an artwork is free from rights (For example : ''Hamlet'' from Shakespeare), it does not mean a free french (or arab, spanish or bambara) translation of this artwork exists. But for the original work, wiki is not only unnecessary but even damaging.
