I doubt we can find 1000 works with PD translations into each Wikisource language,
including Latin and Sanskrit.
It would be hard to find 10. Mostly ancient.
Unlike Wikipedia, we present content that has already been created by somebody. We are not
creating that ourselves.
(except few ws accepting Wikisource translations)

Hi Nemo,
We may establish a list a the "1000 works that every Wikisource should
have" (with translation possibly needed).
What metric could we use to define such a list? Maybe reference
frequency, but it requires statistics whose availability is unknown to me.
Statistically,

One issue sometimes raised about Wikisource is
how we know that we're
working on the "right" books. Internet Archive is planning to
textbooks starting from those which are most frequently assigned in
USA schools:

I was surprised to learn a project like OpenSyllabus exists and works,
I emailed them to ask what it would take to do the same for other
languages/geographies.
