.. It not 'necessarily necessary' to make a new Wikimedia project. There has been a suggestion (in the meta or strategy wiki) just to use a namespace in Wikipedia. You could then have a page called http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bib:The_wick_in_the_candle_of_learning
I would say that a page called:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_wick_in_the_candle_of_learning
would be the way to do it. But that would never pass the deletionists. :-)
French Wikipedia already has a namespace dedicated to pages about references.
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A9f%C3%A9rence:Index
There is quite a bit of activity in this namespace:
http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?namespace=104&tagfilter=&title=S...
English Wikipedia has a few groups of citation pages with bots that fill in the details.
