I'm not sure it'd be a good idea to use "official-looking" link
templates like the ones for Wikisource etc. to link to projects that
don't operate under the fundamental policies of Wikipedia like that. I
suspect it'll blur the line between
NPOV/Verifiable/non-original-research Wikipedia content and whatever
content standards they've got over there.

A set of templates with a different look-and-feel and perhaps an
appropriate disclaimer, on the other hand, might be better. We often
already have plain old external links anyway, though, so I'm not sure
it's needed.
