Actually, this category has been discussed a countless number of times,
and most often under a name of "wikicompendium". It would be good, for
instance, for minor languages, where there may be not enough speakers to
support a wikipedia and not so many sources to support a wikiquote or a
wikisource, but if you put them all in one basket it may be a project with
a chance to survive. The same is with the dead languages (with an obvious
exception for latin, which is good enough to support all the projects),
and possibly even with conlangs.
