CPAN Guides is a hypothetical Perl community project inspired
That's a failure from the start. By assuming your suggestion will be a "community project", not much work will ever get done. Community projects are (large), existing projects, that already have proven to be worthwhile. Perl didn't start as a community project either, instead, it started as the project of one man. Who slowly got a few people to supply patches, and only after a long time, it because a community project.

If you think this suggestion has merit, start working on it. Build the infrastructure. Set up your website. If "the community" likes it, it'll embrace it and turn it into a "community project". If not, oh, well. Too bad.
