There are many nodes and edges missing. It would be great if the underlying graph was on a wiki. Maybe this content could be added to Wikidata ( http://www.wikidata.org/ ).

Good idea, but everyone would just claim that their favourite language was inspired by Haskell and the data would become meaningless.

You may be interested in DBpedia, which gets its data from wikipedia but presents it in a structured format (for example, the page for Clojure: http://dbpedia.org/describe/?url=http://dbpedia.org/resource...), though for this case, it seems the data is already on wikipedia.
