Most of these languages are pretty terrible to run at scale. Also, all of the examples you cite a rather the "in spite of" kind. Wikipedia? Struggles to maintain the code base, lest to speak of significant new development. Wordpress? Afterwit of web security. Facebook? Facebook literally developed a new PHP implementation (edit: actually, two) and then turned that into a separate language (which is statically typed) because that's easier than to clean up their PHP code base. YouTube? Maybe some help pages are still on Python. The application most likely isn't at all. GitHub? Goes down every few days with 500s after buggy code was deployed.
