I’m not gonna link all the cards here since I’m pretty sure it’ll set off the site’s spam filter, but:
 
  • A lot of them put other cards on the battlefield, Polymerization-style: Urborg Panther, Kyscu Drake, Dark Supplicant, Sift Through Sands, the Herald cycle from Shards of Alara, Nissa Revane, Arachnus Spinner, and the meld cards from Eldritch Moon.  
  • Liberating Combustion and Verdant Crescendo put named planeswalker cards in your hand. My guess is that Aether Revolt will make them part of a five-color cycle.  
  • Bogbrew Witch isn’t the only such cycle: there’s also the Sword, Shield, and Helm of Kaldra from Mirrodin block and the Crown, Scepter, and Throne of Empires from Magic 2012.  
  • Rohgahh of Kher Keep gives +2/+2 to Kobolds of Kher Keep, Liu Bei, Lord of Shu gets +2/+2 from Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and Pious Kitsune has lifegain if Eight-and-a-Half-Tails is on the battlefield.  
  • Kookus and Marauding Maulhorn attack every turn without the right creatures to keep them in check.  
  • Diligent Farmhand and Pardic Firecat count as different cards in the graveyard for the sake of those cards’ effects.  
  • Finally, Ruin in Their Wake and Walker of the Wastes have to refer to Wastes by name, since it isn’t a basic land type.

I’m not saying that a Basic Land Creature can’t be a thing (animating a land does that), but it’s basically a design rule that only Lands would have the Basic supertype.
 
As to the other point, I’m genuinely curious as to what some of those are. I know the Bogbrew Witch Cycle and the artificer from Fate Reforged that can seek out a Khans artifact and/or a Dragon artifact, but that’s all I’m familiar with.

Supertypes aren’t limited the way subtypes are. You can have a basic creature card; it just doesn’t mean anything under the rules… unless that creature becomes a land. (Suppose this guy becomes a Saproling while Life and Limb is on the battlefield.)
 
And by my count, there are 34 cards that name-check other cards. It’s gimmicky as hell, but not as rare as you’d think.

Basically what Cinderheart said.
 
“Basic” is a Land-only supertype. There is no such thing as a “Basic” anything else.
 
That being said, a 3/3 flyer for 3 CMC is pushing it, especially for White. I’d probably put it as 3W.
 
The card-checker ability is pretty gimmicky, which is why there’s only about five or six (I think?) cards in Magic that do such a thing.

Dafuq is a basic creature, and the creature type should be soldier. Also, wording should be “As long as you control a creature named Celestia, Goddess of the Sun, Solar Guard has lifelink.”
