[Imports] List of hospitals, schools in Germany

Hello everyone,

I want to import multiple datasets, where each dataset is a list of a 
category of POIs, for example schools, hospitals or other public 
infrastructure. Each dataset is already publicly available and already 
published by national or federal states of EU countries via there open 
data portals, for example in Germany.
 From a technical perspective, the data will be cleaned (e.g. outdated 
data) and if required supplemented (e.g. missing coordinates, meta info) 
or fixed/merged (e.g. displaced coordinates or duplicates) in a review. 
At the end the data is in form of a changeset xml.

Licensing wise, at the moment each dataset is published with a different 
license. Judging from the compatibility matrix[3], some of them are not 
compatible, though for example Wiki/Contributors[4] states that in case 
of e.g. using CC-BY 4.0 i's already possible with special waivers. But I 
think this will easier to decide on a case-by-case basis, when I share 
the sources of the original data and the prepared changeset-data.

I've already read the wiki post on imports[1] and especially the 
guidelines [2]. Additionally I skimmed the existing imports in europe[4] 
and existing or requested permissions [5].

Quesions:
* Where or how do I upload/share the changesets for review with you, 
before uploading it to OSM?
* Suggestion: When to create multiple wiki pages? Does grouping around 
the original publishing organization makes sense, especially when 
discussing about the meta data tags of a category of POIs is necessary?
* Suggestion: I'll use a ref-tag when there is a designated column in 
the dataset. Additionally when there is a website to search for the ref 
number, then I will include (in the best case) a restful ressource. The 
source and source:meta Tags are used where appropriate.

I'm happy to answer any questions!
