Hi Bryce,

Of those datasets, the City of Adelaide one appears to be the only one 
containing house numbers with some kind of geographical reference, so 
it's got some potential for an import if someone has the time to go 
through it.
The roads dataset doesn't include house numbers, and the Playford 
Property Database doesn't have any kind of coordinates so there'd be no 
way to import those for adding house numbers.

I've been using StreetComplete and Every Door on mobile phones to help 
with mapping house numbers for any buildings drawn into OSM near me 
while walking, otherwise the best way to help out is just going to be 
going out and surveying house numbers.
Tools like Field Papers could be helpful for this to let you print out a 
map, write down house numbers as you go, and then bring it back into an 
editor to add as address nodes in OSM.

Thanks,
Andrew Welch
