Hi Jonathan,
I'm not sure if I understood all about this project, but might this help
a bit? This shows up the local meetups (some with photos) of OSM
http://usergroups.openstreetmap.de (uses a bot and wiki templates to
generate the map generated by users)
Another starting point for such crowd source editing might be:
www.openstreetbugs.org
www.aphes.com/map/
bye
Matthias
