Presumably there's some geographical matching criteria too (so each 
"Black Hill" in the "hills" list is matched to the correct one)?

If so, is there a licence issue where wikidata has imported from 
wikipedia, and wikipedia has obtained position information from 
who-knows-where (probably a source not compatibly licensed with OSM)?  
In at least one example(1) there's no wikipedia reference on the OSM node.

Cheers,

Andy
