Hi,
I've waited long to respond to this thread, but I've followed it since the
begin.

I think we should proceed with the bulk importation and set up a
maproultette (or similar) system to do QA on Wikidata tags.

Also, I would add that Wikidata is different from many (or all) other
databases since:
1. it can give REAL value to OSM users (while most dbs don't)
2. It's philosophically close to OSM (while most dbs aren't)
3. WMF and OSM Foundations are working toghether on many projects, and this
could be an awesome new piece to add to this collaboration

These are my 2 cc,
Fabio A Locati
