One question that immediately springs to mind - is wikidata in any way 
geographically searchable or extractable, in the same way that OSM is 
via Overpass (like e.g. http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/4VH ) ?  A list of 
mismatches worldwide (while useful in terms of total numbers) isn't 
useful in terms of "what's near me that I might want to have a look at".
