It sounds like all you want is a way to place a specific point of interest in 
OSM, after having already placed it in wikimapia.org. I would recommend you use 
the yahoo imagery for this, it should be possible to position it within a few 
tens of metres using even the lowest-resolution imagery. Without knowing where 
your POI is located there may or may not be other methods of placing it (using 
NPE maps in the UK for example). But the best option is to take a GPS device to 
the location and read what it says. I know not everyone has a GPS device so 
this isn't always possible.

I've just taken a look at the legal page on wikimapia.org (if you can call it 
that; it's actually a floaty-type window rather than a proper page) and I would 
steer well clear of this for the purposes of OSM.
