Hi there, I am a member of the wikidata community and from our side we also try to be as integrative as possible. It is really nice to see that there are similar efforts happening on OSM. Really cool!
Not long ago Magnus Manske (CC'ed) released Wikidata The Game. Explained on this blog post http://magnusmanske.de/wordpress/?p=203 And you can play it here: https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-game/ Basically it is a set of gamified tasks in a way that volunteers can do large volume data processing in a fun way. It is really entertaining and addictive! Maybe you could think of a similar way of gamifying the comparison between OSM data and Wikidata?
