1. We already link to Wikipedia using the wikipedia=* tag. I really can't see how wikidata=* is any different.

One way that it is different is that a wikipedia link for e.g. (1) is human-readable ("en:Tate Britain <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/en:Tate%20Britain?uselang=en-GB>") wheras a wikidata one on its own isn't ("Q195436 <http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q195436?uselang=en-GB>"), though I can follow the wikidata link to wikipedia (assuming that's where it's imported from, which has been the case for ALL OSM-linked wikidata entries that I've seen so far).

Cheers,
