The data you're proposing taking from Wikipedia is probably derived, via
Google, from that same TeleAtlas (or Navteq) data.

It doesn't seem plausible that deriving information from TA data is fine,
provided it's done at arm's length via a Wikipedian who didn't read the
Google Maps terms of use.

These explicitly say that you must not "make derivative works of the Content
or any part thereof", or give "access to mass downloads or bulk feeds of any
Content, including but not limited to numerical latitude or longitude
coordinates".
