Hi Marco,

I run this tool. Quick answers:

1. Yes. If you have a Labs account, you can see everything in database
s51434__mixnmatch_p . You can also get most of the data via the API
(undocumented; ask me for specifics, check out the requests of the
interface in the browser, or try the source code at
https://bitbucket.org/magnusmanske/mixnmatch/src/63c9ba58dd236e0aeb5a7ad12315047d787530f0/public_html/api.php?at=master&fileviewer=file-view-default
)

2. Anyone can match entries to Wikidata items. I added most of the
catalogs, but you can also do that yourself at
https://tools.wmflabs.org/mix-n-match/import.php .

Cheers,
Magnus
