As you can imagine, the Italian WLM is facing the issue
of compiling/sincronizing lists of documents.

We have:
* one official list of the Ministry, which is NOT open data, and we
will ask permission for that (legal team)
* one list (ca. 30'000 monuments) taken from Open Street Map
* several smaller lists scattered around

We are taliking with one memeber of OSM community,
and he showed us that awesome site.
You can fill in a form and the monument is settled on the map, and in
the OSM database.
It seems it would be a scalable system to have a collaborative
improvement of databases...
Or do you think it is a bad idea?

It would have the (amazing) side effect of increasing the bond between
WM and PSM community too.
