From a privacy point of view a Facebook is a lot worse, since your data goes to a 3rd party instead of staying in Wikimedia servers.

Also we have a "NO to proprietary APIs" policy for mentorship projects like GSoC.

I'm not saying your project is not interesting (it could be an interesting 3rd party app and it could help getting a richer Wikipedia experience for Facebook users) but as it is it would fall out of scope for GSoC.
