I won't be getting into coordinate cleanup ;-)
Coordinates would have to be compatible with https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P625

We will also need a coordinate transformation since all official Finnish coordinates are in EPSG:3067. Before or in MixnMatch.

Does that imply coordinates in Mix'n'match? Because there is no support for that yet, though I could add it. Do you have an example catalog (existing or to-be-created)?
For YSO places, it would be possible to create a Mix'n'Match catalog where the majority of places have coordinates. YSO places doesn't itself contain coordinates, but the Finnish places within it have been mapped to the Place Name Registry (Paikannimirekisteri) maintained by National Land Survey of Finland (Maanmittauslaitos), which includes point coordinates for all places. So it would be possible to pick the coordinates from there for the 4400 or so places that have been mapped, if that helps with the linking in Mix'n'Match.
