As for mapping Wikipedia templates to wikidata properties I think James F. mentioned something about including that into templatedata https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/TemplateData
Well, that's perhaps the even better idea. However, I could not find that suggestion yet.
I think it would be cool to use http://mappings.dbpedia.org/ - it already has mappings for hundreds of templates in different language versions to the dbpedia vocabulary. If we added a mapping for wikidata <-> dbpedia, it should be easy enough to derive a mapping between a wikipedia template and wikidata. Actually, I was under the impression the wikidata <-> dbpedia already existed, but I don't see it on the site right now. Adding Anja Jentzsch, she might know.
Even if it proves too tricky to map individual template parameters this way, it should still be possible to at least detect the class (instanceof) of an item based on the templates the respective wikipedia page contains. We should definitely map dpedia classes to wikidata items.
