I have been fixing nodes that have wikipedia but no wikidata tags [1], and even the first two randomly picked nodes had identical problem - article was renamed (twice!) without leaving redirects - node 1136510320
Try it yourself - run the query and see what the it points to. [1] https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Link_Improvement_Project#Missing_Wikidata_tags Imre, I think at this point it might be better to have both, just as a safety check. But I can already see that they get misaligned - articles keep getting renamed, so we will be stuck mindlessly updating wikipedia tag. Feels a bit like a busywork for the sake of work, but might be needed for a bit.
