I like the idea of mentioning that the QR code links to Wikipedia. I worry, 
though, that some GLAMs may not want their collections to link their. Perhaps 
if there was another QR code by the Wikipedia one that linked to the object's 
page on the museum's website, the GLAM might be more interested, and most 
people would probably scan both if they were there anyway.
