should use a secondary wikipedia tag - linking from wikidata tag to a chain store


linked wikidata entry (Q7242652)(Priceline (Australia) article) is about a chain store, so it is very unlikely to be correct
subject:wikipedia=* or brand:wikipedia tag would be probably better (see https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:wikipedia#Secondary_Wikipedia_links for full list of what else may be applicable)
in case of change remember to add such prefix (or remove) wikidata tag if it is present
object categorised by Wikidata - wrong classification may be caused by wrong data on Wikidata
