Fraunhofer-Institut für Physikalische Messtechnik IPM - an affected OSM element that may be improved

overpass query usable in JOSM that will load all objects where this specific error is present:

should use a secondary wikipedia tag - linking from wikipedia and wikidata tag to a vehicle model or class
linked wikidata entry (Q260674)(DR-Baureihe 85 article) is about a vehicle model or class, so it is very unlikely to be correct
subject:wikipedia=* or model: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
