wikipedia tag links to 404

Often article was moved without leaving redirect and wikipedia tag should be edited to point to the new one.
Article may be deleted and no longer existing, or link was never valid. In such cases wikipedia tag should be deleted.

should use a secondary wikipedia tag - linking from wikidata tag to a human
linked wikidata entry (Q55855199)(Karl Philipp Lohbauer article) is about a human, so it is very unlikely to be correct
subject:wikipedia=* or name: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

wikipedia wikidata mismatch - wikipedia points to disambiguation page and wikidata does not
wikidata and wikipedia tags link to a different objects, because wikidata tag points to a redirect that should be followed
