I'm OK with this as well. I especially wish to call to the attention to others
who may do mechanical wiki edits like this (by Mateusz' good example) that he
was careful to:
1) Explain the problem; it confuses mappers/map consumers and wiki
authors/readers,
2) Offer a polite proposal as well
Replacing the deprecated `wikipedia:en` tags with newer `wikipedia` tags sounds
like a great idea. As mentioned on Slack, I agree that if you can add
`wikidata` tags at the same time, even better.
Thank you for your work on this!

Old style wikipedia link is one where language is stored in key, not in value.
For example "wikipedia:en=Kansas" is an old style link, while
"wikipedia=en:Kansas"
is a form that is currently standard.
Many old-style Wikipedia links remain and updating them to new style manually is
boring,
