Old style wikipedia link is one where language is stored in key, not in

For example "wikipedia:en=Ireland" is an old style link, while
"wikipedia=en:Ireland" is a form that is currently standard.
To expand, what do you mean here? What makes one the "standard" and the
other not? What/who consumers wikipedia* tags in OSM and what do they do
with it? Which format is better for the data consumers? If the
wikipedia=en:X format is better than wikipedia:en=X format for data
consumer Y, that's one thing. It just seems to squash a lot of data into
one, and run the risk of losing data, since many wikipedia tags would be
removed from OSM...
