I have been fixing nodes that have wikipedia but no wikidata tags [1], and
even the first two randomly picked nodes had identical problem - article
was renamed (twice!) without leaving redirects  - node 1136510320

Try it yourself - run the query and see what the it points to.

Imre, I think at this point it might be better to have both, just as a
safety check. But I can already see that they get misaligned - articles
keep getting renamed, so we will be stuck mindlessly updating wikipedia
tag. Feels a bit like a busywork for the sake of work, but might be needed
for a bit.
