Wikipedia articles can contain slashes (/). Wikipedia accepts them in urls escaped or not, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baltimore%2FWashington_International_Airport
and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baltimore/Washington_International_Airport
return the same page, and neither redirects to the other.
The generator attempts to decode urls from OSM tags, and then encodes '%' again when it converts them back into urls.
My guess is that some of the tags that are not urls still have url encoding in them, but determining which are actually url-encoded and which just have % in them is a little tricky, and the generator doesn't do that.
It looks like some of the resulting urls are encoded twice, thankfully a small number:
https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanngjutarm%25C3%25A4starens_hus
with the extra escaped %25s removed becomes: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanngjutarm%C3%A4starens_hus
which the browser converts to: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanngjutarmästarens_hus
