It turns out that the codes had been generated using http://www.quirfy.com by mistake.
QRPedia codes are now being printed.
Thanks to all who helped check this!

Yes, it is of interest. It would be nice to tick off Berlin as somewhere we have QRpedia and to know the articles involved.

Did they generate the codes using QRpedia.org, and not just a regular QR code generator?

Dear all,
I am at the Natural History Museum in Berlin right now for the Long Night of Sciences, demoing QRpedia codes, of which there are ca. 30 on display, example at
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:QRpedia_codes_Naturkundemuseum_Berlin... .
Problem: when I am reading these codes with my phone, no matter what language it is set to (normally English, but I also tried Italian and French, and German as a control), only the German-language Wikipedia entry is displayed. I haven't seen this behaviour before.
Any hint or fix would be appreciated.
The codes have been generated by museum staff on the basis of a list I gave them (pasted in below).
