the common syntax for the generic case is: wikipedia=en:Teak (article title, i.e. "long article title name", NOT "long_article_title_name"). for special (rare) cases you can also add "wikipedia:en=particular article title" (cases, where just the englisch Version is correct, or is an additional version, complementing the generic tagging "wikipedia=en:another article name" (which is translated or could be translated into other languages as well). You do not have to add links to articles in different languages that are already linked within wikipedia, and you should better link missing translations in wikipedia rather than adding additional links to these articles in OSM. The above examples you gave are both "wrong", an alternative would be: wikipedia=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teak but the short version is preferred.
