Every website will have dead external links somehow are other. But for Wikipedia with its sheer amount of articles, it will have countless of dead links for sure.
Wikipedia describes a dead link is a link which is no longer active or which leads to a 404 not found page. A dead link in Wikipedia article or in its citation indicates its moderators that this dead link needs to be fixed or should be replaced with a working link.

Hello dera,
               As Wikipedia provides no follow links, getting backlinks from Wikipedia will take time and requires patience. Let us see what you can do to get backlinks from Wiki.

             Building quality backlinks have been always a give and take relation. Therefore, you will have to give something before you can receive backlinks from sites like Wikipedia.
            First step is to join Wikipedia as an editor.
Next step is to spend time (lots of it) to edit the content in Wikipedia and to help Wiki maintain its content.
Do not edit content just for the sake of editing. The editing that you do must be accurate or else you may be removed as an editor.
Other Wiki editors will be watching you and if they suspect any wrongdoing, they will report you.
Pick articles in Wiki that has the scope for you to add more details to it.
Research studiously for information that you can provide to that page and ensure that the content is well presented.
You can cite reliable sources while providing information to Wiki pages.
Once you have developed a trusted history in Wiki, you can add your links on pages that have content that are relevant to your products or services.
             Ensure that you provide the reason why the link you have provided will be useful.
Keep searching for content that is relevant to your business and sketch out plans on how you can add links to that page.
Add links that are relevant, or it will be deleted by other editors.
            DO NOT spam Wiki with links, as it will hurt you badly. Be organic and add links in a smart manner.
