coupling

On the Wikipedia page on dependency injection, the disadvantages section tells us this:

Dependency injection increases coupling by requiring the user of a subsystem to provide for the needs of that subsystem.

with a link to an article against dependency injection.

Dependency injection makes a class use the interface instead of the concrete implementation. That should result in decreased coupling, no?

What am I missing? How is dependency injection increasing coupling between classes?
