Ive also noticed this. Wikipedia used to always be in the first few results for any Google search I made. It was amazing becauase it was frequently the exact thing I was trying to find.
Now I have to add 'wiki' to the search terms or it wont even show up in the first page.
- adventured 5y agoIt got to the point where over half of all Google search results were producing Wikipedia as the top result. No doubt they noticed and made some targeted adjustments to subtly downrank Wikipedia. Which might be a good thing if it leads to other quality sites getting more traffic.
