Modern search engines are just so stupid trying to outsmart us. When was the last time running a literal search between double quotes produced any significant results for you? Nowadays even with double quotes, they more or less all return what they think i meant depending on a plethora of criteria and not what i asked for.
Thanks for marginalia search engine, it seems to be gaining in content and starts to be more and more useful lately! Though to be fair more *transparent* special-casing like you do for Wikipedia would be welcome in my humble view (eg. for technical documentation pointing to the reference site, etc).
