So, what's happened to Wikipedia pages in search results? Maybe this is just happening to me but I can never find them.

For example, I searched for a 20 year old movie I was watching so I could read about the movie. Nothing comes up except entertainment blogs, which I never read. I specifically put Wikipedia in the search and I get articles in different languages.

The only way to get to the page I'm looking for is to search for an actor and hit the link to their wiki page in the blurb Google puts at the top.

Is anyone else having similar issues getting results that you're actually looking for?

Google has gone to shit in recent years. Ive had it ignore all the fancy just to serve nonsense.

This. It serves literally nothing but useless SEO websites.
