The name of the site is shown above the result. It also has a three-dot menu to the right and clicking on the dots shows the Wikipedia entry for the site. All the more reason for network sites to now have their own page.

It strikes me as kind of incongruous that Google, one of the biggest corporations in the world, is using Wiki, a not-for-profit that was founded in the early and more idealistic years of the internet, to add some gravitas to its search.

Is it true that Google is inundated by billions of articles that it's suffering from a system overload, and unable to give quality attention to new and better written articles? Just imagine, the poor Google crawler had to sift through 14 million articles to come up with 10 results on page 1 for a...
