I know... but it still ranks really high and it's annoying because it's usually not the page that has the useful info when I'm searching.

I guess what works for some people doesn't work for others; most often when I'm looking for something I enjoy the wikipedia article on it and think that it's relevant. Also, a lot of times I don't actually go to google but type my query into the search bar (google is set as my default) so a search happens. It takes me to the first site, and most of the time it's wikipedia I want / get.

But I may just be an edge case. Hm.

No, I'm in your boat too. I almost always find the answer I'm looking for in the Wikipedia article, if there is one.
