I think this is just because of terms you have searched. In my test-searches Wikipedia has not come up once in first position (i think the highest was 3rd in the list).

Here's what I've tried with a few variations: golang generics proposal, machine learning transformer, covid hospitalization germany

I think maybe it's a special insert at the top, but only if a Wikipedia page is found that matches you search term? I'm not sure now though.
