Results may differ: you're seeing the same effect I am if the first doesn't return english wikipedia anywhere in the first ten pages, but the second has it as the third hit. Obviously, throwing wikipedia in as a keyword isn't the right way to bring wikipedia up in a result, but a lot of people do it, and it's usually very effective. I've found some cases where it has stopped being effective and I'm not sure why.
