Thanks John for the link.
I've made an edit to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ushuaia_%E2%80%93_Malvinas_Argentinas_Internat... as I've been told that Google will update text in their search results when articles are created and edited. Is that correct? If so, how long will the "fundraising" text potentially be appearing in Google results for you think?
I can confirm that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berry_and_MacFarlane_Monument is displaying correctly in Google results.
Cheers,
Russavia

Russavia asked me to check this to confirm it wasn't just him or his regional Google setup, and it's both correct and looking into it further it's hitting every single page on Wikipedia that Google has indexed.
If you search for "DEAR WIKIPEDIA READERS: You're probably busy, so we'll get right to it. This week we ask our readers to help us. This week we
ask
our readers to protect our site:en.wikipedia.org" we're both getting 6,100,000 results.
If you take, at random, some pages for that search result, and then try
to
find those pages through a fairly typical, sensible search result using
the
page title or keywords in the article, some search text results show the fundraising banner text, and other pages show a relevant text excerpt
from
the page.
I'll pass this on to the developers too, but hopefully this helps here
too.
The devs have been aware since December 4, based on the date https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T76743 was opened.
