So why exactly shouldn't it be one of the top links in a search for the term? At this point, practically 100% of the people Googling it will be searching for that exact article and information.
Are people really so stupid that when they want to see an article on Wikipedia, they type their search into Google rather than just going straight to Wikipedia? Really, if someone is taking the trouble to type a phrase into Google, they are likely looking for more than just the basic stuff
that should be in an encyclopedia. Personally, I find the number of sites that have scraped WP to be an impediment to finding what I'm looking for (but that isn't really WP's fault).
Interestingly, "glitter bombing" (with quotes) is still number two Google results (behind a Huffington Post piece), and number one without quotes.
