I tried 5 different diseases, 4 had wikipedia on the first page, 1 had it on the top of the second page.

Do you mean blocking just that automated text result that appears on the top of the page for some questions? That would make sense, since they probably don't want to boldly state medical facts without context, especially since that feature can be wrong sometimes.

No I meant the result itself, but I see it too now, I thought they were blocked altogether. I don't know if it is changed or it was always just never/rarely near the top (and maybe that legitimately organically happens).

Searching 'ADHD' and Wikipedia's extensive page is midway down the second page of results. Drug ads for amphetamines from Google on 3 or 4 of the first page's results, but not the top few results (which are CDC, NHS, etc.).
